Signed on April 29, 1868, this treaty was an agreement between the US government and the Lakota people as well as other tribes at Fort Laramie in Wyoming territory, guaranteeing the Lakota ownership of the Black Hills and further land and hunting rights in South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming. Also, this treaty closes the Powder River Country to all white people and ended the Red Cloud's War, an armed conflict between the Lakota allied by other tribes against the United States.

The country became divided by the decision whether to view the situation from an economic point of view or a cultural point of view. Fortunately, many famous people got involved in defending the Standing Rock such as Malia Obama, who actively protests against the pipeline through social media as well as in real life.

The IEN is very active through public events and social media. They regularly update their website with influential articles and videos to encourage people to protest many unpublicized problems towards indigenous people as well as more well known issues such as the Standing Rock situation. They also are strong believers in physically helping the indigenous people rather than donating to them from afar.

“The Indigenous Environmental Network is extremely alarmed with President Donald Trump’s announcement of the two Executive Orders setting the stage for approving the dirty energy pipeline projects of the TransCanada Keystone XL pipeline and the Dakota Access Pipeline. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and other Sioux Tribes, as sovereign Native nations, were never consulted by Trump or his Administration on this decision that further violates the treaty rights of the Lakota, Nakota, Dakota people. Trump is portraying his true self by joining forces with the darkness of the Black Snake pipelines crossing across the culturally and environmentally rich landscape of the prairie lands of America." - Jade Begay, member of the IEN.

Their own sacred land is being taken away which both endangers their culture and environment and water. The Native Americans are the original people from the US, and if the US government continues advancement in the pipeline, it shows that our country has truly learned nothing from our past of racism and taking land from native people.
