Respectfully Request UW President, Ana Mari Cauce, to Stand with Standing Rock


Respectfully Request UW President, Ana Mari Cauce, to Stand with Standing Rock
The Issue
Whereas, the University of Washington is built on Coast Salish peoples land and appropriated from Indigenous Peoples of the Pacific Northwest, we the 'Native Organization of Indigenous Scholars' (NOIS), acknowledge the violence and oppression the Standing Rock Sioux are actively enduring in their protection of water, sacred land, and Indigenous sovereignty.
Therefore, NOIS and UW students, staff, and community members—signing this petition— respectfully ask and demand that University of Washington President, Ana Mari Cauce, and UW leaders and associates, officially and publicly declare our University's support of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. Stand with Standing Rock and the Water Protectors. Water is Life. #NoDAPL.
