Lakota Lands Recovery Project

Produced by http://www.villageearth.org/llrp/

Short video presentation on the liquidation of Native American lands in the United States, specifically examining the history of the Oglala Lakota who now reside on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Produced by Village Earth's Lakota Lands Recovery Project which is working with Lakota families to reclaim, utilize and protect their remaining land base on Pine Ridge.

To address these issues Village Earth is working to help Lakota families reclaim and consolidate their legally allotted lands from the BIA leasing system and access the resources needed to live on, protect, and utilize it, helping to return the balance between economy, ecology, and culture.

Just give them their land back. It's theirs. Give it back. I hope they get it back and are able to prosper. Please love and respect.

This is despicable! Our people know best how to use Mother Earth to benefit everyone.
