REPORTER: There is a standoff in the Great Plains.
Two hundred Native American tribes
are fighting construction of an oil pipeline.
REPORTER 2: Workers are digging trenches
in Emmons County for the Dakota Access Pipeline.
The North Dakota section would cross under several rivers,
which prompted protest on the Standing Rock and Fort Berthel
reservations about the threat to drinking water supplies.

reservation is now one of North Dakota's

that they had no right to traverse that part of the river.
It was the Sioux, right?
That was the Sioux Indians, that's where they lived.
We offered them food, we gave them a place to stay,
we offered them shelter, and they rebuffed that.
They rebuffed the kinship we tried to make with them,
and that sort of began this failed settler kinship
with this river.
It's not that we were just outright hostile to them
in the beginning.
We tried to make kinship with them in the beginning,

They took hostage to headmen, and used them as protection

♪
1851 was the largest gathering of Native people
in North America, in history.
There was over 30,000 Native people
who were brought in to sign this treaty.
It was a comprehensive treaty.
It involved at least several dozen different tribes
and different nations.
♪
It wasn't just the Oceti Sakowin,
there was all these other river tribes that signed the treaty.
It was a treaty of peace because the US understood itself as
militarily and politically in a weaker position,
and it was mainly to secure the safety and the passage of
their citizens and their people through our lands.
Their offer was peace amongst us
and the various tribes in the region.
It also spelled out the territory that is now known as
the Great Sioux Reservation, which is land between
the Missouri River and the Big Horn Mountains.
♪
This land... is amazing land.
It is where the sun dances happened.
It is where the trade happened.
It is where multiple villages lived in harmony.
♪
September 3rd of 1864,
we were having, as we do every year,
a great gathering of all the people.
My grandmother says that on that day they were playing,
and laughing, and it was a beautiful day.
The meat is drying.
Everybody came and brang all their trade goods,
and we'd trade, and everybody gathers and shares stories
and songs and dance.
(Chanting)
(Horse neighing)
(Chanting)
And then the soldiers came.
(Horse neighing)
And as they came in, it was dusk,
just as the sun was going down.
Our leader, Big Head, had said,
"We have no trouble with the soldiers.
We have never done no wrong."
So they made a white flag out of a white flour sack,
and they put it on a stick.
And they went out to General Sully to talk with him,
to see why they have come.
And as they got there, they surrounded them and took them
prisoners, isolating them from the women and children.
And the women and children were in a panic,
so people were tying their babies to the dogs,
and hitting the dogs and chasing the dogs out.
(Dogs barking)
And the women all gathered and ran down this ravine
as the soldiers got on two sides of the ravine
and started shooting down into the ravine.
(Splashing)
My grandmother was coming across.
She was nine, they shot her.
(Gunshot)
So she laid on that field all night,
and she could tell you about all the screams
and hollers through the night as people were dying.
(Wind blowing)
She said she cried, "Ina, Ina!"
But nobody answered back.
She laid on that field all night.
And as the sun came up,
the order came down to shoot all the dogs.
(Gunshots)
(Dogs whimpering)
"Oh wait, the dogs were carrying the babies."
(Baby crying)
So they loaded up all these children and dogs,
and they loaded up all our meat, and all our hides,
and our homes, and our belongings,
and they started a great bonfire that day.
This is the first what they call slash and burn of the tribes.
(Crackling fire)
So my grandmother survived all this.
After they killed us at that massacre,
they forgot they killed us.
They wiped us off the history.
One day a settler came in and said,
"What are all these bones?"
And they said, "Oh, well, according to this
there was a massacre there."
So even the United States did not remember they killed us.
We remembered they killed us.
Imagine...
Imagine being there in the 1800s,
and you had to-- you had to suffocate your own baby
to not be found.
You had to-- You had to hold their cries in...
so the soldiers wouldn't find you.
Imagine that.
And when you check down and you look down at your baby,
they were dead.
Just to not be found.
When I was little and I was reading in history books and
reading about Lewis and Clark and their expedition and stuff,
like, they never mention in there that, you know,
they were already killing Indians and stuff.
They were already raping Indians.
They were starving 'em.
They were, you know, killing their buffalo.
All that was already going on during all those times too,
but they don't mention that.
And I never would have thought that...
that those are the people that I come from.
That all those people suffered so all of us can be here today.
But we made it though.
We... We're still existing when we're not supposed to be.
(Helicopter whirring)
It was at that time our nation was dissolved.
Our families were separated.
So one brother's at Spirit Lake, one brother's at Fort Peck,
one brother's in Canada.
And so to me, this is the centre of everything that's happening
right now, to me, because that land claim,
our home lands, are what they call "unresolved land claims".
♪
Which Dakota Access is going right through,
right now as we speak.
Nobody, not the United States or anybody
has settled that land claim.
♪
♪
There was no battles; massacre was intended to be that way.
So they could get rid of us.
Why would you want to get rid of somebody, something,
or some people, a human being
that always had its culture, always had its laws?
You know, this law, this English law,
that's foreign to us as a Native peoples.
We have always had law.
We knew how to kin-- governing and teach, and learn,
bring new life into this world, you know.
And that's... that's very beautiful.
(Chanting)
Remember that?
(Chanting)
But you know, a lot of these here, it's their first...
first rodeo for who they are and what they are, you know.
And even where they come from, 'cause you gotta realize that
we went through, what, a hundred years of colonization?
You know, all the Christianity,
all the boarding schools, Catholic schools,
and that form of government that took that-- tried to take that
away from us as a people, you know.
When I went to school, I spoke my language,
you had to eat soap.
Or you got a whipping with a big old razor strap,
and that's the kind they use in them old barber shops.
They'd sharpen them old style razor blades.
Did it hurt?
Yes, it did, but you know,
after a while there I got used to it.
It wasn't a school, it was a concentration camp.
And I'm part of that.
And have I been traumatized?
Do I still feel it?
Yeah, of course I do.
Otherwise I wouldn't be telling my story right now.
(Chanting)
There's so much intergenerational trauma,
so much generational trauma.
Like, so many people are dealing with immense poverty and racism.
(Chanting)
This personal hurt we feel, that's so hard to voice.
Like it's so much easier to say mni wiconi,
water is life, than to say,
"This is my life and this is what's happening to me."
And through that, through mni wiconi,
we've actually been able to talk about missing and murdered
Indigenous women.
We've been able to talk about misogyny and colonial mentality.
You know, I never really thought that, like...
an ecological issue would be something that
ties everything together.
(Chainsaw buzzing)
I've seen an east LA gangbanger with skeleton tattoos
up and down his arms and legs chop wood and feed elders.
I've seen people who are raise-hell,
fist-fighting drunks back home, come up here and line out,
sober up, dry out, and hold themselves to a higher degree
of accountability here than they do back home.
Fact of the matter is that we're an oppressed people
that have been colonized, and we're trying to decolonize.
But here, you know, here it is 2016, and my fucking people
are being attacked by dogs.
You know, and they think because it's rural that's it gonna...
you know, and there ain't no internet service,
that people ain't gonna see it.
Well, guess what, buddy? There's Facebook.
It's time to rise and be who we're born to be...
(Background shouting)
...and define ourselves.
We're people of class and high standards and respect,
regardless of what you may think.
We come from chiefs, dreamers, dancers, singers, hunters,
people that existed on this earth and didn't have greed.
There was no disease here when the white man came.
Ponder on that.
NICK: In 1868, we signed the Fort Laramie Treaty, which was
again another concession on behalf of the United States.
It was a peace treaty.
We didn't go to them and say,
"Hey, we should sign a peace treaty."
They came to us because, again, we were militarily more powerful
and politically more powerful than they were.
And that particular treaty negotiation,
that's where we negotiated and really set the terms that
we do not want any settlers coming into the Black Hills.
It's completely off limits.
They can travel on this road, they can travel on this road,
but they are not allowed into the Black Hills.

