In Bismarck, North Dakota, hundreds of people protested Monday outside the offices of the law firm Fredrikson & Byron P.A., which is representing Dakota Access LLC—the company behind the $3.8 billion oil pipeline that has faced massive resistance from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and other tribal nations. This is Tom Goldtooth, director of the Indigenous Environmental Network.

Tom Goldtooth: “We are part of a growing movement that is condemning this colonial legal system based upon property rights.”
