Wild rice is the lead plaintiff in a new lawsuit aimed at halting construction of Enbridge's Line 3 oil pipeline replacement. "Wild rice is the most important spiritual, central part of our culture. Wild rice feeds us. Wild rice tells us when there's something wrong in the water or in the air or in the ground. "As a matter of fact, Enbridge pipelines have coexisted with Minnesota's most sacred and productive wild rice stands for over seven decades."
