The film Awake
by Ellie Stock via Dialogue 05 Jun '17

Hi George, Thanks for your email about the film AWAKE. Glad you got a chance to see it. Saw it online when it was first released. During the Standing Rock protests, you could follow the producer of the film, Myron Dewey via his facebook: Digital Smokescreens--great video of what was happening--some of which is in the movie.. Below is a link to an article about the film--not sure how to view it now as it had a limited showing when it was online. I would also recommend Steve Newcomb's documentary: "The Doctrine of Discovery--Unmasking the Domination Code." FYI: Below are some other links to updates re Standing Rock: 1) Acquittal of Standing Rock Chairman David Archambault and others 2) Oil now flowing through the DAPL pipeline, although Standing Rock still it opposing it through the court system. 3) Three links related to infiltration, surveillance, intimidation of and spreading false narratives by Energy Transfer Partners-hired anti- jihadist security group Tiger Swan (operating without a license in N. Dakota) in cooperation with the FBI, police and other officials re Standing Rock Water Protectors--surveillance that continues at Standing Rock and beyond. People in Standing Rock knew there was outside surveillance. The announcer in the center ceremonial fire area at the Oceti Sakowin Camp (who made daily announcements, told stories, delivered mail, directed traffic, warned owners about their loose dogs, held up lost and found articles, etc.) used to joke when he made an announcement about a future action: "listen up all you infiltrators"... These are typical governmental and corporation strategies/tactics re undermining, dividing, and sewing seeds of distrust in communities trying to address issues of environmental and other injustices caused by governments and corporations. It takes incredible courage and persistence to continue to speak truth to power--with words and deeds. The Flint lead-in-water debacle was another example of government and corporate stonewalling and trying to make the victims look like the perpetrators. Many of these situations would still be hidden if it weren't for strong Moms and other citizens (I am always humbled in their presence), standing up, becoming knowledgeable about and addressing the root cause of the issue, and risking all for their rights, the rights of their families and generations to come: La Oroya, Oruro, Herculaneum, Westlake, Bridgeton,Times Beach, Flint, Standing Rock, Labadie, the Everglades, and the list goes on and on (add the places from your area)....all battling the ill effects of resource extraction contamination, non-renewable energy production, or contamination of water, air, soil, human and animal life due to human negligence, willful intent, and greed--environmental racism, many of the places related to indigenous communities. . Especially now that the US has withdrawn from the Paris Climate Agreement--giving more free rein to non-renewable energy producers, other polluters, and destroyers of life's well-being--may we be ever watchful and willing to stand up to and address such injustice as it affects not only our personal lives but all the beings on this interconnected Mother Earth, our only home.

I highly recommend it. It has live footage of the water protectors at Standing Rock and the attacks of the private security forces, along with conversations with police. Maybe Diane Greenwald can explain more about it, and where you can obtain it. It makes you wonder why there wasn’t more media coverage of the protest and exposure of the semi-military used to suppress the people on Indian grounds. Our film was followed by an informal talk by Tane Ward, Ph.D, an American Indian, who works for the Sierra Club, who put a clear report on not only the experience of Standing Rock, but of many other similar happenings across the US. I would also highly recommend him if you have a chance to hear him. George Holcombe geowanda1(a)me.com "Whatever the problem, community is the answer.
