“We stand with Standing Rock Sioux” was one of the signs some four dozen protesters of the Dakota Access Pipeline project held during a rally at Boston’s South Station yesterday morning. It was part of a day of national protests in support of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe’s ongoing protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Nationally, protesters have charged that the 1,100 mile fracked-oil pipeline, currently under construction from shale fields in North Dakota to Peoria, Illinois, could pollute the Missouri River as well as damage sites that are sacred to the Standing Rock Sioux and other indigenous nations.
