Description

Ekberzade recounts the tale--through conversations with the key players--of the protest movement within the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation against the re-routing of the Dakota Access Pipeline through reservation lands. She also explores how the movement fits into an epic, centuries-old story of struggle, dispossession and the persecution of America's indigenous peoples, as told to her directly by the guardians of the oral history of the Great Plains. --Adapted from publisher description.;Before we begin -- The resistance -- Seventh generation -- The black snake -- Showdown at Standing Rock.
