Mni Wiconi – The Stand at Standing Rock

Mni Wiconi – The Stand at Standing Rock

Have you seen this powerful new video that was recently published on the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe's Facebook page? It's a video showing how the Stand with Standing Rock / NoDAPL movement all started. So great to hear this story from their own point of view, not just from the perspective of the media surrounding them.

Very touching. I know I got a tear in my eye watching all the tribal flags being flown in solidarity. Especially from my own tribe, Comanche Nation!