Just trying to be peaceful.
I don't think we ever got what we wanted there.
The elders wanted people to go in there because of
the administration, the tribal chairman,
and he had his whole goon squad.
He was-- wasn't doing right to his people, as chairman.
And the elders didn't like it, so they invited...
the American Indian Movement in.
♪
REPORTER: From the frustrations of Indian life
was eventually born a movement dedicated to ending them:
the American Indian Movement.
It first claimed public attention by occupying
the Island of Alcatraz, and over 100 Indians landed on the island
to claim it as their traditional tribal land.
Well, we want our university here.
We want an ecology centre.
We want an Indian museum.
We want a Native American Studies department.
We want to do something here for our own people.
The white man's tried to educate us for the last 400 years,
and it's been a dismal failure.
♪
Alcatraz is probably when I got my first taste of it all.
Security and resistance, always gonna be fighting against.
And I probably didn't run into this guy until later on,
but we was all at Wounded Knee together.
I come from the old-- I always call it the old guard of
the American Indian Movement, the Rosewood Chapter.
And we did a lot of security work where we were called in
ahead of time for different rallies,
or confrontations or whatever.
The thing I remembered about that time was that, you know,
we always had to be armed.
We always had to carry pieces with us because
we never knew what was gonna happen.
You had the opposition to what we were doing always around,
and you never knew, at some point,
if you're gonna get in a fire fight, you know,
out on the road, away from Wounded Knee.
♪
REPORTER: The siege of Wounded Knee is the most serious
confrontation yet between the Indians and the authorities.
A group of militant demonstrators from
the American Indian Movement raided this store,
stole rifles and ammunition,
and proceeded to take over the village.
They dug bunkers and trenches around the town,
and sealed off roads with wrecked cars.
About 200 Indians carried out the takeover.
The dissidents set up their headquarters
in the local church.
What the American Indian Movement most wanted was
a full-scale Senate inquiry, led by Senator Edward Kennedy,
into government treatment of Indians in general,
and the South Dakota Sioux in particular.
The movement's leader at Wounded Knee, Russell Means, also called
for another investigation by Senator William Fulbright
into nearly 400 treaties allegedly signed by the Indians
and broken by the US government.
We felt and we knew that a put-off,
a stalling tactic would happen, once there was no threat
to any other lives other than Indian lives.
When the whites have no more threat to their lives,
you are gonna walk away from here, and say after a while
doksha-lo, you know?
And we're not going for doksha anymore.
♪
People can say what they want about AIM,
whether they're misogynistic, whatever.
There was in-fighting, sure, every movement has that.
There's a lot of things that are said about AIM,
but you can't take away the fact that with what they did,
if they didn't stand up for our rights,
if they didn't stand up for...
the simple fact that we need to be proud to be who we are,
this wouldn't have happened.
Because we have the same future concerns, and that's our water.
Now, in the southwest, the northwest, the...
especially the Plains area, and also the upper midwest,
the multi-national in collusion with
the Bureau of Indian Affairs - in other words,
the Federal government - are after our water.
That's the primary resource right now,
in the name of energy and resource development.
♪
All water flows to the Missouri River.
The Missouri River is the longest waterway in the US.
We often think of the Missouri River as kind of like
a small part of this larger water system, and it's not.
It's the main part of the water for, you know, what now is like
tens of millions of people and countless non-human relatives.
And so, to have control over that life source
is incredibly important.
♪
The Winters Doctrine was a Supreme Court decision,
and what the Supreme Court ruled was that tribes maintain
jurisdiction and control of waterways,
even within a diminished land base,
as long as those waterways are traveling through
original treaty territory.
That's important because that never came up during the 1944
Pick Sloan Act, which authorized the Army Corps of Engineers
and the Bureau of Reclamation to build
a series of five earth enrolled dams
on the main stem of the Missouri River,
primarily on Oceti Sakowin reservation land.
It wasn't that... you know, that we were so far removed
from the river; we were living, like, literally on the water.
♪
If you can imagine when I was a child,
we were almost to the point of being self-sufficient.
We owned our own cattle, our own horses, our own homes.
We lived in the river bottoms where we can plant,
gather medicines, and we hauled our water from the river.
That's the water we drank.
We had a train depot, a train, a grain store,
a bakery, a restaurant.
We had a community.
And then all of a sudden, it was gone.
♪
So the United States decided to build a dam above us,
build a dam below us.
And the tribes were selected as the reservoirs...
we were selected as being expendable.
You have calls by the Army Corps of Engineers,
by these various states commissions to develop and dam
the Missouri River to create this large
irrigation infrastructure, to facilitate
an industrialization of farming techniques,
and pumping out and turning the lifeblood of our river
into electricity for faraway places like Minneapolis.
♪
The water started coming in, and lives changed.
And I remember my dad and them telling me, you know,
they had to move out of their homes and they moved into tents.
They did not know at that time, just like Dakota Access,
that the Army Corps did not have full authority to do that,
to evict people, but they evicted people before they got
the approval from Congress.
They moved the community on top of the hill
in a gumbo-based gravel soil that...
we could no longer garden.
People lost their homes and had to move into government housing,
which they could never own.
Our economics changed, where the Army Corps have bought out
all the businesses, and the businesses
never developed again.
I remember as a child not having food to eat,
which was the first time 'cause we always planted.
I remember the water coming in and watching the trees die.
But what better way to get Indians off their land?
Like, policy doesn't work unless there's force behind it, right?
And we think of often the state as an acting force through
the police, and through the military, right?
We don't think of the state as an acting force through
a large-scale infrastructure project for irrigation,
but it did.
Water is our most precious asset,
and its potential uses are so many and so vital.
And this Missouri River basin power system,
bring to our attention the remarkable progress,
which we've made in one generation in this country.
What happens in this basin
helps all the people of all the country.
I don't think people really understand or really appreciate
the calculation hat was involved.
You have three federal agencies working in tandem
to eliminate Native people, right?
They weren't going out there like they had
in the 19th century and mowing people down with Gatling guns,
but they were mowing people down with paper bills
and laws and dams, right?
It was a different kind of elimination.
I've seen grown men to this day break down, who have recounted
their experiences of just watching the water creep, like
slowly creep and just overtake everything that they once knew.
You know, it happened at a time when we had sent so many
of our people to fight for this country in World War II,
and then they come home to find their lands being destroyed.
They're being forced off the land.
And it was incredibly devastating.
Here you have people who fought and died in numbers that far
exceeded any other demographic in the United States,
and their reward is... is basically death.
♪
Then all of a sudden, the Army Corps said,
"This portion is our land now."
♪
They basically stripped us of all jurisdiction of the river,
in a single act, violating this Winters Doctrine.
We are people of the river.
We embody the river.
Anything you do to that river, you do to us, like our bodies.
And people want to know why Native people are unhealthy.
That's part of the reason, you know.
They polluted and destroyed our... our life source.
They polluted and destroyed our veins,
you know, our blood, and...
I don't think people really understand that,
and it's hard to describe to non-Native people.
And so for us, that is our second unresolved land claim.
And so here we are now with Dakota Access.
What have we done?
I ask you, what have we done?
We have not done anything to anybody.
We have not hurt anybody.
My family... My family fought every service, armed service.
My grandfather, the Lakota code talker,
he won that war in World War I.
My uncle was World War II.
My dad was Korean.
My brothers, Vietnam.
My cousins have been in every war,
fighting with the United States.
What have we ever done?
This is injustice.
Dakota Access does not know what they're doing.
They woke up a giant,
because now we want our land claims dealt with.

