Cause: How You Can Help in Supporting Standing Rock

I'm still on the fence about celebrating Thanksgiving it just doesn't seem right especially with everything that's been happening to the First Nation people in their stand against the pipeline in North Dakota. Many tribes and supporters have gathered for a peaceful protest in trying to protect the water unfortunately they have been met with militarized force by the police.

Tomorrow my family and other family members are supposed to go over to my aunt and uncle's house to celebrate the holiday but my heart is certainly not in it. I'm thinking of passing on the day to do something else, if I don't go I will make it up to my family another time.

If you have been hearing about the protest against the Dakota Pipeline and are interesting in wanting to help below is information I found on Twitter:
