Info from Licensor: "We were doing a peaceful walk up to the first construction sight and welcoming in the Colorado River Tribes. When we learned that the pipeline, which was notified of the sacred rock features and burial sights the day before, were destroying these sights. They attacked us with pepper spray and unleashed their dogs on us trying to stop the tractors tearing through our sacred sights." - Sarah Ortegon
