Bismarck, North Dakota - Sept 8, 2016



A small branch of Cedar, which is a sacred herb often used in ceremonies and during times of prayer, roasts on a fire while people gather to protest the Dakota Pipeline in North Dakota.

In a historic gathering of more than a hundred Native American tribes from across North America, protestors are rallying to stop the pipeline they fear will poison the Missouri River, which runs through the Standing Rock Sioux reservation.
