Standing Rock Sioux Chair on Militarized Repression & Ongoing Lawsuit to Stop Dakota Access Pipeline
The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe has won a major legal victory in federal court which may have the power to force the shutdown of the $3.8 billion Dakota Access pipeline. District Judge James Boasberg ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration failed to conduct an adequate environmental review of the pipeline, after President Trump ordered the Army Corps to fast-track and greenlight its approval. The judge requested additional briefings next week on whether the pipeline should be shut off until the completion of a full review of a potential oil spill’s impacts on fishing and hunting rights, as well as environmental justice. The pipeline faced months of massive resistance from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, members of hundreds of other indigenous tribes from across the Americas, as well as non-Native allies. We speak with Standing Rock Sioux Chair Dave Archambault II and Nick Tilsen, executive director of the Thunder Valley Community Development Corporation and a citizen of the Oglala Lakota Nation on Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.

Issue #1
Audio tags are fully supported and should be included.
- Martin
- The audio and the video player have the exact same content (open the pop-up windows to see the video player, the original view breaks it). Removing duplicates is a better way to handle this case than duplicating players.
Note that some source pages has only the audio player (without video player). In this case, my template generates correctly an <audio>. So, this is not an issue.
- Declined by admin
- The audio seems to be exactly the same in all the cases we tested. There is no essential information lost, so we consider this not critical.
