Unarmed, peaceful protestors threw their bodies at
bulldozers and fought vicious dogs with their bare hands and flimsy sticks when
mercenaries hired by the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) attacked them near the
Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in Fort Yates North Dakota.
See-Ya-Ma (phonetic pronunciation) was in the forefront of
the fight to protect ancient burial sites and a way of life when he used his
body to shield a young mother and her son from the trained attack dogs. He
recounts the vicious attack in detail in this episode of The Truth Is Viral.
This show is dedicated to the memory of Mi. Rep. Peter
Pettalia who, like See-Ya-Ma, was a conservationist, outdoorsman, and ferocious
advocate for his family, friends, and constituents of Northeastern Michigan
whom he represented in the Michigan House.
