STANDING ROCK SUPPORT
Ongiong
Oceti Sakowin Camp on December 9th 2016
SOL volunteers and directors are working with Oceti-Sakowin organizers on site, in the production studio, and in social media. We have been in multiple actions, on the Backwater Bridge, DAPL supply yards and at Turtle Island. SOL also directs donations to organizers and the general fund at Oceti-Sakowin.

| SOL Executive DIrector Mauro Oliveira edited and scored the music in this 1:47 second fundraising video. All the scenes were shot by many men and women who risked their lives and equipment to document brutal human rights crimes by the Morton County North Dakota Sheriff, DAPL security, the North Dakota National Guard and law enforcement from surrounding states. The media team at Standing Rock has been crucial to bringing out the truth in dozens of actions related to the DAPL resistance over the last 8 months. Digital Smoke Signals and satellite crews have been capturing evidence as well as delivering the news as mainstream media flaunts a black out on the revolutionary events taking place at Standing Rock. Myron Dewey, Dallas Goldtooth and dozens of camera women and men, along with battle hardened drone pilots have earned the respect of an international audience on the edge of their seats!

Defiance Canyon Raptor Rescue
SOL project expands into wildlife rescue in official capacity as Battle Creek Alliance Director Marily Woodhouse is now licensed to heal raptors.
To further our mission of taking substantive action to protect the natural world, Battle Creek Alliance members began rescuing and rehabilitating wildlife several years ago. We have expanded to also operate as Defiance Canyon Raptor Rescue specializing in eagles, hawks, and owls. Wildlife rescue is not funded by governmental agencies; generally, wildlife agencies do not perform rescues.
People often focus on individual species, but we believe every species is important, whether it is on a man-made list or not. Habitat fragmentation and loss have serious effects on wildlife. Wildlife rescue, in conjunction with our work to keep watersheds and forests intact, addresses the root causes of the problems.
SHUT DOWN CREECH
March-April 2016
Hosted by:
CODEPINK: Women For Peace
Veterans For Peace
Nevada Desert Experience
Voices for Creative Nonviolence
SOL Directors and EEK Team participated in the 2nd national mobilization of nonviolent resistance to shut down killer drone operations in Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan,Yemen, Somalia and everywhere.
EEK Team Project Manager, Mahai’a Oliveira, 19, was arrested, along with 26 other activists from around the nation. Mahai’a and a Code Pink grandmother, Shirley Osgood, have been singled out of the group and are the only two standing trial. Charges were dismissed on most of the other activists and the remaining caught up in a tactic law enforcement and the courts have turned to- traffic citations instead of criminal charges like trespassing. Their trial is July 19, 2016
About 150 activists joined us from 20 states across the country, including over 50 veterans of war. In a very successful resistance action, we were able to interrupt business as usual for several hours. In 2014 there were 34 activists ultimately arrested. Please join us, and help spread the word. Together we are PEACE!
During Creech Week, we hold vigils daily, Mon.-Fri., during rush hour commute, which is 6:00-8:00 am and 3:00 – 5:00 pm at the base gates. Drone pilots enter and exit past the activists and their messages. Participants who can only join part of the week are urged to participate Wed.-Fri. Both years, on friday at the end of the week’s vigils we have the largest resistance….mass mobilization and multiple actions that lead to arrests and more opportunities to share the message in the courts and the streets of Las Vegas.