All the Indigenous power, red power, like you see it.
Here, you come in and you feel tradition and feel prayer.
You feel the ancestors.
You feel connected to the culture.
Like all of this is really pushing to be traditional,
to be de-colonizing, and that's what I feel like
a lot of our people really yearn for.
And so, when they come in here, not only are they getting that,
and they're getting the unity, and they're getting power,
and they're also fighting for something.
'Cause that mobilizes us and gets us engaged.

Being able to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline,

Settlers have a completely different relationship
to land itself.
So this idea that nature is something to be dominated,
it's something that you take control over
and that you use to your betterment,
to the betterment of human civilization,
that kind of dichotomy between human and nature didn't exist
in Indigenous communities or Indigenous nations
when settlers arrived here, right?
And so part of what they did then was position
Indigenous peoples as wasting the land, as savage,
as less civilized because they hadn't figured out how to use
the land to work in the service of human civilization.
And part of the way that they were able to justify
the dispossession of Indigenous homelands was by attacking and
breaking Indigenous communities by going after women.
She is but a squaw.
Among the Indians, she is less than nothing!

That connection between the violence against women
and the violence against our earth is very real.
When the oil industry came, we saw the rape of the earth
by the digging, and taking out those things
that flow through the earth.
But what that also did was
it brought thousands and thousands of men.
All these man camps sprang up all over the place.
And unfortunately, when you have thousands of men in a camp
with not a lot to do, we saw the violence
against our women and children on Fort Berthel
increase by 168%, as far as rapes.
We had a four-year-old girl...
a four-year-old girl that was seen running away
from a man camp that had been... sexually assaulted.
And you know, that stuff is real, that stuff happens.
That violence comes with the raping of the earth.
And I think it's so important for people to understand that
those two things are connected,
and we allow it when we allow the fossil fuel industry.
We allow that thing to happen.

For AIM, it wasn't just a domestic organization
or a national organization.
They were sending people to Cuba.
They were sending people to occupied North Ireland.
They were sending people to the Middle East.
They believed if we are truly sovereign nations,
then we have to act like sovereign nations.
And what do sovereign nations do?
They make relationships with other nations.
It was then the American Indian Movement
came to the realization...
that there was only one colour of mankind
that is not allowed to participate
in the international community.
Only one colour!
And that's the red people of the western hemisphere.
The black man, the yellow man, the white man, the brown man
are all represented in the family of nations.
But one entire race of people, half the world,
the red people of the western hemisphere are not allowed
to participate in the international community,
in the family of nations.
Every decent thinking human being in the world
should be indignant and incensed!
Well, we hope to have the United Nations intervene
on behalf of the Native American people
so that the United States federal government will declare
a moratorium on all gun fighting at Wounded Knee,
and that they withdrew-- withdraw the federal troops
and give the people there some breathing room.
There were two objectives, very simple.
One was to create awareness for the atrocities that were
occurring in Indian country, and what resulted in Wounded Knee.
The second objective was to petition
the Congress of the United States.
So from 1977 onward, America and the entire international
community has to acknowledge that we are indeed a race of
people, a race of human beings, that we are the red race,
and that needs to be a recognized
international principle.
And so I think it's important to remember that,
because today we just kind of like assume that Native people,
Indigenous peoples just kind of showed up at the United Nations,
put some feathers in their hair and they were like,
"Yay," you know, "culture, come in, we love you."
And then that was the end of the story.
No, they, like-- Wounded Knee was part of a larger movement.
It was part of a larger struggle,
and it was the foundations for what we have today.

This is something that has existed since the founding,
the bloody violent founding of both of these countries.
These are acts of suppression, suppression against
perceived threat of a destabilization of state power.

The point at which they're gonna be able-- they're gonna lose
control of the state's ability to be able to carry out
the project that they want to be able to carry out.

Historically, the police have been
one of the primary vehicles that the state has used
to ensure Indigenous dispossession of land.
And so you think about the creation of
the Northwest Mounted Police in Canada,
their premise was to ensure that western expansion was happening
without the interference of Indigenous peoples
that were living on those lands.
And so they were given authority by Ottawa to be able to...
to use whatever kind of violence they needed to use
in order to be able to suppress political resistance.
So what you see happening at Standing Rock,
it is actually the heart of the invention of this institution
and relationship to Indigenous peoples.
And it's up to us as Indigenous people
to expose how the US government continues to
commit genocide on Indigenous peoples, and this is very real.

In opposition of the Dakota Access Pipeline,
a group of Indigenous youth organized a 500 mile relay run
from the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation to the office of
the United States Army Corps in Omaha, Nebraska.
They delivered a petition asking them not to grant the final
federal permits needed to complete the pipeline.
One of the main organizers of the youth run
was 24-year-old Bobbi Jean Three Legs.
It doesn't take extraordinary people
to do extraordinary things.
It takes a good mind and a good heart.
We started out with four runners,
just two girls and two older guys from the camp.
It took us eight days to do the whole run to get down to Omaha.
It was to bring awareness to the people about
the Dakota Access Pipeline being built here.
Not a lot of people knew about it.
Like when we were coming through the towns, that was
some of the people's very first time hearing about it.
I wanted to bring awareness to the youth,
'cause this is gonna affect them the most.
All the runners were really random.
We didn't even plan anything.
Kinda just sorta happened, and it felt really good.
And you could see it in the people's faces,
especially in the elders.
What do you think that they're seeing when they see
young people running, and when they see you running,
and when they hear about the camp?
That we wanna learn, that we care,
and we care about Mother Earth,
that we care about our traditions, our culture.
Pretty much just not letting it die out.
And that's our responsibility,
to keep it alive so that my grandchildren
from 100 years from now will know all these things.
Bobbi, do you want kids?
- I have a baby! - You have a baby?
She's the reason why I kinda started with my efforts
against all this, 'cause every morning she wakes up
and she asks me or her dad for a drink of water.
It's just that simple, you know?
And what am I gonna do if I can't give her water,
or give her a bath, or feed her?
It's pretty scary to think about when you're a mom.
Originally the Dakota Access Pipeline was supposed to be
built by Bismarck-Mandan, but they said that the people of
Bismarck-Mandan were concerned that, you know,
it would affect their water source and stuff.
So they decided to put it not even a half a mile away
from our reservation.
It pretty much just makes us feel like oh,
it's just Indians, you know?
We're humans too.
We're human beings.

