Minnesota: Water Protectors' Encampment Challenges Line 3 Pipeline
------------------------------------------------------------------

In Minnesota, water protectors opposing the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline say
they've erected a traditional Ojibwe structure directly in the path of
the proposed line, which would carry tar sands oil from Alberta, Canada,
to a terminal in Superior, Wis. In a statement, the group Anti-Colonial
Land Defense said its Indigenous People's Day action was aimed at
stopping "serious threats to our water, land and air, in conjunction
with trespassing on Indigenous land."
