Not that he can do anything that will make a difference. But it would shame the regime, garner tremendous international attention. Just show up and show solidarity. There are a lot of stands he can make. This, I think, is a good one.

He made the Gasland documentaries.

Also: Standing Rock Dakota Access Opposition (a Facebook group) shares many livestreams.

I am local but I won't turn on the local news. Too biased.