Something new is down there?
- Yeah, see, check this out. - Okay.
You see those-- see that...
that field where they grated the ground there?
You see those big white things?
Yeah.
And plus that... a little to the right,
you can see that they got equipment over there,
so they're working over there.
Across the river from the Sacred Stone Camp,
the Dakota Access Pipeline construction has begun.
But they cannot complete it without a final permit
from the Army Corps of Engineers,
a decision that could happen any day.
If approved, the pipeline could be fully operational
by the end of 2016.
Maybe the greatest insult of all is that the tribe has repeatedly
objected to the construction of a pipeline in the first place.
Its intended path crosses under the Missouri River,
just a half mile from the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation,
cutting through ancestral lands,
threatening to destroy hundreds of sacred sites.
We're waiting for 'em to come down that last hill
towards the river, and once we see them do that,
then we're moving over, setting camp right up in the pathway
of the pipeline to the river, and that's when we're gonna
start letting ourselves be noticed.
And when do you think you're gonna make that move?
I don't know, that's why we're gonna have to have a group
discussion, because this is new info here right this minute.
You know, it goes by their move.
You know, it's gonna be like a chess game here.
Is it dangerous to be over there?
Well you know, they got them man camps over there,
and I'm sure they all would like to pop an Indian or two, so...
They start construction and say,
"Look, we put this much money into it already.
You need to give us the permit,
otherwise we're gonna lose all these millions of dollars."
That's their strategy.
And their environmental assessment has 380 sites -
our sites - that are up for total destruction.
That's burials, rock cairns, sacred sites...
Traditional cultural properties and village sites are up for
destruction by Dakota Access.
A lot of non-Native people, when you-- when they see the fights,
they'll just say, "Well, there's an easy solution.
Why don't you just move somewhere else,
or leave, or go to the city to get income?"
Why do you stay?
Why do Indigenous people stay here?
Because the roots go right out of my feet down to the ground.
I can tell you where my grandfather's grandfather's
grandfather's grandfathers live.
I can give you the history of this whole river
and this whole land, and everybody I see is my relative.
Why would I want to be any place else?
Why would the whole concept of money
be more important than my relatives?
We always take care of our dead.
They're never away from us.
We remember our dead every day.
You look around at this land.
It's because of their sacrifice that we actually have this.

This ridge we're coming up to,
my siblings and my dad would all ride out on bikes.

How many siblings?
Six of us.
You have six siblings?
Yeah, one-- I have one brother and five sisters.
We all kinda had to grow up really early,
from like everything that we went through.
Can you tell me more about that?
It had a lot to do with alcohol.
Just... I don't know, all of us kinda just
went our separate ways for a little bit.
I had actually got the opportunity to go to college.
What did you take?
Criminal justice.
Why did you wanna take criminal justice?
Because of everything I've been through when I was younger,
and all the stories that are here about, like,
sexual assaults and the crime made me wanna do that
for my people, because we need a lot more support that way.
What is the struggle?
Uh, alcohol and drugs,
domestic violence, sexual assault.
You know, like molestation, rape.
That I believe comes from the boarding schools,
'cause that's what they learned.
And like it happened to me whenever I was a little girl.
I was about five or six years old.
I had already been molested.
It went on until I was about nine years old.
As a kid, I was really lost.
I didn't know who to trust.
But you see that in like every generation.

I watched the stories with the people
that had went to boarding school.
Like I would get on the internet and just look up stories,
and it kinda gave me a lot of answers to why everything was
the way it was growing up.
SARAIN: In the 1870s, the American government separated
thousands of Indigenous children from their families
and forced them into boarding schools.
We bring them in, clean them up,
and start them on their way to civilization.
Through the agencies of the government,
they are being rapidly brought from their state of comparative
savagery and barbarism to one of civilization.
The schools banned all forms of Indigenous culture and
spiritual beliefs, and many children suffered physical,
sexual and emotional abuse from the people who were supposed to
be caring for them.
(School bell ringing)
Many survivors turned to drugs and alcohol
to deal with their pain.
The intergenerational effects of this trauma
are still felt today.
By the time I was like 10 or 11,
I had already tried to commit suicide.
I did pills a lot, and I drank a lot too.
It was just kinda getting out of control.
It took me a long time to realize that I love myself,
and that I'm not gonna let that define me.
(Sighing)
I finally found it in myself to quit.
We need to just forgive that part of us and just grow
from it, and try to prevent it as much as we can.
And if that means just talking out loud about it,
you know, that's what we need to do.
And you know, I see it, and I grew up with it,
I've been through it, and I wanna fix it.
I would go crazy if someone ever hurt my baby.

Never... Never thought that I would ever be
working with the youth till they asked me to coach them.
So we started doing that and started having practices,
and we went to a couple tournaments together,

being able to do that.

