Greetings relatives across the hemispheres. We write you this message from the active frontline resistance along the banks of the sacred Mni Sose river on sovereign Lakota treaty territory.

We are a growing community of dedicated water protectors that have been peacefully defending sacred water from the impending construction/destruction of the Dakota Access Pipeline. We come from many nations and many struggles to denounce the violence done unto our sacred mother by resource extraction industries.

As we fulfill our responsibility to protect this land and water for future generations we are constantly met with heavy-handed responses and state sanctioned repression from militarized government forces. Police harassment in the form of daily helicopter and drone surveillance of our home encampment, the threatened use of military grade weapons, illegal road blockades, and racial profiling are all fear tactics of intimidation intended to break our warrior spirits. Yet we still stand strong in prayer, always united in our collective vision to defeat this Black Snake.

Pipeline investors are desperate to complete their $3.7 billion project on time and winters approach is making living conditions on the plains much more harsh. We now must ask all Land Defenders, Water Protectors, and Strong Hearts to hear our War Cry and join us here in Standing Rock immediately. We are requesting reinforcements from skilled and trained Warriors prepared to evict the Dakota Access Pipeline and protect our homelands and ways of life. Let us kill this Black Snake once and for all.

With Love & Conviction from the Warpath,
Black Snake Killaz - Red Warrior Camp

Saludos a nuestros familiares a través de los hemisferios. Les escribimos este mensaje desde el frente activo de resistencia a lo largo de las orillas del río sagrado, Mni Sose, desde el territorio soberano Lakota.
Cada vez, somos una comunidad más grade de los protectores del agua dedicados, de manera pacífica, a defender el agua sagrada de la inminente construcción / destrucción causada por los oleoductos de la petrolera, Acceso Dakota (DAPL, por sus siglas en ingles). Venimos de muchas naciones y muchas luchas para denunciar la violencia perpetrada a nuestra madre sagrada
(la tierra) causada por las industrias de extracción de recursos.
A medida que cumplimos con nuestra responsabilidad de proteger esta tierra y el agua, para las futuras generaciones, nos encontramos constantemente con las respuestas de mano dura y represión permitida por el estado de las fuerzas militarizadas del gobierno. El acoso policial en forma de vigilancia con helicópteros y drones es un zumbido diario en nuestro hogar en el campamento, la amenaza del uso de armas de grado militar, bloqueos ilegales de carreteras, y las detenciones basadas en la etnia o raza de las personas se han convertido en tácticas de intimidación destinadas a quebrar nuestros espíritus de protectores del agua. Sin embargo, todavía nos sentimos fuertes en la oración, siempre unidos en nuestra visión colectiva de derrotar a esta Serpiente Negra.
Los inversionistas de los oleoductos están desesperados por completar su proyecto de $ 3.7 millones de dólares a tiempo y el invierno, que pronto va a llegar, va a hacer que las condiciones de vida en las llanuras de Dakota del Norte sean mucho más duras. Ahora, tenemos que pedir a todos los defensores de la tierra, protectores de agua, y a los corazones fuertes que escuchen nuestra voz de guerra y que se unan a nosotros aquí en el campamento de Standing Rock inmediatamente. Estamos solicitando refuerzos de guerreros calificados y formados, preparados para desalojar al oleoducto Acceso a Dakota y proteger nuestras tierras y nuestro modo de vida. Matemos a esta serpiente Negra de una vez por todas.
Con amor y con la convicción del camino de la fe de la defensa del agua,
El campamento Red Warrior Camp

Mohawk Nation News 'The Verdict'

