For the past eight months, daily life has not been easy for the protectors living at the Oceti Sakowin camp. Seeker takes you inside the camp where the harsh realities of North Dakota’s winter are in full force.

I was there that beautiful day that the pipeline construction was (temporarily) halted. ❤️ During my 3 separate visits there from FL, I learned and felt how life is supposed to be... I am forever grateful for Oceti Sakowin and the amazing souls I met there. I am still standing ✊ Love to all my relations. A’ho
I stand with Standing Rock.

THe thing you need to note is the winter-resistant technology of the Tipis. They are more than just a tent - their structure and materials were made for Turtle Island (north america) winters!
The people stand with you!
I actually think that vr is a stepback as it is quiet unaccessable at times, but after Seeker VR, hope is back, i believe that Seeker VR maybe one of the channels that will lead VR development.
Has anyone actually investigated the protesters claims? There was a court case specifically investigating the the sacred land claims, and the local water source has been moved to a further, newer, safer and upstream installation.
yep, their claims have been investigated fully several times and have been proven to be false.

Does anyone know where I could read about the court case? The truth often resists simplicity.
chris L - whatever you're attemting to say, you'll have to fill in the rest of whatever your imagination is providing, because nobody else has a clue what the fuck you're talking about.
yep, that's *REALLY* going to convince someone that you're rational and that they should listen to you, isn't it?
only realised it was a 360 video at the end.
stacky74 same, I feel pretty damn stupid right about now. I had to replay the video to watch it the right way.
The pipeline is several miles south of the reservation...oof.
The only problem with Pipeline is the complete disregard for the natives culture. people really need to stop being shitty towards others
we're not just water protectors anymore
1:21 there's no tower on top of the mountain on the right then suddenly at 1:23 there's a massive communications tower. Odd
Kinda sucks when your using a kindle and can't look around.

I love love love love love you family
Thought Seeker was a space exploration channel not CNN.
You can't beat the iron law of energy density with dreams of utopian primitivism.
2 fact corrections. Its NOT federal land. The land belongs to the Sioux Tribe. The Sioux Tribe never accepted buyout offers from the government so they still rightfully own the land. Secondly, law enforcement is using the weather as an excuse to stop the protests. Those people have chosen to be in that weather under their own free will to fight for this cause.
If the government/law enforcement cared about them freezing to death... LAW ENFORCEMENT WOULD'NT BE SPRAYING THEM WITH WATER IN SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES. There is video on UA-cam of "law enforcement" doing that.
Before publishing a video on such an important event please get your facts straight.
I showed up in the dead winter shortly after that particular incident and spoke first hand to people who were there. 100% Can confirm. Not even the worst thing I saw while there. The brutality was real...

Factually speaking your opinion is purely inaccurate. The US general government, or federal government as its referred to now; established rights to all land within the united states under discovery doctrine, a imperial british colonial law which is the foundation of US land laws. Any tribal land is inherently federal land, as the federal government inherited the land from britain as the original discoverer.
Excerpt from discovery doctrine wikipedia article:
_"(supreme court justice) Marshall found that ownership of land comes into existence by virtue of discovery of that land, a rule that had been observed by all European countries with settlements in the New World. Legally, the United States was the true owner of the land because it inherited that ownership from Britain, the original discoverer. "_
_"Chief Justice Marshall noted the 1455 papal bull Romanus Pontifex approved Portugal's claims to lands discovered along the coast of West Africa, and the 1493 Inter Caetera had ratified Spain's right to conquer newly found lands, after Christopher Columbus had already begun doing so,[9] but stated: "Spain did not rest her title solely on the grant of the Pope. Her discussions respecting boundary, with France, with Great Britain, and with the United States, all show that she placed it on the rights given by discovery. Portugal sustained her claim to the Brazils by the same title.""_
_"Marshall pointed to the exploration charters given to the explorer John Cabot as proof that other nations had accepted the doctrine.[9] The tribes which occupied the land were, at the moment of discovery, no longer completely sovereign and had no property rights but rather merely held a right of occupancy. Further, only the discovering nation or its successor could take possession of the land from the natives by conquest or purchase."_
_"The doctrine was cited in other cases as well. With Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, it supported the concept that tribes were not independent states but "domestic dependent nations".[9] The decisions in Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe and Duro v. Reina used the doctrine to prohibit tribes from criminally prosecuting first non-Indians, then Indians who were not a member of the prosecuting tribe.[10]"_
_"The doctrine has been cited by the US Supreme Court as recently as 2005, in City of Sherrill v. Oneida Indian Nation of New York. Writing for the majority, Ruth Bader Ginsburg stated that "Under the 'doctrine of discovery...' fee title [ownership] to the lands occupied by Indians when the colonists arrived became vested in the sovereign-first the discovering European nation and later the original states and the United States.""_
That is why all tribal land is legally speaking, under land laws considered federal land, and why tribes are subsidized with federal funding and not state funding in the states they reside. All lands were initially federal lands under discovery doctrine before the formation of state boundaries. The tribes "accepting a buyout" was subsequent to the lands already being conquered through discovery doctrine.
The state of the union speech of 1830 further clarified the us governments role post previous rulings by the supreme court.
@@OVER9000xDxD Factually Speaking that is Might makes Right.
Their idealism is so pathetic.
...and your callousness, even more so.
The people fighting against this are fucking idiots.
Maximum Borkdrive go drink some oil.
The upside down American flag speaks volume. Oil has saved billions of people throughout the world from freezing or starving to death.
Nahahci Le Okunpi
Pipelines are actually the most secure way to move oil
That would be great. In the meantime we're stuck buying oil from a country that slaughters gays or producing our own. (Assuming you're an American)
Mr. Rychehead if we don't get our own oil then we have to buy it from Saudi Arabia. We need to use pipelines for our oil.
Mr. Rychehead you're aware they use pipelines too right?
But that's not the point. The point is, that the pipeline is going through sacred land of the indigenous population.
Some Bullshit so we can't be energy independent because we might offend the tree spirits. I see your point
This is their land. We are all squatters
Don't these people have jobs?
Capstickk Don't you have any amount of respect?
Capstickk people with jobs don't live in teepees
ahh yes, try and paint people fighting for their country as jobless or stupid. Step 1 into making people look as if they are below you. Say that to the Veterans out there standing with them, i dare you.
Caps-
why do you think money-worship is acceptable?
No, Welfare.
Wherzour cu!??????????
Get outta the way hippies.
