Indigenous scholar Nick Estes, a citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe, recounts the fight against the Dakota Access Pipeline in his new book “Our History Is the Future.” He explores the Indigenous resistance for what’s also referred to as #NoDAPL or, simply, Standing Rock. What started as a protest turned into the Water Is Life movement that carries on in other fights involving corporate intrusion at the expense of Native sovereignty. Estes joins us for a discussion of “Our History Is the Future.”
