As a Native American former resident of North Dakota, I want to compliment Herald columnist Lloyd Omdahl for writing a most exemplary and accurate overview of the pipeline controversy ("The protest is about more than a pipeline," Page A4, Sept. 19).
How I wish more non-Native people could examine their biased perspectives on this disastrous problem.
I was in my home state recently during the peaceful protest, and I saw the racism being promoted even by the biased media and by the governor's unethical actions. I am quite disappointed in Gov. Jack Dalrymple's behavior.
