Camp Migizi is a Two Spirit Anishinaabe led resistance camp, one of many camps formed to Stop Line 3. Camp Migizi is much more than a resistance camp however - it is a center for community support and mutual aid. To continue throwing down for the Peoples, the water, and the wild rice, Camp Migizi needs funds! Money donated will go towards bail funds, a solar panel project at Migizi, supplies, gas cards, and so much more.

What is Line 3?

Line 3 is a new pipeline being built from Alberta, Canada across northern Minnesota, to Superior, Wisconsin. This pipeline cuts through the heart of the treaty lands of the Anishinaabe nations and the traditional homelands of Oceti Sakowin Nation, ignoring many communities' explicit opposition to Line 3. This is a violation of sovereignty and ceded territory constitutional rights, adds to generational trauma, along with violating free and prior informed consent rights put forth by the UN. Additionally, the proposed route runs directly through over 180 sacred and culturally-significant sites, a desecration of human rights not even allowed in war according to the Geneva Convention .

Line 3 puts wild rice beds, wetlands, and waterways that the pipeline would run through at risk - the health of the Anishinaabe Peoples and the health of the wild rice go hand-and-hand. Enbridge, the company building Line 3, was responsible for the largest oil spill in US history. Line 3 has already spilled, although it is not yet completed (read more here ). If this wasn't already enough, Line 3 poses a huge threat to the climate. The carbon emissions from the oil moving through the new Line 3 is equivalent to carbon emissions from 50 new coal plants - a "social cost of carbon" equaling $287 billion. Climate change disproportionately harms Indigenous communities, even though Indigenous communities have relatively low carbon footprints.

To build Line 3, Enbridge has set up man camps - temporary housing for workers. These camps are directly related to increased drug and sex trafficking, along with violent crime, which often disproportionately harms Indigenous communities. Man camps are one of the many causes of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two Spirit (MMIWG2S). In fact, 2 Enbridge workers on Line 3 were recently arrested in a sex trafficking sting operation (read more here ).

The bottom line is Stop Line 3. Migizi Will Fly.
