Question

This substance was the chief plaintiff of a 2021 lawsuit against a state’s Department of Natural Resources which argued that the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline violated this substance’s “inherent rights to exist.” A resolution by the White (-5[1])Earth Band established basic rights (15[1])for this food whose cultural significance is related alongside recipes (15[1])for it in the first chapter of Heid E. Erdrich’s Original Local. This food is traditionally danced on in a “jigging pit,” and is harvested by (*) knockers. (-5[1])Also called “the good berry,” this food is referenced in the oral history of the Anishinaabeg, who were told to move (10[1])west (-5[1])until they found a place where “food grows on water.” This is the state grain of Minnesota, (10[1])where it is harvested from around the state’s lakes. For 10 points, name this grain that, despite its name, is not directly related to its “domesticated” (-5[1])counterpart Oryza. (10[2])■END■ (10[2]0[1])
