Relatives,

Right now, TC Energy, with the backing of Homeland Security, is moving
forward with construction of Keystone XL amidst the Covid-19 Pandemic. As
a Dakota elder who has been fighting Keystone XL for 12 years, I firmly
continue to protect my community and uphold our Treaty rights, like we
successfully did against Dakota Access last week. 

TC Energy (TransCanada) is trying to take advantage of the crisis we are
in right now. Trump’s “Homeland Security” just classified Keystone XL
“essential work” and they are rushing to start construction, putting
Indigenous and rural communities at risk of the COVID-19 pandemic. I ask
you to remember whose Homeland this is. Our elders and youth are the
treasures of our culture and they are at risk - that’s why I’m asking you
to help us stop construction activity immediately.

[ [link removed] ]Take action: Stop Keystone XL from spreading coronavirus in Indigenous
communities. 

Our communities are already extremely vulnerable to the increased violence
against women and girls when worker “man camps” are built near our
reservations. And now we’re also being put at a greater risk of getting
the coronavirus with an influx of workers coming to our territories.
Hospitals and Indian Health Services along the proposed Keystone XL route
are already ill-equipped to deal with the coronavirus public health
threat. It is imperative that we are not further marginalized in this
desecration of our humanity. 

[ [link removed] ]Join us in demanding the protection of our communities and a stop to
any construction of Keystone XL. 

This is exactly what it felt like when the US Military brought smallpox
blankets to our villages in an attempt to decimate us. But, we are still
here standing strong. 

[ [link removed] ]Stand with us.

Wopida, thank you,

Faith Spotted Eagle
