WATER WARS
about WATER WARS
The American West is drying up and the crisis didn’t start with climate change. It started with a lie. The treaties were broken. The rivers were broken. Now, the artificial system built on that theft is beginning to break too.
But something remarkable is happening.
On the Klamath in California. On the Missouri in the Dakotas. On the Mississippi in Minnesota. Indigenous-led movements are rising up to reclaim what was never surrendered and in doing so, they show us a way through the crisis ahead.

WATER WARS tells the full story: 170 years of history, the mounting pressures of drought and climate change, and the Indigenous uprisings that are rewriting the future of water in America.
This is not a story you’ll see on the evening news. It’s a story that will change how you see our water, our landscape, and our country.