THE VERDICT

mnnlogo1

Please post and distribute.
MNN. Oct. 13, 2016. The US District Court of NY has proven that we onkwe’hon:weh cannot get a fair trial on ono’ware:keh, great turtle island. The jury ruled that the 51 NYS I-81 INDIAN Detail had a right to brutally attack over 100 men, women and children on May 18, 1997, without punishment. The people were conducting a thanksgiving ceremony on the Jones private property. This police state precedent must not be allowed to stand. This judgment will be appealed.  policestate1
Judge Frederick Scullin kept out crucial evidence of the pro se victims/the “onondaga 15”, he cross-examined and answered for the cops, selected the jury, most of whom worked for NYS entities, gave the victims 5 minutes for their opening statements and 5 minutes for their closing summation, while badgering and interrupting them throughout. Scullin did not allow any of the plaintiffs to present their case.
We remember!
We remember!
The trial came after an almost 20 year delay. Judge Scullin made many errors, such as:
1.Violations of Due Process of Law [5th and 14th Amendments], and violations of a right to a trial [7th amendment] by an impartial, neutral, and unbiased jury, and freedom of speech [1st amendment].
2. Racial profiling: NYS set up the para-military INDIAN Detail, the ultimate in systemic racial profiling. They did not create an “Italian Detail” or “Black Detail” or “White Detail”. Only those troopers who could actually be identified by Plaintiffs could be implicated in the attack, though each INDIAN Detail member is responsible.
"Your honour, I must protest this is tampering with the jury!"
“Your honour, I must protest this is tampering with the jury!”
3. Keeping out crucial evidence against the cops such as police videos and a 2009 decision of Justice Sotomayor of the US Supreme Court on Jones v. Parmley 98CV374.
4. Lawyers dropped Plaintiffs after 18 years, leaving them without lawyers.
5. “Punitive damages” were not to be considered by the jury for the INDIAN Detail defendants.
6. Plaintiffs were suddenly dismissed without notice [Shawn Jones, Nadine Bucktooth, and Robert Bucktooth III], who were young children at the time of the attack.
7. Dead Plaintiffs were struck from the record without Estate authorization.
Supt. George Beach: "Take off your nameplates".
Supt. George Beach: “Take off your nameplates”.
8. Name badges were removed by order of NYSP Supt. George Beach so victims could not identify them during the horrific attack. Cops had identical interrogatory answers and sworn evidence they forgot.
9. “Appeal my rulings” Scullin told the plaintiffs if they objected to his unexplained rulings.
10. Cross examined defendants and often answered for them.
11. Only one plaintiff was allowed to question witnesses though all had a right to do so.
12. Orders were to clear, arrest and mercilessly beat the onkwe’hon:weh on the “easement” by the side of I-81, which is part of the Jones property. “Don’t talk to anyone and take them anyway you can”. No negotiations! No orders! Get them off their property.
13. Justice Sotomayor of the US Supreme Court clarified in her 2009 judgment for the Second Circuit that the cops could not use “qualified immunity” as a defence. They are all responsible. “Andrew Jones … gave a non-exclusive and limited easement to the New York Department of Public Works to work on the 1-81 road that he also owned.” Judge Scullin refused to put this relevant case law in the case or jury instructions. In fact, the INDIAN Detail trespassed on the Jones private property to carry out the attack, according to Sotomayor.
14. Scullin overruled plaintiffs’ objections without explaining why. He sustained most of Defence Attorney Tim Mulvey’s objections.
15. Scullin instructed the jury without allowing plaintiffs to comment. 
16. Robert Bucktooth beating. One cop testified the six cops almost beat him to death with a steel tipped baton 55 times “for his own safety”.
"How am I supposed to know whether I'm guilty or not? - I'm a sociopath!"
17. Cameraman roughed up. James Parmley arrested him for disobeying police order not to film, indicating a cover-up of their illegal horrific assaults.
18. Plaintiffs never blocked the road. Police slowed traffic for construction. The people were conducting the ohenton kariwa tekwen ceremony, giving thanks to creation. Scullin rejected this inherent ceremony as defined by the 1st amendment.
19. Video audio excluded in trial that included “get him”, “commence arrest”, “kick ass” and the screams, crying and chaos of the hysterical children and women during the attack, who were 75% of the victims.
20. Plaintiff RJ complained he could not get a fair hearing and wanted to appeal. Scullin ordered over a dozen marshals to escort him from the Courtroom. RJ later informed Scullin that one marshal pushed him along and another called him a “savage.” Scullin suggested it did not happen.
Tribal chiefs: "Personally, I could never go back to wearing sheets".
Tribal chiefs: “Personally, I could never go back to sheets now”.
21. Onondaga tribal chiefs Oren Lyons, Ollie Gibson and others permitted the attack of their own people. Subpoenas to question them were improperly quashed on illegal sovereign immunity claims, as they are part of US and NYS laws.
22. No order to negotiate or disperse was given. Peaceful assembly and ceremonial fire started on May 8, 1997 until May 21. Justice Sotomayor said there was no place to disperse on private property. It was an unlawful attack.
23. Illegal taxation issue. The gathering and feast was to be followed by a peaceful discussion on the proposed illegal taxation of all onkwe’hon:weh communities by an illegal agreement between the onondaga tribal chiefs and NYS.
24. Arrests without any probable cause. One cop testified he “assumed” he could arrest! Andrew Jones has a right to have relatives and friends use his property peaceably. The police were the trespassers. larryville-blue-the-officers-career-progression-by-les-lethal
25. Special Investigator Salvatore Volvo. Parmley & Beach stopped him from reporting that police acted unlawfully. Scullin would not let him be a witness.
26. Trial transcript. Every word spoken in the Courtroom must be transcribed and made available to the public.
27.Plaintiffs were bullied and threatened with being dismissed from the case for objecting to his rulings and asking for explanations.
All were affected by the unwarranted police attack and beating. Many still suffer extreme mental anguish and physical damages. This is a bad judgment. It will be appealed. thahoketoteh.
As Stompin Tom Connors sings about the delay in justice that the “onondaga 15” are still dealing with: “When I was a lad, I was really bad, it wasn’t smart to be good. I beat up my dog, choked my frog, and acted just as mean as I could. I hit all the girls, and put gum in their curls, cause I like to hear them cry and plead. I’d punch the little boys and steal all their toys cause I knew they weren’t smarter than me. They call me Ben, here in the pen. where you take the guff and you suffer. But I’ll be free when i’m 53, and I bet I’ll be a whole lot tougher, I hope I’ll be a whole lot tougher. Oh, what’s the use, I guess I’m not a very good bluffer”. 
NYS verdict is that the INDIAN Detail can commit a crime without penalty:

