I wanna see something.

I heard about a pipeline protest, what’s going on?

There is a proposed pipeline expansion being currently constructed that will bring nearly 1 million tar sands per day from Alberta, Canada to Superior, Wisconsin.

It’s known as the Line 3 Pipeline. Indigenous ppl have been protesting it with the help of allies. As of recently though the situation has escalated to police brutality and suppression of rights, including treaty rights.

Why is Line3 so bad?

Good question. A brief peek at this map makes it very clear to see why the Ojibwe ppl would be upset.

Pipeline 3 violates several treaties with the Ojibwe people. Treaty rights surpass the authority of even the constitution.

But that hasn’t stopped police from breaking those rights and making over 600 arrests since the protests started.

The placement of it puts at risk the water that 18 million humans and wildlife rely on. That’s 23% of all of public freshwater, nearly ¼ of our entire supply. x

It also will be carrying several kinds of tar sands crude. which is a carbon intensive oil which contains 37% more carbon than conventional oil, meaning worse for our environment than normal oil.

The pipeline would have the climate cost equivalent to 50 coal power plants

The company in charge if it is infamous for it’s spills. They’ve already spilled drilling fluid more than 5x. x

Theyre even abandoning their first attempt at the pipeline once the replacement is constructed because of all the issues it’s had (that’s right, they’ve failed once already) x

As such, Water Protectors have been protesting against it. Going so far as locking themselves to equipment, crawling in pipes, and getting arrested. Anything to stop construction.

Not only that but the pipeline has given cause for concern that there would be an increase in MMIW2SG (Missing and murdered Indigenous Women, 2 Spirit, & girls, a national crisis) The concern is not unfounded.

In March, the anti-violence and anti-human trafficking nonprofit Violence Intervention Project requested reimbursement from Enbridge’s public safety fund for anti-human trafficking efforts associated with the project. x

Recent Timeline of Events & Escalation

July 27th it was found Blue Lives Matter was going to start organizing to “help” the police. x

July 28th the White Earth Nation ordered a 48 hour cease & desist, which Enbridge ignored. x

July 29th HR- 1374, a bill that would allow foreign corporations (like Enbridge) to publically hire state officials to brutalize/kill protesters that disrupt “critical infrastructure” (like pipelines) passes the House and goes on to the Senate. x

July 29th police started using rubber rounds & pepper spray. x

July 30th A vehicle swerved into Water Protectors. x

July 30th Additionally, Enbridge spilled drilling liquid again (called a frac-out) on the same day. x

July 30th 2 Enbridge workers are found in a sex trafficking sting x

August 1st we learn Water Protectors have not been allowed to change out of the clothes covered in the chemicals law enforcement used, their dietary needs have been ignored, and they’ve been treated poorly while in custody. A call to action is posted x

What Can I Do?

Get educated, firstly

Sign this petition to tell Biden to take action

Sign this petition against HR-1374

Follow Indigenous creators/media. A good place to start are the ones I’ve linked through out this post & going through the #StopLine3 tags

We’re having a very hard time trying to spread awareness due to media suppression so please spread this like wildfire

Leave comments under (big) creators that pride themselves on being green or eco-friendly asking them to raise awareness.

Answer the call for action and contact the Pennington County Jail and demand humane treatment of Water Protectors. Read the script too if that’s easier:

I am calling today to demand that water protectors are treated humanely and fairly, that their dietary needs are respected and their medications be given properly.

Tweet their accounts as well. Demand humane treatment

And contact your state representatives & tell them you WILL NOT vote for them again should this HR-1374 pass. That this bill is against your interests as a constituent & NOT a reflection of your states values.
