Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The protests at Standing Rock aimed to prevent the destruction of historic and sacred sites for North American indigenous peoples. These protests triggered a series of adjacent movements that sought protection not only for indigenous rights, but addressed themes such as religion, historical protection of a country, suppression of cultures, imperialism, among others.

These movements show that when a right is suppressed, a series of social elements are hurt and questioned.
