WATER IS LIFE
We ARE the water.
Each of us a droplet, each drop is a Universe within itself.
When we come together, we are the most powerful, life-giving force on the planet.

To save the planet, in solidarity with family farmers and indigenous people
Energy Transfer Partners is drilling underneath the Mississippi River to build the Dakota Access Bakken oil pipeline.
Last week, more than 150 water guardians marched to the front gates of this Black Snake operation, between Sandusky and Montrose, IA and demanded the big oil corporation turn off its machines and leave the state.
We put Big Oil on notice, and we delivered a promise. If ETP and Dakota Access won’t voluntarily turn off their augers and powerdown their bulldozers and back hoe’s, we will return and risk arrest to shut them down ourselves.
Now, we prepare ourselves mentally, physically, and spiritually to fullfill that promise. All who join us are asked to come in the spirit of nonviolence and love, with no weapons, drugs, or alcohol. We have roles for every level of participation.
Direct action training by Frank Cordaro and Jess Reznicek. Legal support by National Lawyers Guild attorney Sally Frank.
