       A Native American president has been my dream. Please Mr.Looks
       Twice! Never lose the ambition!

       Not only do we need a Native American president, but we need one
       who has the courage to put all these old "white" colonial type
       walking corpses in their place!

       Lakota Historian Nick Estes on Thanksgiving, Settler Colonialism
       & Continuing Indigenous Resistance
       --- Quote ---
       > Lakota historian Nick Estes talks about Thanksgiving and his
       book "Our History Is the Future," and the historic fight against
       the Dakota Access pipeline at Standing Rock. "This history ...
       is a continuing history of genocide, of settler colonialism and,
       basically, the founding myths of this country," says Estes, who
       is a co-founder of the Indigenous resistance group The Red
       Nation and a citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe.

       Our History Is the Future: Standing Rock Versus the Dakota
       Access Pipeline, and the Long Tradition of Indigenous Resistance
       --- Quote ---
       > How two centuries of Indigenous resistance created the
       movement proclaiming "Water is Life"--and how it points the way
       to a new Indigenous future In 2016, a small protest encampment
       at the Standing Rock reservation in North Dakota, initially
       established to block construction of the Dakota Access oil
       pipeline, grew to be the largest Indigenous protest movement in
       the twenty-first century, attracting tens of thousands of
       Indigenous and non-Native allies from around the world. Its
       slogan "Mni Wiconi"--Water is Life--was about more than just a
       pipeline. Water Protectors knew this battle for Native
       sovereignty had already been fought many times before, and that,
       even after the encampment was gone, their anti-colonial struggle
       would continue. In Our History is the Future, Nick Estes traces
       traditions of Indigenous resistance leading to the #NoDAPL
       movement from the days of the Missouri River trading forts
       through the Indian Wars, the Pick-Sloan dams, the American
       Indian Movement, and the campaign for Indigenous rights at the
       United Nations. While a historian by trade, Estes also draws on
       observations from the encampments and from growing up as a
       citizen of the Oceti Sakowin (the Nation of the Seven Council
       Fires), making Our History is the Future at once a work of
       history, a personal story, and a manifesto.