Jon Engle, Sr. 'The birth of abilities, to create life or destroy life'




Jon Engle, Sr. 'The birth of abilities, to create life or destroy life'
El nacimiento de las habilidades de crear o de destruir la vida

By Jon Engle, Sr.
Censored News
English with Spanish translation

The late Albert White Hat once talked to me about the word, "Wakan." He said that today we translate this word to mean, Sacred, Holy or Mysterious. He went on to say that these were Christian influences on our language. Leksi Albert said that there was a much deeper meaning and referenced our Creation Story. He said that Inyan's blood was Kan, had the ability to create life or destroy life and was both good and bad. He said that when you add the word yeja to wakan it becomes, wakanyeja, our word for children. He said that yeja is the birth of those abilities, the ability to create life or destroy life, both good and bad.
I have thought about this many times since then and now understand and have come to accept that there is both good and bad in life. Today as I look around the camps I can see both the good and the bad. People have come and exploited our resistance. They are no longer here to Stand with Standing Rock, they are here to promote their own causes. As I look around I also see the good. I see that something beautiful and powerful is happening. I see an awakening of indigenous people to protect the water. We have a genetic memory, still connected to our ancestors and it is that connection that is driving this movement. Remember, this movement began with a prayer.
As winter approaches It's time to restructure the camp. Leksi Rick Two Dogs said, "It is a time in our history which was for told in our prophecies. The last time we gathered as a Oceti
Sakowin was at Mato Paha (Bear Butte ) in 1845! We gathered because of the impending war with the whites! We need to reform the camp in the way it was in 1845!! So we will began the change back to our original way of life and governance! It is in the prophecy! We must do it!!! Or forever be lost!!"
It's up to us, we can do this. We can make the Oceti Sakonwin live again. Iyukca Po!

El fallecido Albert White Hat, una vez me habló de la palabra, "Wakan."Dijo que hoy traducimos esta palabra para expresar, sagrado, santo o misterioso. Se llegó a decir que se trataba de la influencia cristiana en nuestro idioma. Leksi Albert dijo que había un significado mucho más profundo y hacía referencia a nuestra historia de la creación. Dijo que la sangre de “Inyan” era “Kan,” tenía la capacidad de crear vida o destruir la vida y era a la vez buena y malo. Dijo que cuando se agrega la palabra "yeja" a “Wakan” se convierte, "Wakanyeja," nuestra palabra para los niños. Dijo que "yeja" es el nacimiento de esas habilidades, la capacidad de crear vida o destruir la vida, tanto el bien como el mal.
He pensado en esto muchas veces desde entonces y ahora entendiendo y he llegado a aceptar que existe tanto el bien como el mal en la vida. Hoy cuando miro alrededor de los campamentos en Standing Rock, Dakota del Norte en Estados Unidos, puedo ver tanto el bien y como el mal. Hay gente que ha venido y explotado nuestra resistencia para su propio beneficio. Ya no están aquí para ayudar a Standing Rock, están aquí para promover sus propias causas. Miro a mi alrededor y veo también el bien. Veo que algo bello y poderoso está sucediendo. Veo un despertar de los pueblos indígenas para proteger el agua. Tenemos una memoria genética, sigue conectada a nuestros antepasados y es esta conexión la que está impulsando este movimiento. Recordemos que este movimiento comenzó con una oración.
A medida que se acerca el invierno, nos llega la hora de reestructurar el campamento. Leksi Rick Dos Perros dijo: "Este es un momento de nuestra historia, que estaba escrito en nuestras profecías. ¡La última vez que se reunieron como un Oceti Sakowin fue en Mato Paha (la mota del oso) en 1845!  ¡Así que empezaremos el cambio para regresar a nuestros modos de vida originales y a nuestros propios gobiernos! ¡Es la profecía! ¡Debemos hacerlo! ¡O para siempre se perderá! "