REPORTER: Workers are digging trenches in Emmons County
for the Dakota Access Pipeline, even though a federal permit
for the project has yet to be approved.
The North Dakota section would cross under several rivers,
which prompted protest on the Standing Rock and Fort Berthold
Reservations about the threat to drinking water supplies.
The Army Corps of Engineers still hasn't given approval
to cross those waterways.
Right now, Army Corps is holding our whole lives in their hands
with this permit.
So they must issue the permit to allow that pipeline
to go across the Missouri River.
With Standing Rock, we're 2.3 million acres.
We're the 5th largest land-based tribe in the United States.
Across the river, that's our homelands.
We call that Docket 74A, unresolved land claims
of my people, because in 1873 they rounded us up
and brought us over to this side of the river.
But our homes, our ceremonial sites, our sacred sites
are all across there, where they're digging right now.
And I went over there and I watched them,
and I was thinking what are you gonna do
when you find my family's remains?
Are you just gonna throw them aside?
So you can see probably the tip.
There's a little island that's out there in the river.
That little island is a burial ground.
It's all burials out there.
So what they're gonna do is they're gonna go down underneath
the river and come up underneath that burial ground.
And we're saying, "You can't do that."
One of the things that no human being should have to do
is pick up human remains from the river.
What do these flags here mean?
What do they represent?
When we first asked for help, people sent their flags
as their support, and what they represent is
all of these nations, that we stand with you.
So we have the Yankton Sioux Tribe,
the Oglala Lakota, the Cheyenne River, and then Standing Rock.
So Oceti Sakowin is our Seven Council Fires,
which is how we establish our nation.
And today, we are separated into 14 reservations
and nine Canadian reserves, and that is one nation.
And so we are trying to bring that all back together again
so we can work as a nation again.
SARAIN: The Oceti Sakowin, or Great Sioux Nation,
is home to some of the poorest people in America,
organizing to oppose a fossil fuel industry supported by
some of the richest and most powerful people on the planet.
Ladonna's camp has brought people together in prayer,
a courageous act of non-violent and defensive resistance
to say, "Enough is enough.
We will not let our water be spoiled for profit."
But this is a war not easily won in a country solidified
in its strong allegiances to the fossil fuel industry.
The Standing Rock Occupation,
coupled with the recent presidential race,
is widening an already existing divide in the community.
While Donald Trump speaks at an oil and gas conference
in the state capital of Bismarck, North Dakota,
outside, racial tensions run high.
America first, America first, America first!
(Yelling)
Trump will make America great again!
Get a job, you bums!
You're fucking racist!
I'm tired of the government
taking $300 from my cheque a week to give it to you bums!
I pay for my own shit!
Shame on you!
I pay for my shit!
- Get outta here! - There, not here!
Step back up on the curb!
The line's right here, not there!
You know, if they come in and they break ground
and they complete the Dakota Access Pipeline,
they are potentially going to be contaminating all of our water
systems in South Dakota, which extends from the reservation
here in Standing Rock all the way down to Yankton,
to the other corner, and goes all the way back up to Minnesota
and back down through Lake Traverse into
our reservation and system.
So to say that it's not gonna affect everything,
then the entire Dakota territory is just plain naive.
We are fighting for a future of America
that's better for all of us!
(Cheering)
At an hour's drive away,
Bismarck is the closest major city to the camp.
Every day, Ladonna and her husband, Miles,
make the drive to town to get the much needed supplies
to keep the camp functioning.
So this isn't-- it's out of your pocket right now,
but there'll be a... like a camp fund, or how does it work?
Like are you footing the bill?
Right now, about a third of my income goes to the camp,
and then the rest are all donations,
and we wrote three grants.
And so the grant money should be in the account soon,
which will be able to buy ply board and stuff.
How much money do you spend a day on the camp?
Oh, can't complain.
Hundred, 150, about a day.
Wow.
That's to make sure everybody's got food and meat,
and their biggest thing right now is get real coffee.
(Laughing)
Yeah, real coffee!
REPORTER: The Dakota Access Pipeline is
getting closer to approval.
Last week, both South Dakota and Illinois approved the project,
although it hasn't yet been approved here in North Dakota.
Since the camp, I've been taking--
I have lots and lots of sick leave.
So I've been taking four hours...
at least once or twice a week
just to take care of what the camp needs.
It's like people understand what we're doing,
so community members come down and bring any extra food,
any extra supplies.
I'm trying to make all the records accountable.
I opened a bank account just for the camp,
so then we have bank statements saying this is how much money's
a year and stuff, so accountability.
So how long do you think you can run it like this?
It's gonna need to run like this?

