The pipeline is 1,172 miles long and it will transport 470,000 barrels of oil per day. The pipeline will begin in North Dakota, travel through South Dakota, and Iowa, and end in central Illinois.The pipeline will be placed through the Standing Rock Sioux land, which is in North Dakota, and the pipeline would affect their only water supply if the pipeline spills.

The Civil War and its aftermath had great impacts on Native American tribes all across the country. At the start of the war, many tribes had decided to join the Confederacy, mostly because some of their tribe members had owned slaves. Since they were apart of the Confederate States of America, the Confederacy had decided to pay all of the annuities that the Government of the United States had provided. After the Civil War, the tribes that were apart of the Confederacy were severely punished. The…

monstrous rock formation that seemingly comes out of nowhere in the middle of a forest, and is said to have spiritual value to the native tribes that live in the surrounding areas.

about the Native Americans and about the Sioux reservation. Before Wednesday I did not know what the Bureau of Indian Affairs. I learned that they have two officers working at a time for the whole reservation. I also learned about a policy that I found very upsetting and think should be changed. In the reservation they do not share information with the state and other reservations. So someone could have three offenses for driving under the influence on the Sioux reservation and if they moved to…

In the beginning of this chapter; Sitting Bull and his tribe, the Hunkpapa people, commenced in a sun dance. Black bear, a leader of the Northern Arapahos invited some Southern Arapahos to Tongue River. They set up camp there, and had many hunts and dances. Because of this, many tribes in the Powder River dispersed all over the Big Horn Mountains and the Black Hills. When Star Chief Connor of the U.S. Military learned that theses various tribes were scattered, he said that the Native American…

Fort Laramie (also called the Sioux Treaty of 1868,) the Sioux were granted the ownership of the Black Hills and hunting rights to various parts of South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming.

Throughout my undergraduate and the first part of my graduate experience to become a school psychologist, I experienced a lot of doubt. Psychology was something I enjoyed and was relatively good at. I decided to keep going because honestly there was realistically nothing else for me to do. School psychology was something I would continue to pursue and try for at least a few years, and move on if I still did not “love” what I was doing. My practicum experience erased this doubt. I have learned…
