Chief Arvol Looking Horse and part of his delegation walk around a burnt out barricade before a meeting with law enforcement authorities. As dawn broke the sound of prayers wafted up to the hills above the camp at Standing Rock. Large numbers of people had set out from the camp toward the police line for a prayer circle. The mood was prayerful, but also defiant, as they arrived at the bridge, where remnants of burned vehicles remained from the unrest. Members of different tribes listened as Chief Arvol Looking Horse, who wore an elaborate head dress spoke to the crowd, urging them to stay the course as construction continued up the road. Standoffs between the Water Protectors and law enforcement over the Dakota Access Pipeline continue in the area that has become ground zero for opposition to a $3.7 billion project that would move domestic crude oil across four states and destroy tribal lands.
