Right on @mada. It's why I find what you are saying so fascinating. What happens when there are larger institutions with a lot of influence (media, political, etc.) who are peddling the stories that most of us want nothing to do with? It really does feel like there is a dramatic shift taking place though, with Standing Rock certainly an epicenter.
Anyway, again, greatly enjoyed your writing and I checked out your website....I'll probably buy your book at some point. Best to you!
