GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:
gma.yahoo.com/
I have tears streaming down my face after watching this. I just don't even know how to begin to describe the level of respect I have for the beautiful, young indigenous people who speak in this doco. It might sound strange to say this about people I don't know, but watching this I felt so proud of them as young people, so true, so graceful, so tenacious, so rooted in their spirituality; over and over, in the face of such struggle. Theirs is no small achievement. The commitment to non-violence that this whole movement has shown, and more than this , the spiritual honesty of the humility and persistent commitment to empathy and utter refusal of hatred that they show in their interactions with the police had me in tears, this a much needed balm to the heart. Whose heart could continue to be hardened in the face of such grace, such humility, such true hearts? From across the ocean my heart flows out to all the people who stand with standing rock, and to standing rock itself, the land, the water, the animals, those wide grassy plains.
This is where the police ate Thanksgiving dinner. On top of the graves and on sacred land. This was not just old graves there were new graves. This is so sad and disrespectful.
Susan Smelden it is but not as sad as the fact that the last twenty years have seen a massive surge of Native Americans joining big cities yet the funding for urban Native Americans hasn't increased at all. Plus, we could have it built to curve around it
I bet the natives of North America really and truly regret not letting those idiots just starve that winter!
Yes, it was so sad that they dug up the Graves of My Deceased Family! They NoDAPL Oil Police will forever have nightmares of what they did to them! Aho! /Amen! All My Relatives!! Mni Wiconi!!
Cops ate criminals
the only reason you have all these things and have a great country is because of white people. maybe you should go back to living in huts
26:02 She's so inspirational. I wish everyone had that much love and heart to stand up for what they believe in...
I stand by you Indigenous people from Canada.
not one word about the thousands of vets that showed up???!!! nothing about sioux z being targeted and shot in the eye almost losing it??!! nothing about the water protector girl who got her arm blown off by morton county?!?!
Johnny Santi nothing about that said she blew her arm off
We know, we saw, we are witness. We are Standing up in power still!
That guy trying to keep everyone in line and in prayer is the smartest guy out there big props to him!
I'm Brazilian and I think that natives all over the world have very similar problems, I respect their rights, natives are the first and legitimate Americans, I'm South Americans, and I'm very proud of my indigenous ancestors.
Such strength, power and beauty. I am honored that I got to share in this testament to empowerment and healing. The power of forgiveness...
Stand up in your power people, for all the sentient beings of our mother Earth. We are all still here. Love, Unity, Respect.
Ignorance in the comments is unreal. Everyone wants “respect,” but can not give it. Do research.
Standing rock are eyes wide open! Incredibly smart men and women who are thinking not only of themselves but their future generations.
It's encouraging to see good people standing up n confront the evil when evil uses all means at their disposal to intimidate the protesters. Stay strong n true. Bless
I am a Water Protector. I wish all of the Water Protectors would meet once a year during anniversary times for us. We are all relatives. We were prayerful and peaceful and we were utterly brutalized by private missionary's, cops and our own military. I almost died there too. I would return without a second thought. MNI WICONI is real. I stand with my relatives at Standing Rock for all time.
I stand with you and Standing Rock for all time. I will never forget or forsake your bravery!
peace and love to you all
Very true it is so much more than this video portrays. I am not native but the mother of native son and grandsons. This is for all people. I am a registered nurse, water is life. Oil companies come in pushing oil, all pipes eventually leak. This pipeline is going straight down the middle of Iowa. Where most of the food is grown by the farmers. When earth has no more water and no more food, what happens to human life. Water is life, prayers for all that the government comes to its senses and realizes we are a smart people with better ways to power our country. The first Ford car ran off of hemp fuel. How many people realized this. There are alternatives for us before we destroy earth.
Now we know...we are STRONGER for it..we always were...
Whew reliving these events. Haven’t touched these painful memories for some time. Haven’t wanted to. I needed to though. I am now reminded and inspired and motivated to action taking care of my responsibility and
duty to be a helper to the youth and live my name.Akawe Osa Animikii. First Yellow/Spring Thunder.
Feeling the feels. Mni wiconi.
@@theroo3625 Niibii Waboo un da ya. Aki miskwe Niibii Waboo. Very morning water prayer.
@@Firstthunder ❤
@@Firstthunder makes me think of the guy who greeted us every morning: "Good morning relatives! ..."
@@theroo3625 get out your chanupas, polish off your crosses, wake up and meet the grandfather! Time for warriors to be outta bed!
IIYC, I wish my children were old enough to stand with you. I will teach them the truth.
don't give up. there are a lot of americans with you. free Palestine!
God bless them. Mni wiconi!
I want everyone who harmed all Water Protectors to face assault charges and violation of the Constitution.
thanks a lot for this contribution with all these wonderful human beings. it makes so sad that all these protectors are treated with goverment and corporation violence and lying, not only today but since 7generation. I will always stand with you.
I hold all of you in high regard. thanks , love and compassion.
