Hello! This is a general repository for research topics, data, writing, and images - spawned from two trips I'd made out to Standing Rock in November 2016 and February 2017. After discussions with various people at camp and beyond, I decided to try to collect various findings into one place - here.
Media has covered a lot of what happens day to day, and regardless of whether the camp physically exists the issues brought up by Standing Rock persist - be they cultural, environmental, scientific, legislative, or personal.
The hope here is to continue developing better understanding of these issues, and to help further change and knowledge where it's necessary.
Suggestions and contributions are more than welcome - feel free to email me or create a new issue.
