My own contributions include social media shares, a donation to Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, publication of my own articles and sharing other articles on OpEdNews and social media ( some are listed at the end of this article.)

I'm proud that OpEdNews is shining in its coverage, at one point on the Labor Day weekend, before much of this information was out in the open, we featured six articles about Standing Rock on our front page at one time, one of them top headlined.

And I was inspired by many of the comments under the articles.

In a comment under the article Emergency Federal Hearing After Destruction of Sacred Native Sites, OpEdNews member Allen Kleemann said:

My wife had the greatest idea I wanted to share. First Kudos to Democracy Now for shining light on this. Now on to my wife's idea and before you flame us she is an Army wife and I am a former soldier of minor Native American heritage(like 2 great great grandmothers ago).

Her idea is the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe should simply protest the destruction of their heritage and burial sites by peacefully parking a bulldozer at Arlington National Cemetery, as this "affront to our heritage and disrespect towards our heroes" might get some actual media attention.
