On Feb. 9, 2021, Youth from Standing Rock and Cheyenne River Sioux Nations Will Run to #ShutDownDAPL
Statement from the Standing Rock Youth Council:
On Tuesday, February 9th 2021, we, the youth
From the Standing Rock and Cheyenne River Sioux Nations
Are going to run to the Cannonball River
The site of our resistance 4 1/2 years ago
The Dakota Access Pipeline is currently operating without a legal federal permit.
President Joe Biden wants to be seen as a climate president
But he cannot claim that title until he stops this pipeline
And others like it, like Line 3.
We ask the world to join us as we run again
Record yourself running, wherever you are, in solidarity
And make as much noise as you can on social media
To end this injustice
And put pressure on President Biden to stand on the right side of history
Post your videos, share our posts, tag President Biden and VP Harris in the posts and use the hashtags
#ShutdownDAPL
#ByeDenDAPL
#BuildBackFossilFree
and/or copy and post the following along with your video to sh
President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, I still #StandwithStandingRock and am taking the Standing Rock Challenge to join them in demanding #shutdownDAPL. The Dakota Access pipeline continues to operate illegally without the proper permit putting the Standing Rock Sioux nation at risk. #ByeDenDAPL
President Joe Bidenand Vice President Kamala Harris I am taking the #NoDAPL challenge because it’s time to #BuildBackFossilFree for our youth, land and water. #mniwiconi
Stand with our youth and with Standing Rock!
Thank you to A Tribe Called Red for your music
and all the youth and people who made this happen!
