One Native American tribe is giving a modern spin to the traditional dreamcatcher, using razor-sharp
One Native American tribe is giving a modern spin to the traditional dreamcatcher, using razor-sharp wire to highlight the struggle and resilience of Indigenous communities fighting the Dakota Access Pipeline.。
The Pueblo Tribe, which set up camp at Standing Rock in August 2016, started making dreamcatchers with barbed wire that was previously used against water protectors. Now they're selling the jarring creations to help fund the camp's needs.。

The canoes, used by the Pueblo Camp for water rescues during clashes with DAPL workers, were reportedly stolen during the night by security and brought to their base across the river. 。
Brennon Nastacio, leader of the Pueblo Camp, tells。 Brennon Nastacio, leader of the Pueblo Camp, tells。 Mashable。
that security personnel wrapped the boats in barbed wire. When he and other water protectors retrieved the canoes, they also dragged the barbed wire across the river to prevent anyone from getting hurt. 。
"We figured we would take something that was negative and meant to hurt us, and turn it into something positive."。
The camp, he explains, quickly thought up the idea of Dakota dreamcatchers as a way to repurpose the wire.。
"We figured we would take something that was negative and meant to hurt us, and turn it into something positive," Nastacio says. 。
Activist Samantha Magdaleno, who is a board member at the nonprofit One Michigan for Immigrant Rights and the director of community organizing at the Detroit Hispanic Development Corporation, went to Standing Rock in solidarity with Indigenous communities. She connected with the Pueblo Camp early on, and helped them develop the dreamcatcher project. 。

While the dreamcatchers include other components, like turkey feathers and deer hide left over from hunting to feed people at the camp, the barbed wire is the main feature -- a tangible reminder of what water protectors face.。
"This is what they are using on us," Magdaleno says. "When you get this dreamcatcher in the mail and you touch it, it's sharp. It can hurt you."。

The dreamcatchers cost $30-$60, depending on the size, and proceeds directly fund the needs of the 10 Pueblo Tribe members staying at Standing Rock. Nastacio says they'll use the money to buy necessities for the camp, such as winter clothing, toiletries, minutes for phones and portable chargers.。
The dreamcatchers also allow water protectors to practice self-care throughout the intense resistance at Standing Rock.。
"A lot of us were really stressed out from being on the frontlines -- just the emotional toll," Magdaleno says. "This art was just something to relieve ourselves." 。
"We are quickly running out of wire -- but I'm not about to send someone up the hill to grab more," Nastacio says.。
