Cuts The Rope, who is Aoanii and Nakota, spoke of his hope for a non-violent resolution to the pipeline. \"We will stop the pipeline, and we will do it peacefully,\" he said.\n\n\nAn arcade of flags whip in the wind, welcoming visitors to the Oceti Sakowin Camp, where thousands have come to protest an oil pipeline. Each banner represents one of the more than 300 Native American tribes that have flocked to North Dakota in what activists are calling the largest, most diverse tribal action in at least a century, perhaps ever. \n\nIn the midst of this historic gathering, a familiar storyline emerges between the U.S. government and the indigenous people who have seen treaties and promises broken repeatedly. Will their efforts and personal sacrifices stop the pipeline? As Donald Trump prepares to take office, many doubt any injunction on construction will stand. \n\nStill they flock to Oceti Sakowin. They came alone, driving 24 hours straight across the Plains when they saw news on social media about the swelling protest. Some came in caravans with dozens of friends and relatives. They came with the hope that their voices, unified and resolute, would be heard.\n\n\"We say 'mni wiconi': Water is life,\" said David Archambault II, the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux, whose reservation sits just south of the pipeline's route. \"We can't put it at risk, not for just us, but everybody downstream.\" He added: \"We're looking out for our future, the children who are not even born yet. What is it they will need? It's water. When we start talking about water, we're talking about the future generations.\"", "Image Make": "Canon", "Image Model": "Canon EOS 5D Mark III", "Image Orientation": "Horizontal (normal)", "Image SamplesPerPixel": "3", "Image XResolution": "300", "Image YResolution": "300", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Inch", "Image Software": "Adobe Photoshop 21.0 (Macintosh)", "Image DateTime": "2020:10:28 11:11:24", "Image ExifOffset": "2140", "Thumbnail Compression": "JPEG (old-style)", "Thumbnail XResolution": "72", "Thumbnail YResolution": "72", "Thumbnail ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Inch", "Thumbnail JPEGInterchangeFormat": "2814", "Thumbnail JPEGInterchangeFormatLength": "6692", "EXIF ExposureTime": "1/2000", "EXIF FNumber": "5", "EXIF ExposureProgram": "Aperture Priority", "EXIF ISOSpeedRatings": "250", "EXIF SensitivityType": "Recommended Exposure Index", "EXIF RecommendedExposureIndex": "250", "EXIF ExifVersion": "0230", "EXIF DateTimeOriginal": "2016:09:09 11:14:35", "EXIF DateTimeDigitized": "2016:09:09 11:14:35", "EXIF ShutterSpeedValue": "1370723/125000", "EXIF ApertureValue": "290241/62500", "EXIF ExposureBiasValue": "-1", "EXIF MaxApertureValue": "1", "EXIF MeteringMode": "Pattern", "EXIF Flash": "Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode", "EXIF FocalLength": "35", "EXIF SubSecTimeOriginal": "96", "EXIF SubSecTimeDigitized": "96", "EXIF ColorSpace": "sRGB", "EXIF ExifImageWidth": "750", "EXIF ExifImageLength": "500", "EXIF FocalPlaneXResolution": "1600", "EXIF FocalPlaneYResolution": "1600", "EXIF FocalPlaneResolutionUnit": "3", "EXIF CustomRendered": "Normal", "EXIF ExposureMode": "Auto Exposure", "EXIF WhiteBalance": "Auto", "EXIF SceneCaptureType": "Standard", "EXIF BodySerialNumber": "172028008110", "EXIF LensSpecification": "[35, 35, 0/0, 0/0]", "EXIF LensModel": "EF35mm f/1.4L USM", "EXIF LensSerialNumber": "0000000000"}