I pray that the profit-sharks will be brought to justice and that there will never be
frecking oil and this pipeline, no DAPL, no pipeline nowhere.
These graves are equally sacred as the Jewish graves. Why is this abomination being allowed to happen?
Kwin it's all because of trump. All of this is happening because of trump.
Try not to senk to there level
God dose not wont this
Digging up Burrell sits is not a good thing he dose not except that at all the spirt will hunt them for doing so pray for the buffalo and the Eagles agen but don't senk to there level they won't to to get hurt they won't to to go to jail be better then that say fine build it and if it brakes soue them u do have that right take it to them and say we told u this would happen and make them fell dum and not u please don't make this wors speed the word of God he told me to tell u stand down and take to him he will listen. He said he loves u all
I'm from standing rock #NoDAPL #MniWiconi #WaterIsLife
✌💙
Is it still going?
Thank you
The people need to rise up! Our government has become inadequate, it's time for them to face OUR wrath! Do your part, protest, exercise free speech, UNIFY!
NOT "our wrath". Our prayers and peaceful ways. Unify, but in prayer and peacefulness. Take a lesson from the IIYC on how to appeal to their hearts. They, too, are human.
Those soldiers should consider themselves lucky the natives are protecting nature and essentially doing our job for us. This country doesn't deserve its best members.
My brothers and sisters I feel your pain
As an IGOROT (ONE OF P.I. INDIGENOUS PEOPLE) I STAND FOR STANDING ROCK! #NODAPL #INDIGENOUSPEOPLEOFTHEWORLDUNITE #NATIVEPRIDEWORLDWIDE
stand up for the rights of your people make them know you know your rights
mark anderson one right is the right to shoot mofos who destroy the environment and jail resisters
You cannot stop tyranny with prayer and peace. The best of humanity would hope that it could be so, however reality has taught us otherwise. Greed is what fuels these soulless colonizers. Greed is where we must fight the battle hard. I never feel that I am doing enough.
I really want to learn and watch this but as a black person I’m getting second hand ptsd watching this. It’s so terrible. Peace unto the Aborigines. Blessings.
Natives will come back, Nature is our Home.We r still here..
Im amazed! Great documentary! Uplifting and inspirational people and movement! Also quite the eyeopener im hoping for some who need to see. Wakan tanka kici un...☀️🦅
I am Maori , native to New Zealand (Aotearoa) my people lost land, and connection in 1840, but over generations our Reo( language) was taken from us! We have slowly but surely rebuilt particularly Reo. You take away a language, you take away EVERYTHING!
Way for them they need their land back❤❤❤
I'm fifth generation Cherokee. I only know this from the stories of my Memaw. The history books don't tell the truth. People are finding out the truth because our Ancestors support us and we are the truth of the past. I love all Tribes. I am bringing my 77 year old Mom to stand up with the Warriors at Standing Rock.
Daaanggg.... heard some of my best, most favorite songs in this video!!!😁✌
Wopila!🙏
Love not hate
Water Is Life
feel sad how the world is sad and suffer 😢 respect native American and life matters.
Thank you Jesus unity against the enemies
There are many of your burial sites in northern Michigan, which have been abandoned for many decades.
But I seen the dog bite that women the police are the aggressor
The North Dakota Department of Emergency Services (DES) said on Tuesday that a Florida-based clean-up company it hired to clear trash, waste, and debris from the Oceti Sakowin camp protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline has already run up a bill of $1 million after hauling away from the site 24,000 tons of trash, garbage, rotting food, tents, teepees, sleeping bags, dozens of empty propane tanks, human excrement, and several automobiles. They also left behind two dogs and six puppies, apparently abandoned.
This is disrespectful to Native Americans
I thought they conducted themselves with an awful lot of respect.
I still can’t believe this happened in the United States! We all need to stand up to this fascist #45
We have been loosing our rights little by little way before #45. This will continue until we have no rights.
Our government makes its’ people look bad when they lie about consulting with the tribe. They’re being paid by an oil company to railroad this pipeline regardless of what these people hold sacred.
Now indigenous need to assist the indigenous in the Amazon
Agree with that statement ✊
Oklahoma indigenous people just won in court.
Standing Rock just won also.
Words are spells. They fade into the distance without touching purpose.
I really cannot understand how these military puppets can target unarmed people even worse, to get away with it. I love that the stance was to stay in prayer and to remain positive and peaceful against this greed. I was glued to the indigenous media recording this movement so got firsthsnd what was going on. It was at this point that I stopped watching mainstream media altogether. This remains the same, still to this day. Thank you for your spirit, bravery and courage. As an indigenous Māori I stand with you all still.
Your grandmothers prayed you here
When u think we are the 7th generation u have a misunderstanding of it
Even though this happened in 2016 this is fucked up this almost happened around where I live because of a company or whatever called Keystone so would of been a standing rock part 2 in the Fort peck reservation.
We're back and we will stay here until we complete our mission.
