In the article “By Eminent Domain or Some Other Name: A Tribal Perspective on Taking Land” by Stacy L. Leeds they discuss the matter of eminent domain. They state that “American Indians have long been confronted with the reality that no matter what legal interest one holds in property, those ownership interests are always subject to divesture by the government, whether tribal, state, or federal” (Leeds 52). Discuss the underlying implications of a government pushing for big fossil fuel industries over the safety of people, land, and water. If the above quote is true, where can tribes find accountability for the treaties? What hope can tribes and non-Indians find in the standing rock movement that is different from movements that have come before it? Using the film and the article to answer the question.
