NARRATOR: As he struggled to his feet Cliff heard the posse coming and he knew he must make a trap. He saw a pile of boulders up the hill. He quickly grabbed a large branch and scrambled up the slope to dislodge the stones down upon his pursuers. But the posse caught sight of what he was doing and opened fire. As he tried to hide from the gunfire behind the rocks, he noticed a chain across those boulders, holding them up. With last bullet left in the sheriff’s gun he fired and hit the chain square on. It just richoced off that’s all and he knew he was done for!
Just then the whole ground came out from under him. It was rock slide, a giant avalanche of shale and stone that had been pent up for years and years. And as he crashed down along with it.... he and a horse were all that survived.
Now, in any good western this would be an almost tidy ending. Cliff would take the horse and go back to town, have a showdown with the sheriff in the street, and likely win. But that’s not what happened here.
On the night she was murdered, Agnes Stone, had a fishy feeling in her stomach when she was called back to the town jail. So she had put on a body camera connected to a server. That video is what took down the sheriff.
As far for the pipeline... it wasn’t going to be a few dead dead bodies, some corruption, or even a disaster to stop a company like stop gas corps.
No, what stopped it was community coming together, NOT violence. Local tribes along with many others from around the region stopped this pipeline with a combination of legal efforts and non-violent direct action as well as some help from the great-grandaughter of Oregon’s most famous governor. Yes, Governor Tammy McCall gets some credit for putting and end to it, as well.

And, Cliff West also played a part. He took it pretty hard especially after seeing Agnes, his fiance, killed right in front of him and also being responsible for the killing of his old friends the spencer brothers. He was drinking even more now and having nightmares every night. But one night he had a vision so clear it was like reality.
As he was falling he saw the shadow of a large bird come down and grab him up by the talons. It flew him across the fields and over to his property and dropped him down in the crick. As he sunk to the bottom he looked up. He saw seasons pass quickly and he realized he must be going back in time when he heard his uncle play the song “this land is your land” and from there he saw his grandparents and great-grandparents, he saw the US calvary and the volunteers who had fought during the Rogue indian wars. And from there he saw generation after generation after hundreds of generations of people who had been on this land. And he turned into a warm stone at the bottom of the crick. When he awoke, he realized what he needed to do. The many things that he needed to do! (Eagle Sound effect)

DAN Now this next song was inspired by the Standing Rock Sioux and the water protectors. It’s called Your Land. And there’s some opportunities to sing along.

SONG- Your Land:
You claim it's your land
But you don't own the air
You don't own the water
But you don't own the air
You don't own the water

You claim it's your land
But you don't own the sun
you don't own the daughter
you don't own the sun
you don't own the daughter

You want to take and wreck this land
Then this you've got to understand
We know just what you want to do
We're gonna stand in front of you

We're gonna stand, we're gonna stand
In front of you.

They say it's our land
But we don't own the air
We don't own the water
We don't own the air
We don't own the water

They say it's our land
But we don't own the air
We don't own the sun
We don't own the daughter
We don't own the daughter

We want to keep and heal this land
Then this we gotta understand
It’s the most important thing we do
And to the people we’ll be true

To the people for the people well we must be true