Depende de nosotros, podemos hacer esto. Podemos hacer que el Oceti Sakonwin viva de nuevo. ¡Iyukca Po!

HOUSTON -- Prayer Action Opposing Dakota Access and Trans Pecos Pipelines



Oil-impacted communities from across the country descend on Energy Transfer Partners in Houston in Solidarity with Standing Rock
#NoDAPL actions spread across the country following Indigenous Peoples
Houston—Grassroots leaders from oil and energy-impacted communities across the country will gather at the Houston offices of Energy Transfer Partners for a prayer action in solidarity with the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and thousands of water defenders mobilizing against the Dakota Access Pipeline. In one of the largest environmental justice mobilizations in history, Standing Rock water defenders have drawn together more than 5,000 people representing over 280 Indigenous Nations and Tribes and forced a federal injunction against one of the largest oil pipeline projects in North America. Energy Transfer Partners has drawn national attention for driving both the Dakota Access Pipeline and the equally controversial Trans Pecos Pipeline, that has also violated the rights of Indigenous Peoples in West Texas, and poses significant threat to the water and land for many communities in Texas.

RENO: Native Americans run over in hate crime at Abolish KKKolumbus Day March





Hate Crime Videotaped as Pickup Plows into 
Native American Marchers

Reno police refused to arrest the driver in this hate crime, as grandmother hospitalized with fractured pelvis

Update: Reno Police charge victims of this hate crime, and file only minor charge against driver. AIM press conference on Saturday.

Update Friday, Oct. 14: Reno, Nevada, police, continuing their policy of protecting the 'good ole boys' who are white in this city, have charged the driver who intentionally drove into a Native American rights march only with a misdemeanor charge of provoking an assault. One grandmother is hospitalized with a fractured pelvis after being run over when the truck plowed through the Indigenous Peoples gathering on Monday.
Videos show the driver insulted and threatened the marchers before intentionally driving into them.
This was attempted vehicular homicide and a hate crime. The driver did not stop immediately after driving into the marchers, as the wounded lay on the pavement. There should also be a charge of felony hit and run.
In the news, three warrants issued

RENO (Monday) -- Five people were injured when a white pickup truck plowed into Native American rights activists, protesting Columbus Day and speaking out for the defense of the water at Standing Rock.
During the Abolish KKKolumbus Day March on Monday, at about 6:40 p.m. the driver of the pickup stalked the marchers and yelled insults at them, before slamming into Native Americans and supporters, including a grandmother who is hospitalized.
With multiple fractures to her pelvis, and in the hospital, the grandmother said, 'I feel this was attempted vehicular homicide. He could have killed us, and he didn't care."
Police have not arrested the driver.
The hate crime was caught on video and the license plate is in clear view below.
Quanah Parker Brightman of United Native Americans interviewed the victim today in the hospital. She spoke out and said the driver should be arrested.
"I feel pretty strongly about it. This guy was belligerent, he had been following us around making comments."
"He had the choice to go around, either direction on the streets, and he plowed right through us."
"I want them to arrest this guy," said the grandmother from her hospital bed.
Raquel Arthur, president of the American Indian Movement of Northern Nevada, told Censored News that the two men in the pickup were seated there during the prayer circle.
"They were seated in the back smoking weed, making disruptive comments," Arthur said.
As the group marched to the Arch in Reno, the two men continued to yell insults at the marchers, she said.
When they reached the Arch, she said, "They were really threatening us." Arthur said the grandmother who is hospitalized had planned to leave today for Standing Rock, North Dakota, to support the water protection of the Missouri River, and protection of the ancestral burial places.
"We were there peacefully. We see this as pre-meditated. We see this as a hate crime."
The recorded audio from the scene reveals a marcher saying, "You gotta go around."
The driver responds, "I'll f-ck you up, I'll f-ck you up."
The driver again yells, "Get the f-ck out of my way."
The driver then guns the engine and drives into the marchers.
After hitting marchers, and when they are on the pavement, the driver flees the scene.
Arthur said, “As President of American Indian Movement of Northern Nevada, we are all deeply sadden by the events that unfolded with last nights protest. Our intent was to bring light and Truth to the injustices against us Indigenous People throughout history from 1492 to this present day.
“The fight is never-ending in this ‘civilized' world. Truth be told, there is a lot of hate to people of color. As we witnessed the acts of hate last night however we can not fight hate with more hate. So we ask all to continue the good fight out of love and prayer. We are nothing without prayers. Believe in prayer, carry your Faith to insure a better world for the children and those who have yet to be born. We will all stand before The Creator when that time comes. Meanwhile live with Love, Faith, Hope and Charity for All People. Pesha u, Moogwa Kwena Wahebeho.”

