So a white run company can ignore federal law.

"Hidden America: Children of the Plains"
I just saw the promo for this at the gym last night. I'll give ABC credit for spending four seasons filming this:

I'm glad ABC News and Yahoo! have gone to Pine Ridge
[QUOTE=Corkey;437137]http://news.yahoo.com/reservation-ch...161715245.html
Great article, Corkey. Thank you. "Pine Ridge residents live amid poverty that rivals that of the third world. Forty-seven percent of the Pine Ridge population lives below the federal poverty level, 65 percent to 80 percent of the adults are unemployed, and rampant alcoholism and an obesity epidemic combine with underfunded schools to make it a rough place to grow up. Tashina lives in government housing in Manderson, 30 minutes north of downtown Pine Ridge. She lives with her grandmother, parents, siblings and uncles – sometimes up to 19 people live in the three-bedroom house, which has seen better days." I know other folks in permaculture who have volunteered at Pine Ridge. I wanted to join a project this past summer but had to teach. The permies are working with the Oglala Lakota Sioux to set up green energy, water and soil/farm projects and create some sustainable structures. |

The children made me cry, gave me hope, and are so strong.
I hope I can vote one day for Robert Two Looks, such a wise warrior already.

Oglala Lakota Sioux - Pine Ridge Reservation
[QUOTE=Corkey;437679]http://abcnews.go.com/US/organizatio...ry?id=14729358
Excellent list of schools and non profits at Pine Ridge Reservation for donations and contact. If anyone wants to do a permaculture or green building apprenticeship or donate to sustainability projects at Pine Ridge, here's a link to more information: http://www.permacultureguild.us/appr...at-pine-ridge/ |
