LSA Statement regarding Richard Marshall

Statement Regarding Richard Marshall’s Motion to Quash a Subpoena in the trial of John Graham: What is the truth? South Dakota justice system seeks lies as truth in Indian country. November 30, 2010 - What becomes of a country when it’s indigenous people are being taught that, in a foreign court of law, lying under oath is a truthful lie and that truthful lie will set you free? Back in the 1970s when Sovereignty was an idea of the red power movement, Indians were just beginning to examine corruption in their tribal governments. Today, Sovereignty means something different. Today we see that Sovereignty banner in every gaming compact negotiation where tribal leaders plead to states for more slot machines, while the racist state bargains for more jurisdiction in Indian Country, keeping in mind the states goal of gaining more Indian lands. In 1973, Richard Marshall was one of those early Sovereignty rights advocates as he traveled with leaders like Pedro Bissonette. In Apr...

LSA History: Mt. Rushmore Gathering 1996 & LSA Statement

Students Gather at Mt. Rushmore Effort Made to explain land struggle by Karen Testerman Indian Country Today. Feb. 29, 1996. B-1. He Sapa: Not For Sale 2.29.96 BLACK HILLS, SD - Wanting to educate visitors on the struggles of the Lakota people, Lakota students recently gathered at Mount Rushmore. The Lakota Student Alliance organized a public assembly at Mount Rushmore to coincide with an MTV filming of a performance by rock band The Presidents of the United States of America, which aired nationally President's Day.

Remembering Trailman Gray Buffalo (Richard Quinn)

In memory of Rick Trailman Gray Buffalo Today, October 26, 2010, our people will be burying a warrior of the 20 th and 21 st century, in the sacred Black Hills. That warrior is Rick Trailman Gray Buffalo. 48,273,000 acres ago we were a unified nation of peoples. The Ft Laramie Treaty of 1851 & 68 declared those 48 million acres to be Great Sioux Reservation territory. However, in the past several decades we have had to occupy those lands to remind the empire that we will continue to sacrifice ourselves so that our future generations will remember they are united as Lakota. Trailman was among those who offered to sacrifice to return to those 48 million acres. The Lakota Student Alliance would like to respectfully remember Rick “Trailman” Gray Buffalo. Trailman was given the name at Wounded Knee in 1973. On March 22, 1999, there was no strategic plan to occupy Laframbois Island in Pierre. There was no strategic meeting announced among our people.
