Standing Rock Diary is a memory of a week living with the Indians at the Oceti Sakowin encampment near the Standing Rock Sioux Indian Reservation in November of 2016. The Camp, located at the junction of the Cannonball and Missouri Rivers, was an historic gathering of Tribes from Indigenous Nations and allies from all over the world joining in solidarity to halt the Dakota Access Pipeline. According to ancient Lakota prophecy, a Black Snake would slither across the land, desecrate sacred sites, and poison the water before destroying the Earth. To the Native Americans, that Black Snake is the Dakota Access Pipeline.