Nevada law: Felony Hit and Run -- Involving death or bodily injury (NRS 484E.010)
Fleeing after a car accident that results in bodily injury or death is a category B felony. The abridged legal definition of felony "hit and run" in Nevada states that, "The driver of any vehicle involved in an accident resulting in bodily injury to or the death of a person shall immediately stop his or her vehicle at the scene of the accident and exchange information and render aid."

Crimen de odio grabado en video cuando una camioneta atropella
 a un grupo manifestantes indígenas norteamericanos

RENO, NEVADA, ESTADOS UNIDOS - Cinco personas resultaron heridas cuando una camioneta blanca chocó contra activistas que defienden los derechos de los indígenas de Norteamérica cuando protestaban contra el Día de Cristóbal Colón y hablaban a favor de la defensa del agua en la reservación Standing Rock en el estado Dakota del Norte en Estados Unidos.

Durante la marcha, que se llamó "Abolición de KKKolumbus," este lunes 10 de octubre, aproximadamente a 18:40pm, el conductor de la camioneta acosó a los manifestantes y les gritó insultos, antes de usar su vehículo para embestir a los indígenas norteamericanos, incluyendo a una abuela que está hospitalizada.
Con múltiples fracturas en la pelvis, y en el hospital, la abuela dijo: "siento que esto fue un intento de homicidio usando un transporte vehicular. Él nos podría haber matado, y no le importo."
La policía no arrestó al conductor. El crimen de odio fue capturado en video y la placa de matrícula se ve claramente. Quanah Parker Brightman, de la organización Indígenas Americanos Unidos, entrevistó a la víctima, hoy en el hospital. Ella habló y dijo que el conductor debe ser detenido.
"Me siento muy convencida de que debería ser detenido. Este tipo era agresivo, nos había estado siguiendo por los alrededores y había estado haciendo comentarios groseros."
"El conductor tenía la opción de dar la vuelta y continuar su camino en ambas direcciones de la calla, pero decidió embestirnos con su camioneta."
"Quiero que arresten a este tipo", dijo la abuela desde su cama de hospital.
El audio grabado durante la escena revela a un manifestante diciendo: "Tienes dar la vuelta."
El conductor responde (usando insultos): "¡Voy a joderlo a usted, voy a lastimarlo!"
El conductor grita de nuevo, “¡Sal de mi camino!"
El conductor, en ese momento, enciende el motor de su vehículo y decide atropellar a los manifestantes.
Después de golpearlos, cuando ya están tirados en la acera, el conductor huye de la escena del crimen.
Raquel Arthur dijo: "Como Presidenta del Movimiento Indios Americanos del Norte de Nevada, todos estamos profundamente entristecidos por los acontecimientos que ocurrieron durante las protestas anoche. Nuestra intención era llevar la luz y la verdad sobre las injusticias que existen contra nosotros, los pueblos originarios, a lo largo de la historia, desde 1492 hasta el día de hoy.
La lucha es interminable en este "mundo civilizado". A decir verdad, “hay mucho odio contra la gente de color.” Aunque fuimos testigos de actos de odio anoche, no podemos combatir el odio con más odio. Así que les pedimos a todos seguir la buena batalla de amor y oración. No somos nada sin oraciones. Creer en la oración, llevar su fe para asegurar un mundo mejor para los niños y los que aún tienen que nacer es importante. Todos estaremos ante el Creador cuando llegue el momento. Mientras tanto debemos vivir con amor, fe, esperanza y caridad para todas las personas. "Pesha u, Moogwa Kwena Wahebeho."