There's three.

SARAIN: In the 19th century, after hundreds of years
of defensive battle with settlers, Indigenous tribes
signed treaties with the United States government
agreeing to live on designated land in exchange for peace.
Over the years, the United States has repeatedly

To date, every one of the treaties signed
with Native peoples has been violated.
Lands were forcibly claimed through violence and genocide,

can rule against our treaty right.
And if they do get the permit,
what type of legal action can the tribe take?
We're gonna file an injunction, and then we're gonna...
we'll have to go with the Supreme Court,

We never had any say or any input on the pipeline
from the beginning, even though it threatens our future.
What is the best-case scenario for you and your people?
Well, the best one is for them to reroute the pipeline.

there's minimal impact on water

President Trump To Address Congressional Republicans Here's What To Watch For Live Feed - Duration: 5:03.
President Trump To Address Congressional Republicans (Here's What To Watch For) - Live Feed.
by Tyler Durden.
In the days since taking office, President Trump has followed through on some campaign
promises by signing a series of executive actions, but as he takes the stage before
congressional Republicans at their group retreat in Philadelphia today, he'll be asking his
fellow GOP politicians for help making his agenda (specifically taxes, immigration, and
Obamacare repeal) a reality.
As Politico reports, the retreat represents an opportunity for Trump to tap into the enthusiasm
of lawmakers whose party just regained control over Congress and the White House for the
first time in a decade.
�They�re excited about the proposition of landmark legislation,� the official said
of congressional Republicans.
Protesters are active in Philly...
Here is Politico's list of things Republicans want to know from their president (based on
conversations with more than a dozen lawmakers and aides):
DO YOU HAVE OUR BACK?
Congressional Republicans -- who have struggled in past years to keep the government open
and avoid defaulting on the nation�s debt -- are about to embark on what can only be
described as one of the most ambitious years of legislating in the last decade.
They plan to rewrite the nation�s health care law, tax code and spend hundreds of billions
of dollars rebuilding the nation�s infrastructure.
The Hill has the expertise on policy -- will Trump defer to them?
But more importantly, when they start the messy work of legislating, is Trump going
to stick with them, or undermine them and question their positions publicly?
Will he use his perch to fervently defend them -- members of Congress actually love
when he tweets -- or will he stand aside while they squirm?
ARE YOU WITH US ON ENTITLEMENTS AND DEBT?
OR NOT?
Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) and the rest of the Hill GOP have spent the last few years
screaming that structural problems in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security are driving the
country into crippling debt.
Trump says he�ll balance the budget, but won�t touch entitlements.
Impossible, say Republicans.
Put on truth serum -- or, simply talk to most any Republican privately -- and they will
tell you that Trump is a phony when he preaches fiscal discipline, but in the same breath
says he won�t touch these social programs.
Not to mention, Trump is going to spend piles of money on infrastructure, his border wall
-- not to mention the tax cuts he�s planning.
So, President Trump, how are you going to balance the budget while spending huge amounts
of money, and refusing to touch entitlements?
WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE ON TAXES?
Yes, Republicans know Trump can slap tariffs on companies that do business overseas without
any congressional approval.
But when it comes to tax reform -- the decades-long dream of many a legislator -- where does Trump
stand?
Capitol Hill tax writers have well-laid plans, but Trump has frequently criticized the scheme�s
cornerstone: taxing imports instead of exports.
Will he let that blow up tax reform?
Or will he acquiesce?
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR IN A SUPREME COURT JUSTICE?
During a closed session Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) smiled
when he said lawmakers will be pleased to know who Trump plans to nominate to the Supreme
Court.
But Trump could face as many as three openings on the court, and Republicans want to know
what exactly he�s looking for in a justice.
Everyone has seen the list of Trump�s potential nominees to the bench.
But those were crafted when he was a presidential candidate trying to make a point.
Now, many Republicans are privately hoping that Trump looks beyond his list at some other
conservative judicial minds around the country.
Does Trump have a litmus test when it comes to justices?
And the most crucial thing to look out for...
Most every member of Congress wants to know how the president will help them personally.
Ryan told Republicans yesterday that Trump has vowed to go to bat to boost his agenda.
But will Trump hit the stump when it counts?
Will he activate his base to back embattled members of Congress?
He seems to get the point: There have already been quiet murmurs that Trump will hit the
road to push his agenda, while simultaneously fundraising for House and Senate Republicans.

