Raising awareness is crucial, this is how you get people to help fight for your cause. This is the earth we all share so this should be important to everybody not just Native Americans. 

Ways we can improve our strategies are by finding more, and more ways to protest. Everybody should be heard. No matter how bad the situation is protesting peacefully is always the right way to go, violence should not be used to solve the problem.

We can make America environmentally just by being conscious of the space we share, and others. We need to understand the impact economically the government has on our society, and surroundings.
