Part 1

• How are people using social media to fight for social justice in this particular situation?

• People are using hashtags and posting pictures that are making a stand against the government and those companies and corporations involved with the pipeline.

• 

• Research hashtags people have been using.

• #north dakota pipeline

• #No DAPL

• 

• #Standing Rock

• How effective are these methods of action?

• The methods of action of these protestors no matter what they do are not as effective as they need them to be because the government is still making it ok for them to have their land taken away. Yet that won’t stop the protesters because they do have methods that are effective like marching and protesting that is bringing awareness but it’s not working.

• 

• What is environmental justice and role does social media play in fight environmental justice?

• Environmental justice is justice for our environment and these protestors are trying to get justice for their water and their land, that could easily be tainted with oil and gas.

• Social media plays a huge role in everything including environmental justice bringing awareness to the protest.

• What do you think can improve the strategy?

• What I think can improve their strategy is having more lawyers and judges take a look at the case making sure that it is unconstitutional so that the government cannot take their land from them.

Part 2

• Summarize and write your opinion to the article

1st Article

My Summary

The article that I am reading is about the North Dakota Pipeline protesters. The protesters that are protesting the Pipeline that is going through the sioux tribe’s land others land and water put their resources in  danger. The article is titled “North Dakota Pipeline: Protesters vow to stand ground.” The protesters of this Dakota Pipeline  their land  and rights to this land is so important even though they were told to evacuate. The Standing Rock Sioux tribal Chairman Dave Archambault said that the protesters “  would continue even though protesters have been ordered to vacate an area where they have set up camp by next Monday.” They decided to stay and continue to protest against this 3.7million dollar pipeline. To protest this pipeline that would move almost 500, 000 barrels of crude oil across four states through the missouri river. This pipeline would actually transport 470,000 barrels of crude oil across four states every day. The article continues with the Us Army Corps warned the activists and protesters that they coud risk arrest if they continue. But the officials trying to get the protesters away from the \ building do not have plans to force the protesters and activist out. Yet the protesters have something else to worry about besides the Us troops and the government. There is the weather issue has forced North Dakota Governor Jack Dalrymple to order the protesters to clear out immediately because of the harsh weather conditions. Which added to the information the article stated about the protesters being told to evacuate but didn’t they even opposed the harsh weather along with the government. The article ends with more information about the two sides of the story to the protest, where the pipeline will go. The pipeline is expected to stretch across four states as shown and stated in the article. Although the Morton County police department have tried to evacuate the protesters who have been gotten help and support from activist. However the police state that the protesters have not been protesting peacefully. While the protesters argue that they have been trying to get forced out of their land based on trespassing and this is unfair because the pipeline is expected to got through the Indian Reservation.

My Reaction

When I think about how strong these protesters and activist are. I think that we all can learn from them and learn from their example. These people understand what’s important. They are not just standing by and letting the pipeline happen. These protester oppose the harsh weather and the government along with the energy transfer companies and their allies. The protesters and activist have new hope everyday. Thanks to their wonderful awareness and protests. Their outstanding respect and defense for the environmental is what we should all strive to be just like.

2nd Article

My Summary

So I read this article about the money or assets behind the North Dakota Pipeline. This is actually my second article being as though I  previously made a different summary and reaction to a different article you will find that above. However, my beloved second article which is about the assets of The North Dakota Pipeline being sold. It’s called “Norway's Largest Bank Sells Assets in Dakota Access Pipeline Company.” This article tells the reader that there is great hope for the land of the sioux tribe. The article when you summed up really states that there is something else standing in the way of the completion and operation of the Dakota Pipeline. The bank in Norway the D.N.B.  does not want to be with the companies behind the Dakota Pipeline. That’s why they are considering terminating three separate loans that the bank has made for financing the pipeline these are worth millions. Even though these loans are only 10% of the pipelines construction the companies would still need to get that money from somewhere else. The article continues  with hope for the protesters and activist because the Energy transfers companies is almost certain to miss their deadline. This deadline set for january first could definitely affect their future involvement. With their employers and colleagues that they are transferring oil and gas to. If they miss the deadline then they lose the people to buy the oil and gas. A direct quote that makes it possible is "loss of shippers to the project could effectively result in project cancellation."

