Rocky Votolato - Little Charger

subscriber exclusive

about

I wrote this song about what’s happening in Standing Rock and the fight to protect the water there from the ignorance and destructive greed of the Fossil Fuel Industry. On July 15th, 2016 Jasilyn Charger and a group of 29 other teenagers from the Lakota Sioux set out on a 2000 mile relay run from Standing Rock all the way to Washington D.C. to bring attention to the Dakota Access Pipeline threatening their sacred lands and water supply. This bold brave action has galvanized a worldwide movement and it has been incredibly inspiring to watch. I see Standing Rock and places like it all around the globe as the front lines of the fight to stop the oncoming devastation of Climate Change.

What Donald Trump and the other misguided individuals in the US government don’t realize is that the sleeping giant of the American conscience is waking up and a fierce resistance to their backwards policies has only just begun. I hope everyone who calls themselves an American will stand up to this absolute lunacy in any way they can: by calling Senators, posting on Social Media, donating to the water protectors at Standing Rock, and by taking to the streets to protect what’s left of our democracy and our natural world. We must all work towards a livable future for the generations that will inherit the earth. Thanks for your support and for continuing to stand up for climate justice!

Much love,
Xx
Rocky
