  "It's not a comfortable feeling to know that you are actually afraid for your life from the police because they're protecting a pipeline and they're protecting the interests of Dakota Access. That's a very scary feeling, and it's one that I think more people need to be aware of." - Tara Houska, Honor the Earth

  
  

  

  Phyllis Carter THIS IS OBAMA'S SHAME. HIS ABSENCE FROM THE SCENE, HIS SILENCE ABOUT THE ABUSES. SHAME ! WOMEN STRIP SEARCHED. DO THE OIL POLICE THINK A WOMAN CAN HIDE A RIFLE IN HER VAGINA? NO. IT IS BEING DONE TO HUMILIATE. TO INTIMIDATE. TO LORD IT OVER THE NATIVE PEOPLES AND TRY TO TERRORIZE THEM. THIS SHAME WILL SCAR AMERICA'S IMAGE THROUGH HISTORY. THE OIL BARONS AND SHEIKS AND THEIR FRIENDS WILL LOSE. THE NATIVE PEOPLES WILL NOT BE CRUSHED. THEY HAVE SURVIVED ABUSE AT THE HANDS OF WHITE MEN FOR CENTURIES.
