For many Indigenous peoples, water is sacred. Indigenous peoples have lived by important water sources throughout their histories. But in the 1800s, treaties with the US government and people settling in the West forced many Indigenous peoples to leave their homelands, to leave their water sources, and to move onto reservations. Indigenous peoples continue to stand for their communities in talks about water sources. From protesting dams and oil pipelines to improving access to clean water, Indigenous peoples fight for their water rights and to protect their homelands.
