9-7-2016: Bismarck Water Ceremony & Missouri River Canoe Launch (NEEDS LABELS)

9/7/16:  Water Protectors from all over the world gather for a 2 day paddle to Sacred Stone Camp from Bismarck, many in traditional canoes.  Water Protectors also share their reasons for journeying so far to “Stand with Standing Rock”.  Pre-launch, the protectors performed a Water Ceremony, pouring the waters of their homelands into the mighty Missouri River.
