The protesters held signs that promoted clean energy and expressed their anger at the bank in front of its branch for financing a portion of the project. Perry Bigsoldier, who claims Native American tribal heritage, said he hoped people would see them and think about the issue. “Our first mission was to make people aware of this,” he said. “Of course there’s only seven or eight protesters, but quality over quantity. These are dedicated people and that’s what we’re seeing across the nation, dedicated people that are tired of oppression and injustice.” The pipeline has caused a lot of disagreement for months as a Texas-based company has sought to build a portion of it across land in North Dakota that a Native American tribe holds dear. People have protested around the country, and hundreds remain at the site protesting its construction. 4. Why are people protesting against the Texas-based company around the country?