My Reaction

My reaction to this article is very positive. Very positive for the people that have been working so hard so that this pipeline does not happen. I understand why the bank came to their sense. When you understand what’s happening and what you're becoming apart of it reflected on your character. The bank is thinking about canceling the pipeline’s assets and that it good. That means all the hard work that the activist and protester are doing is paying off. All of the marches, and nonviolent protest are raising awareness  for the respect of the sioux tribe land. I think that the possibility that the energy transfer companies could miss their deadlines with the people that are suppose to buy the oil and gas is great. It’s great for the people who have to deal with the consequences of the oil and gas spills. Also in addition to this the animals who will be affected.

• Seeing as that a big shot foreign company just divested from DAPL, what would you like to tell the American people to do?

• I would like to tell the American people to not let History repeat itself to make sure that we all join the protesters and activist. No matter how we contribute either physical protest like our extra credit assignment or assignments like this that help bring awareness to the NDPP.

• can the American people and government create an environmentally just America?

• I believe that we could create an Environmentally just America if we took care of our planet by allowing our natural resources not be harmed because of profit. To do this we must let natural resources stay natural and not get contaminated to stop the pipelines, dumping food waste, any and everything that makes our planet environmentally unjust.

• Be specific and explain why your suggestion is helpful in creating a just society.

• My suggestions until the end was very specific on how we can make our america more environmentally just, to cut back on greenhouse gases, methane, cars, pollution, and many more examples of being environmentally unjust to our planet.

1) Describe your project. A description of my project is my dream house for this technology class.

2) What did you learn while completing this project? While completing this project i learned how i want my dream house to look, and i learned how to create it in 3-d.

3) What was the hardest part about completing this project? The hardest part of completing this project would have to be actually making more floors i think after that i was good with everything.

4) What was the most fun/exciting part? The most fun part of this project was making the house i mean it's nothing better than watching your dreams come true.

5) If you were to do this project over again, what would you do differently? If i had to do this project differently i would probably have saved all of my work and made sure that the website saved my work.

1. Describe your project
   My project is an animation based on the dancing of a young man that can really move. The boy that i chose from the scratch sprites selection was one of many that had lots of costumes. The project is what happens when a boy dances on a court and takes it over.
   
   

2. What knowledge did you already have about the project before you started?
   I had the knowledge that i wanted to create an animation using scratch. So i looked up some coding animations before hand which gave me the knowledge to create an animation using coding no matter which language, which i had also studied. I had the knowledge of different coding languages such as python which is the hardest coding language to learn.
   
   

3. What new skill did you want to learn coming into the project?
   The new skill i wanted to learn was being able to create an animation. I had no idea on how to make animations before i did my research but after this project i now can create animations. My new skill will enable me to create new and better animations and even go for the harder stuff now.
   
   
   

4. Did you accomplish the goal of learning this new skill?
   I accomplished the goal of learning this new skill because i used a animation card before, but now i can just create the animation i would like without the use of the cards. Although the cards are pretty helpful, but i still can create my own animation by myself. I can also change my backdrop and edit my sprites whenever i need to.
   
   

5. How do you know you accomplished the goal? If you didn’t accomplish your goal, why do you think that is?
   I know i accomplished my goal because i worked really hard to complete my project. I also have analyzed my new skill well enough that now i can read the coding inside of the animations. I know this skills has been accomplished because i am able to help myself understand the coding.
   
   
   

6. What other skill(s) did you learn along the way?
   The other skills i learned along the way was that i learned to find research really easily by going on certain websites and taking in the best information. This new skill will be efficient for my next project in this class because a good researcher can accomplish anything.
   
   
   

7. What are you most proud of in this project?
   I am most proud of how determined i was because even though i had to start over i still finished my entire project in the time we had left. My project itself made me proud because it is my expression of what i like to do.
   
   
   

8. What would you do differently if you had to do the project over again?

I would not do anything differently, although i might have made sure all my animations were finished before i logged out of scratch.
