Dakota Access Pipeline: Iowa’s struggle

The stories and the video of the Standing Rock Sioux and others gathered to defend their ground and their water against the Dakota Access Pipeline have finally reached the national stage. But for months, a very similar struggle has been fought and continues to be fought by landowners and activists in Iowa who are also being affected by the pipeline. This edition of Sprouts will tell that story, with audio gathered by Pacifica affiliate KHOI in Ames, Iowa.
