Veterans 4 Standing Rock
The thousands of veterans who came to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline may be headed to Flint, Michigan, to protest the water crisis.
Just days after they arrived at the Standing Rock Sioux protest camp to join the activists protesting against the Dakota Access oil pipeline, a group of U.S. military veterans have a new mission, and a new destination—Flint, MI, where the crisis over the city’s contaminated water is still raging.
“We don’t know when we are going to be there but we will be heading to Flint,” Wes Clark Jr., who helped organize the thousands of veterans who flooded into Standing Rock in recent days, told MLive.com. “This problem is all over the country. It’s got to be more than veterans. People have been treated wrong in this country for a long time.”
