We as grassroots indigenous women from Ontario, are traveling to stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline once and for all. We are asking for your help with the cost fuel to get there and back again with our messages of solidarity. Any unused funds raised for fuels costs, will be donated equally between the legal defense fund for the Red Warrior Camp & the Sacred Stone Camp.

For tens of thousands of years our people have had a profound spiritual connection the to land and water now known as North America. We understand the urgency to shut down projects like the DAPL, Mount Polley, Alton Gas, clearcut logging and the seemingly unregulated, state sponsored, corporate profit driven, destruction of our Mother Earth.

We support the frontline warriors at the Sacred Stone Camp & Red Warrior Camp. We are bringing with us our skills to share, our prayers to be lifted in as one voice and our love for Nibi (water) will be united. We will stand and help protect the sacred sites and stop the impending pollution of the drinking water of the more that 16 million people downstream from the DAPL project. Since first contact we have been defending the land for our future generations and now we ask you to stand with us for the future of all of humankind. There is no need for corporations to continue to extract from the earth for unsustainable dirty energy projects.

We ask our Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and Cree brothers and sisters of Ontario to ask questions at their band office. Find out where your communities money is invested. If we really want to help support our relations at Standing Rock, we need those boards and committees who oversee these portfolios to look at divesting from pipeline, mining, tar sands, logging investments. If you cannot be at Standing Rock physically, you can still stand with all those on the frontline of land and water defense by demanding to know how and where your community is investing your money. Where are your AANIT payments coming from?

We are all connected to each other because of water. Water knows no race, no gender and no borders. Whatever you can do to help support those willing to put their bodies on the line at Standing Rock is needed. Here are many other ways that you can help:
