“This collection sets the bar high for what collaborative frontline literature can be.” —Mark Tilsen, Oglala Lakota Poet Educator and author of It Ain't Over Until We're Smoking Cigars On The Drill Pad ""A stunning assemblage of voices and visions, Even the River Starts Small perfectly mirrors the sacred beauty of this self-organized struggle against resource extraction: it takes an ecosystem to defend life. This volume, overflowing with the art of remembrance and resistance, makes crystal clear—tenderly, lovingly, as a gift—that it takes innumerable “molecules” to make up the waters of other possible worlds."" —Cindy Barukh Milstein, author of Try Anarchism for Life

Author Information

The Line 3 Storytelling Anthology Team is a small group of young people who have resisted pipeline construction in Minnesota in various capacities for many years. In the fall of 2021, the volunteer team began to gather diverse stories from the movement to stop Line 3 and honor the years of resistance. They collaborated to independently publish the first edition of the book as a free gift to people who had been involved in the resistance. During the movement to stop Line 3, members of the Anthology Team held numerous roles, from participating in the years-long public regulatory process to supporting dozens of direct actions to halt construction, from coordinating training and vetting infrastructure for the frontlines to screen-printing thousands of patches, shirts, and bandanas. Others participated in the legal support network, a grassroots media collective, and the global movement to defund Line 3 and the fossil fuel industry. Today they are librarians and booksellers, artists, journalists, childcare providers, and community organizers within the climate justice movement, the labor movement, mutual aid networks, and so much more, all based in South Minneapolis in a beautiful community of resistance.