Trump Cabinet's First World problem omitting a few million here and there January 27, 2017 - Duration: 8:17.
Trump Cabinet's First World problem omitting a few million here and there
U.S. President Donald Trump's Cabinet is worth a combined $14 billion, and they are catching
flak in recent weeks for confessing an inability to keep track of their vast sums of wealth.
But private bankers who work with the ultra rich say that if they had a dollar for every
time a client forgot about a million, they would be, well, almost as rich as their clients.
"We see it all the time," with new clients, said Chris Walters of GenSpring Family Offices,
SunTrust Bank Inc's (STI.N) branch for clients with more than $50 million in assets.
"It's not that they are surprised they own the asset.
They just omitted it in the inventory."
Steven Mnuchin, a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc (GS.N) partner who is Trump's pick to
lead the U.S. Treasury Department, was grilled by members of the Senate last week for inadvertently
failing to disclose more than $100 million in real estate.
On Tuesday, the nominee for head of the budget office, Mick Mulvaney, said he did not realize
he needed to pay $15,000 in federal taxes for a nanny until scrutinizing his finances
more closely for confirmation proceedings.
Trump himself said in an interview with Reuters last March that he does not pay much attention
to his own investments in hedge funds and mutual funds.
"I have no idea how they are doing.
I don't really care," Trump said.
"I'm in a lot of things.
I may be in a few funds.
I have no idea if they are up or down.
I just know that they have been very good over a period of time."
Trump's lawyer Sheri Dillon has since said that he has liquidated all of his investments.
Senate leadership has delayed confirmation hearings for three other wealthy Trump nominees
to allow more time for nominees to file disclosures and to accommodate schedules.
In response to questions about how people with millions or billions of dollars who hire
experts to carefully tally their vast wealth could lose track of such big chunks of money,
private bankers and family office managers said their clients simply live much more complicated
financial lives than ordinary people.
About one-in-five people with more than $25 million in assets hire advisers to take care
of tasks like paying daily bills, managing staff at multiple homes and keeping track
of assets around the globe, according to a report by research firm Spectrem.
Advisers say their clients need this type of assistance because they work, socialize
and travel too frequently to take care of mundane tasks themselves.
Eileen Foley, head of Bank of New York Mellon Corp's (BK.N) family office business, said
that some clients want daily reports detailing every dollar that goes in and out of each
account.
They also ask for daily reports on investments, tangible assets, properties and liabilities.
When a client is nominated for a position on the board of a public company or in government,
this type of daily monitoring can help she said: "It's not a fire drill."
But even with that type of due diligence, clients often forget to mention assets held
by multiple people, like limited partnerships.
Those structures are harder for advisers to discover in financial statements, because
they are often structured to keep ownership opaque.
Mnuchin, for instance, failed to disclose around $900,000 worth of artwork held by his
children, according to media reports.
Mnuchin did not respond to requests for comment.
He also did not initially disclose homes in New York, Los Angeles and Mexico.

Toxic Hearts - Piece Of Me (Vexento Remix) - Duration: 3:47.
I felt the world crash down on me
I've lost my pulse and humanity
Like a tin man, I have no heart
Try to get it back don't know where to start
Oh I gave my all and supported you through
Was loyal but can't take this abuse
Not caring is the best change I have made
I'll be stronger than yesterday
"Piece Of Me"
"Piece Of Me"
You don't deserve this piece of me
You don't deserve this piece of me
The part where you took advantage of me
Not caring is the best change I have made
I'll be stronger then yesterday
Oh I gave my all and supported you through
Was loyal but can't take this abuse
How could I be so blind to see
And you don't deserve this piece of me
"Piece Of Me"

