A group led by Arlington United for Justice with Peace protested TD Bank in Cambridge’s Central Square\u00a0this\u00a0evening “in solidarity with the Standing Rock Sioux tribe against the Dakota Access Pipeline.” Protesters alleged that the bank is one of the supporters of the 1,100 mile fracked-oil pipeline currently under construction from shale fields in North Dakota to Peoria, Illinois.<\/p>\n

The pipeline “is slated to cross Lakota Treaty Territory at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation where it would be laid underneath the Missouri River, the longest river on the continent,” according to the protesters, endangering a source of fresh water for the tribe and 8 million people living downstream. Opponents of the project also say pipeline construction would damage many sites that are sacred to the Standing Rock Sioux and other indigenous nations.<\/p>\n
