Join AIM-WEST and others in an urgent call for a NOON RALLY IN SAN FRANCISCO
When rubber bullets, tasers, bean bags and pepper spray fired, (dogs unleashed in the recent past), continued violation of treaties and human rights, protectors being jailed, media communications being jammed, it is time we stand together in the BAY AREA in solidarity with the Peoples of Standing Rock Reservation
in North Dakota, and against the Dakota Access Pipeline project.
Today, a large militarized police force raided the Treaty Camp on the banks of the Missouri River in North Dakota which has held a strong line against the Dakota Access Pipeline threatening the water of the Standing Rock Sioux and millions of other people downstream. Hundreds of police using armored personnel carriers, LRAD sound weapons, automatic weapons have begun to break up the camp that lay directly in the route of construction.
The message is clear and urgent. Oil companies, politicians and the police state have no regard for the health and safety of peaceful people standing in the route of power and profit. We urgently need you to join this struggle and organize bold and effective actions in solidarity with Indigenous people and allies on the ground in North Dakota.
We must continue to support those at Standing Rock who fight back every day. Thank you to those that have already hosted rallies, vigils and protests. We have raised the profile of the fight on Standing Rock across the world. But now we need friends and allies across the world to step up and continue to fight with Standing Rock.
The Red Warrior Camp has called for more action in solidarity with water protectors in North Dakota.
The asks are simple:
1. Go to North Dakota as resistance will continue through the winter. Email Organizer@nodaplsolidarity.org for more information.
2. Organize a solidarity action against a bank, oil company or politician profiting from this horrid pipeline. Sign up here.
3. Donate to the legal fund. Details here.
Please join the fight to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Thanks for all you do.
In solidarity, Rising Tide North America
. On Sunday, October 30th at 8pm EST/7pm CST/6pm MST/5pm PST, we’ll have a briefing and coordinating conference call to discuss our response to the police raids in North Dakota. Click here to register
