从2016年4月开始，数千人在Standing Rock Suoux部落成员的领导下，聚集在营地，停止达科他州管道(DAPL)的建设--创造了#NoDAPL运动。我担心的是，#NoDAPL的批评者经常专注于为管道的安全预防措施辩护，或者陆军工程兵部队在咨询部落时所做的多次尝试。然而，评论家们很少涉及拉唐娜·勇敢的公牛·阿拉德所说的“更大的故事”。对我来说，作为#NoDAPL的土著支持者，更大的故事中有一条线索涉及DAPL对部落的不公正。这种不公正的类型是许多其他土著人民可以认同的-美国殖民者殖民主义。我试图展示DAPL背后的殖民者殖民不公正有多个层面，在本文结束时，我将从19世纪美国对条约承诺的不尊重，到21世纪的环境可持续性和气候变化。
Starting in April 2016, thousands of people, led by Standing Rock Sioux Tribal members, gathered at camps to stop the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) — creating the #NoDAPL movement. I am concerned with how critics of #NoDAPL often focus on defending the pipeline’s safety precautions or the many attempts the Army Corps of Engineers made at consulting the Tribe. Yet critics rarely engage what LaDonna Brave Bull Allard calls “the larger story.” To me, as an Indigenous supporter of #NoDAPL, one thread of the larger story concerns how DAPL is an injustice against the Tribe. The type of injustice is one that many other Indigenous peoples can identify with — U.S. settler colonialism. I seek to show how there are many layers to the settler colonial injustice behind DAPL that will take me, by the end of this essay, from U.S. disrespect of treaty promises in the 19th century to environmental sustainability and climate change in the 21st century.
