Through Indigenous Eyes Dean Dedman Jr

Journey with Shiyé as he shares his truths, insights, wisdom and humor in this incredible, moving, true story of the Standing Rock movement. From before the first tipi was erected until after the camps were raided, Shiyé tells the stories of water protectors who try to stop an oil pipeline with their prayers and presence. He takes us on adventures with his drone. He tells us about the water protectors who were met with violent resistance and how this all ties into the Indigenous oppression in the United States today. And he tells us the story of how the water protectors spread out like seeds to start a worldwide awareness movement of Indigenous and environmental issues.
