Philámayaye unfortunately it is very common place out here. I grew up hearing it whenever we left the Rez to go to Rapid City for anything

Philámayaye He would. I am pretty much a pacifist but will defend myself if needed and I do carry a knife for the ones that call me squaw. My husband on the other hand is not a pacifist and doesnt take anything off people like today. Dad on the other hand was a complete pacifist, because he...

We are in a big fight with our idiot governor Noem over sovereignty. USSC ruled in the 90s that we have exclusive sovereignty of roads on Rez boundaries and local, state and federal have no say in how we control them. Noem seems to have reading comprehension issues on this despite the state...

If any one is going to Sturgis, make sure your route does not take you thru a Rez. We are having severe outbreaks of the virus and all the Rez in SD have armed and manned check points to not allow any through traffic. Couple of Bandidos got their rears handed to them by my husband and another...

As a lady, I can tell you that @PSUTE recently talked me out of leaving due to photo being posted that would be more appropriate to a soft porn site. Ladies do not generally enjoy opening up threads with photos that do nothing more than objectify and in some cases, degrade women. It simply is...

Dad sang this to Mom during her last months with us

and some wonder why female members leave here. It has been nice, but this not what I come to this site for. Everyone take care of themselves... Mitákuye Oyás'iŋ In the Spirit of My Parents and Amira Gentle Horse

1- Family and Faith 2 - not enough time with Mom and Dad, not being able to help Amira 3- to change anything would mean changing potentially every outcome in life to date, so nothing

Think of the jail from the Andy Griffith Show. That is basically what the Custer Co. jail is. After having worked and lived in the refugee camps in Syria the last 1/2 yr or so, this was pretty easy. It was just a bunch of us AIM Indians from Pine Ridge, Standing Rock and Rosebud Rezes in there...

Hope everyone had a safe one. Husband, daughter and I spent ours in the Custer County Jail for protesting on the 3rd. Anyone in AIM regalia were arrested, whether peacefully protesting or not. And no, the protests were not specifically due to Trump's visit. We protest every year around the 4th...

When later asked about Yellow Hair's demise at the battle at little bighorn, Red Cloud replied, " payback is a bitch", thus coining a term still used today

I will take you into the Inipi with me in the morning for healing prayers and ask Creator to watch over you and your family. And I will ask Dad and Mom to give prayers for you and yours when I have my morning talk with them at Wounded Kneed Creek Mitákuye Oyás'iŋ

Couple of our big boys. They only hang with the herd during rutting season in the fall. They are both 12yrs old and weigh in around 2100 lbs each

It has to be thru unconditional love that Creator wishes of us. That can only be the right way. Philámayaye for keeping Dad with you in your thoughts.

This is just one of many reasons Dad respected you so much...

Dad was very fond of you as a true friend that he knew he could count on. Know that you always had his upmost respect.

Philámayaye It does not matter whether we help someone in our neighborhood, in a local prison, homeless shelter, Big Brother or Big Sister program, or any other charity or just in our own way. The only thing that matters is that we reach out with our hearts and souls to help others, whether on...

I told Dad the morning after I read this when I go and talk with him and Mom at Wounded Knee creek . I believe he is looking down and smiling and knows you are a good person and good friend.

From Dad - We dont have to be extraordinary, just giving. And his prayer Un Wa chuntay oh gna kay.(be generous with your heart) Oun she la.(show compassion) Un Iglu Hukul. (be humble) Yuoniha Wakan Takan.(honor Creator)

Philámayaye everyone for the kind words. I do want to say how proud I am of my husband and daughter for not only keeping the ranch going, but for making the decision to slaughter over 50 buffalo and get the meat to the elders and needy families during this pandemic not only here at Pine Ridge...
