Thousands Sign Support for Greenpeace and Red Warrior Society in Pipeline SLAPP
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Sept. 13, 2024
Energy Transfer plans to bankrupt Greenpeace USA with its $300 million lawsuit, and rewrite history by diminishing the role of Native people leading the movement to protect the water at Standing Rock from Dakota Access Pipeline. More than 290 organizations, and tens of thousands of individuals, have signed a letter supporting Greenpeace.
The SLAPP lawsuit names Greenpeace, Red Warrior Society and individual water protectors. Water protectors are also being served with third party subpoenas, in a fishing expedition for information. The lawsuit is slated for North Dakota State Court in Morton County in February of 2025 -- eight years after militarized police tore down and ransacked the water protector camps.