Top 8 Most Important Benefits of Green Tea | Find the Best Benefits of Green Tea Here - Duration: 4:58.
Before you ask yourself what are the most common green tea benefits are, consider the
fact that a much better question would be, "What health benefits does green tea does
not have?"
Think about it – can you name any other food or drink that has been said to be as
healthy and beneficial as green tea?
Green tea has been used for both medicinal and nutritional purposes in Asia for more
than 4,000 years, and that has to say something about the many possible benefits of drinking
green tea.
Now, without anymore waiting let's get to the main thing which is.
The Benefits of green tea.
Number 1: The Stimulating Effect.
The stimulating effect is very popular these days since it means so many things to everyone.
Green tea helps folks feel dully awake whenever they needed it most during their jobs or other
boring tasks.
The caffeine and Tannins in green tea is what stimulates individuals, giving them that fresh
and energized feeling.
Green tea is also ideal in countering your lack of energy, fatigue and the lazy feeling
that makes you unproductive in your day.
It also helps to improve blood circulation.
Number 2: Boosts Immunity.
Research showed that regular green tea drinkers do not usually fall easy prey to today's
common viral and bacterial infections.
It does not guarantee full immunity however.
The Catechins present prevents bacteria, and viruses as well from attaching into the cell
walls.
These also counter toxins released by various microbes.
Such anti microbial properties also protect you from having bad breath and suffer from
diarrhea, dysentery, tooth decay, flu, colds, indigestion, colitis and many more.
The message is as clear as ever; green tea is one of your best bets to boost your immunity
capabilities.
Number 3: Astringency.
This triggers muscle contractions, including tissues and the skin.
Even mere mouthwash using green tea on a daily basis will also tighten and firm up your teeth.
Number 4: Anti Carcinogenic.
Aside from the ageing phenomenon, free radicals also help initiate certain cancer types.
The catechins that neutralize these free radicals also prevent the formation of carcinogens
to help reduce the cancer risks.
Number 5: Reduces Cholesterol Levels.
Green tea is also known to be effective in this area primarily due to the alkaline component.
It also helps in preventing the thickening of the blood that should significantly reduce
your chances of suffering from thrombosis, arterial sclerosis, cerebral and cardiac strokes.
There are more health benefits of green teato help you live a healthy life,
however, these are found on a regular basis and brought up in the news fairly often, so
you may find new benefits that are not listed here..
Number 6: Lowers the Blood Sugar Level.
Studies show that the extract of Green Tea has the ability to actually lower blood sugar.
It is believed that both the EGCG and polysaccharides in Green Tea are factors in lowering blood
sugar.
Number 7:Oral Hygiene and Dental Care.
Fluoride in Green Tea stabilizes tooth enamel and the ECGC reduces the development of bacteria
growing in the plaque.
Green Tea can also kill other oral bacteria which cause bad breath.
Green Tea stimulates the production of saliva and it will reduce the harmful acids formed
in the mouth.
People who drink Green Tea on a daily basis have unusually lower rates of heart disease
and cancer, they also live longer.
Unlike other antioxidants, those found in Green Tea cause no toxic side effects.
Number 8: Relaxation.
It is also said that green tea can relax and calm the nerves.
This may sound a bit absurd, but it really isn't when you look closer.
Green tea contains a compound called 'Theanine'.
Like Alcohol, this compound can cross the blood-brain barrier, but unlike alcohol, it
does not have an adverse affect.
It can relieve both mental and physical stress, and even in repeated extremely high doses
has little or no adverse affects–physical or psychological.

Here's what gas pump ATM skimming devices look like - Duration: 1:20.
FRED'S, THOUGH
THAT PROPOSAL
IS STILL BEING EVALUATED BY
THE GOVERNMENT.
WE HAVE
NEW INFORMATION
TONIGHT ON OUR CONTINUING
INVESTIGATION INTO BANK CARD
SKIMMERS.
AS WE FIRST TOLD YOU
YESTERDAY,
TWO CREDIT CARD
SKIMMERS WERE FOUND RECENTLY
ON THE GAS PUMPS AT THIS TOP
STAR EXXON STATION IN
MYERSTOWN.
AT LEAST 21 VICTIMS HAVE TOLD
STATE POLICE THAT THEIR BANK
CARDS
HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED
HERE.
SPOTTING SKIMMERS ON GAS PUMPS
CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT.
THEY'RE OFTEN
INVERTED --
INSERTED INSIDE THE GAS PUMP
AND CAN'T BE SEEN WITH THE
NAKED EYE.
RIGHT NOW
HERE'S A PICTURE OF
A SKIMMER ON THE OUTSIDE OF
THE PUMP.
THE NORMAL CARD READER
IS ON
THE LEFT.
ON THE RIGHT SIDE, YOU CAN SEE
THE SKIMMER HAS BEEN PLACED ON
TOP OF THE CARD READER.
BUT
MOST, IN FACT ALMOST ALL
GOT PUMP SKIMMERS THESE DAYS
IT LOOK LIKE THIS ONE.
THIS WAS ONE FOUND
INSIDE THE
GAS PUMPS IN LEBANON COUNTY.
IT'S JUST SOME WIRES AND
CONNECTIONS THAT SIMPLY
INTERCEPT THE
CARD TRANSACTION
WITHIN THE MACHINE.
SKIMMERS FOUND INSIDE OTHER
GAS PUMPS AROUND THE COUNTRY
LOOK VERY SIMILAR,
AND THEY,
TOO, ARE INSTALLED INTERNALLY.
IF THE BAD GUYS GET THEIR
HANDS ON MASTER
KEYS THAT CAN
OPEN UP THE PUMPS, THEY JUST
CONNECT THE WIRES AND INSTALL
THESE DEVICES IN JUST A
MATTER
OF SECONDS.
SO WHILE IT'S NEARLY
IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE SKIMMERS
INSIDE THE GAS PUMP, YOU CAN
STILL
LOOK AT YOUR BANK CARD
STATEMENTS EVERY SINGLE DAY.
