"America is great, if you are white."
We met Wasté Win Young at her home in Standing Rock Indian Reservation, where she was sewing 100 dresses for women supporters of the 'water protectors movement'. Wasté is from the Lakota Dakota tribe and is active in the struggle against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) construction. We asked her how she experiences being a 'water protector' and what America is to her.

In these short documentaries, we get close to people who fight to protect the water flowing in the Missouri River, from a potential oil-leak in the Dakota Access Pipeline construction. short white dresses
