The rally in Sydney on November 10.

A rally was held outside the US Consulate in Sydney on November 10 in solidarity with the Standing Rock protest camp against the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline.

The Dakota Access oil pipeline is threatening to pollute water and land of the Sioux and other Native American groups. If completed it will move almost half a million barrels of oil a day, worsening climate change and threatening the entire planet's survival.

This heroic protest is led by Native American people and supported by thousands of environment and community groups and individuals. Solidarity actions have been taking place all around the world.
