In the face of the Trump Administration fast tracking dangerous pipelines and new fossil fuel development that will put Indigenous and Black and Brown communities at risk, The Indigenous Environmental Network, P.O.W.E.R and grassroots activists from across the nation will gather for the Third Annual Healing Walk in the heart of the Bakken Oil Formation where oil is sourced for pipelines like the Dakota Access and Bayou Bridge Pipelines. In addition to the healing walk, a seminar and a toxic tour of the Bakken Oil Formation will take place.

The Standing Rock Nation Film Festival will be an event for people to come together as well as a media hub for the many filmmakers and videographers that have voiced support for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and the thousands of water protectors from around the globe. 

The Standing Rock Nation Film Festival aims to continue the momentum created by the over 500 Native American Nations, Bands, Communities & Water Protector Allies who came together at Standing Rock. The struggle is not over - Standing Rock is just the beginning and we are Still Standing Strong With Standing Rock.

The Flood never came to Standing Rock, so let's bring the Flood to the United Nations. 

From April 24th to May 5th the United Nations in New York City is holding the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, also known as PFII. Typically, these forums lack Native American representation, and often have Non-Natives speaking on behalf of Natives and their issues. This ends now. 

For two weeks, we need to show New York, The UN, and the world that Indigenous People are here, and can speak for themselves. 

The world will not forget what happened at Standing Rock. The world will no longer ignore the conditions on reservations, and the issues effecting indigenous people around the globe. 3/4 of the world's population are indigenous, and it's time they stop forgetting that. 

There are multiple levels of events within this forum, some more exclusive than others. We want to come out in full force at every level. From top to bottom. From panels at the UN headquarters to flash mob round dances in Time Square, we are going to Flood New York City. 

Whether you are registered for the forum or not, we are asking for all indigenous people and allies to come to New York City and show your support. As the strongest of warriors take the United Nations to speak, they will have the support of their brothers and sisters outside, praying, singing, marching and standing in solidarity. 

Thousands came to Standing Rock. Thousands came to DC. And we can do the same in New York City. 

We are planning a plethora of events, from demonstrations, to speaking engagements, to gatherings and dances and celebrations. For two weeks, let's make New York City our new home. 

More details to come as this develops and grows.
