The refuse to give up their land, they link hands pray and practice traditional activities while the Dakota pipeline force them to leave.

In conclusion Badass (Indigenous) Women Caretake Relations, by Kim TallBear talked about how the different organizations was founded and lead. by strong women that were taking a stance on social problems that impact us tremendously.

This week's text was very interesting and inspiring to me because it was about strong women who stand up for something that will benefit the world. Also it was interesting because more than often we only talk about how black people are put in bad situations but we don't really focus on indigenous people. When in reality we are all impoverished and share the same problems. This inspires me to stand up for something I take passion in changing or keeping consistent.
