“We will continue to stand with our relatives who have been fighting extraction and have continued to provide a voice for the land they steward,”
“I am doing this for future generations. I am doing this because I hope to raise a child one day in this world, and climate change is too urgent, we can’t wait for politicians who have failed us, we have to take action,” said another Water Protector.