All you need to know about red horse. It is codes. No one could figure out 7 generation look at u tube it says clearly the youth at STANDING rock
sorry that it got this bad. It is there land. it's gotten out of hand. Men and Women it's YOUR land! spoiled children need to be silent and wait your turn, then see if you still believe or was you used as a tool
These are my people. My ancestors died for their rights to live there. Over 500 treaties were made with American Indian tribes, primarily for land cessations, but 500 treaties were also broken, changed or nullified when it served the government's interests.
😢❤
This is so phucked up. The greed of the Bilagáana .
They should just not do the pipeline cause these people are tough and will stay there until they win.
Southwest Creations no they will build the pipeline in the future its government land
mark anderson -
I think your soul may be empty. Time to go to Qwik Lube and fill it back up with oil.
mark anderson -
sounds like you've got it all figured out. congrats
mark anderson you're dense, this is something far greater than yourself, this country or oil. The small factions of natives that puppet casinos don't represent the mass majority of people. Did you know that our planet is running out of drinkable water? Grow some humanity! Grow a spine!
I am Cherokee and I stand for Standing Rock ! This is just Evilness !
if it's their land then why can these companies just walk all over it?
edit: look how stupid and smug they look. just smiling from the top of their land, waving at the camera.
idk but it felt sickening to watch that bit.
Are you ok Question Mark? I don't think you are really sure what you feel....and what you think...otherwise you would be an exclamation mark or a period at the end of a declarative sentence....from a smug native american
💜🌲🐬.... Water Is Life.... Happy International Women's Day Familia Y Friends. "All Nations Rise" "☝ 🌎" ... 🐺🐢🐍.... Welcome 2021.... Prayers work... Wear a mask... Wash your hands.... Thank You.... Obrigada... Mesi.... Gracias... Philamayaye.... 🌻🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎
There in the process of breach of trust according to the treaty obligation
The largest indigenous protest in United States history.
Yes Mr. sheriff we all know that you are peace bringer and peace makers but why do you shot at unarmed citizens? Didn't see one fist going against you.
Having a pipe line in water you nuts
lord heavenly Father be with them protect them from evil guide each and every one them send your Angels from heaven to be with them.
Same as Afghanistan for 20 years. No leader to negotiate with. Attacking their land. All because of a pipe line.
Lyla June ❤
Please tell me who to get in touch with our people our prayers Lakota adopted out
I guess the seventh generation prophecy is true
It's Nani what does this mean?
While i stand with you im trolled by teens yelling texas at me for what?
As a member of the truth that is Standing ROCK by Enrollment I'm thankful for the consideration of being. Trump signed the abomination.
we need a save water of life
Remember Who Tommy Rexford Is
I see like owning your own house. The government does not have the right or can't run a pipe across your lawn without your permission. The land is the property of the people who own it.
Shame for the west history and the „humanity“ and prays and power goes out to all native people 🙌🏼🔥
give everyone shields and form a shield wall
This is the Native American land!!!
Standing Rock is under state jurisdiction
. did you know that there are currently eight gas pipelines AKA black snake in the Missouri River right now one within a few feet of where the new one will go. Did you know that there's a multi-million-dollar water processing plankton the Standing Roc Nation just opened and they do not get their water from the Missouri River. what makes this black snake any different than the other eight?
Nothing. Except this was just the time that people stood up and said: enough.
I have a brother named Walter that was hit by a car in 1980. After we moved to a neighborhood where street wars started with North and South gangs. The south had been living on a street which was our Grandmothers name and it was St. Francis and she is Frances. The started a gang called siete. which now seems like they took my brother Walter to the South. I wasnt until I moved to the Water lily commons apartments that my phone number had my brothers birthday and the day that he was hit by the car. When my grandson was born he was born on the last four numbers of my phone number which was the same numbers as my brothers birthday 1217 is the last four numbers so a 2 is the number that follows.Even though he was hit on 9/25 /1980 that was 10 days after my birthday. The plug was pulled on my moms birthday of 11/15/1980 In 1986 my grandfather stopped eating and died. My brother was 7 years old. Kristina V. Trujillo
The Lakota counted 100 years as 1 generation. So not sure why this is called 7th generation.
Oh my god are you effing kidding me. This is our land first
Love it the Cops waiving at the camera ! You Bastards !😢
We don't meet with lies
No pipelines!!!
This is not the new America this is the old American coming back
st lawrence river

How do like the pipe line now
They were never going to tell the Natives! That's a lie and they already had plans to build that pipeline!!
Protect the water and nature 🙏 for mother Earth that's why we are here haho
The pipe line can be moved
they put them in dog cages and wrote numbers on their arms to identify them?! how is this even allowed?!
I called that police station i reminded them of Wounded Knee and too never allow such a thing to repeat I myself could see in a couple of the faces of those police that their hearts were not in it.What people cannot understand is we all Left/Right are the pawns in the same game

Peaceful spiritual resistance & prayer. Assigned numbers & dogs attacking sound familiar? I am saddened by AMERICA's response. Thank god for the youth... 1960's ???
