Day 3 at Standing Rock: End of Trump
/About the Music: “End of Trump”
From the musician, Cee Goods:
High intensity, ready for anything. Will reach what you seek by any means necessary.
I took the above photo while wearing ear protection, eye protection and a surgical mask, standing across the railroad tracks from a row of militarized police assembled in a line to face off with peaceful demonstrators. Armed with tanks, sound cannons, tear gas, tasers, batons and guns, they flex their muscle against the people they are sworn to protect, instead defending the interests of a corporation.
They stand against the people as a symbol of capitalist greed and fear, misguided stormtroopers defending a dark empire.
Even more powerful than their terrible might and aggression is the power of love and prayer being reflected back at them. We are protecting this water for those officers, too, and for their children. And we've told them so. And then they've attacked.
We pray that love will replace the fear and that our connection to the earth and each other can overcome the divisiveness that stands in our path.
