Abstract

Women’s and environmental issues have been a continuous discussion among the researchers. Both women and nature are getting unfair treatment. This issue is also faced by the Native American tribe, especially Sioux women. Women from the Sioux tribe often get unfair treatment in their environment. This aligns with the oppression of their nature. This situation has led Sioux women to want to protect and preserve their environment by taking several appropriate actions.
In conducting this research, the researcher used a movie entitled “Dances with Wolves” as the research object, which was analyzed using a qualitative descriptive method. The data was collected through two steps: the main data taken from a scene in the movie "Dances with Wolves" and supporting data taken from websites, journals, and theses on the internet. The data was analyzed using ecofeminist theory to analyze the role of Sioux women in preserving and protecting their nature. Additionally, the researcher also used Rolland Barthes' semiotics theory to analyze the meaning of cultural symbols reflecting the preservation embodied by Sioux women.
The results of this research show that there are two roles of Sioux women in preserving the environment. These roles are reflected in the daily activities of the Sioux community, such as the role of women in utilizing natural resources, the role of women in giving education, and the role of Sioux women in protecting the environment, which is depicted through resistance against the Pawnee tribe. The preservation efforts of women are also reflected through the several cultural symbols found in the movie "Dance with Wolves." These symbols include bison, teepee, clothing, and jewelry.
