#Oglala President Bans #ICE and U.S. Border Patrol from #OglalaLakota Nation, #PineRidge, South Dakota

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, January 28, 2026

"Oglala Lakota President #FrankStarComesOut issued a Presidential Proclamation today banning both ICE and the U.S. Border Patrol from the Oglala Lakota Nation. The #OglalaSioux Tribal Council banned ICE, and rejected an agreement to work with immigration officials, on January 21.

"President Star Comes Out points out in the Proclamation today that the U.S. Border Patrol is working with ICE in its 'unlawful conduct against Native people in #Minneapolis' -- which is within the Aboriginal Territory of the Great Sioux Nation.

"Calling it 'egregious conduct,' the President's Proclamation states that ICE and the U.S. Border Patrol are targeting minorities throughout the United States, and Native people are being detained and injured, in violation of Treaties and civil rights."

#OglalaLakota Nation Bans #ICE, Rejects #ImmigrationAgreement

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 23, 2026

Excerpt: "The Oglala Sioux Tribe unanimously banned ICE from #PineRidge and rejected a federal immigration agreement, during a special session of the #OglalaSioux Tribal Council on Jan. 21, 2026.

"Upholding their #sovereignty, the Oglala Tribal Council confirmed that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement asked the Tribe to enter into Section 287(g), a federal agreement that would have allowed tribal law enforcement to act as immigration agents for ICE.

"The Tribal Council formally rejected any Section 287(g) agreement and voted to ban all ICE agents and activities from Pine Ridge.

"The Council resolution also states there is to be nation-to-nation consultation with the Interior Secretary, as required by federal law, concerning any detained Oglala Lakota.

"During the live broadcast, Council members said Lakota are being intensely harassed in #DenverCO, and #SiouxFallsSD."

#OglalaLakota President Refuses #ICE Manipulation and Deal -- as Three #Lakota Remain #Disappeared at #FortSnelling

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 15, 2026

MINNEAPOLIS -- "ICE's violence continued on Wednesday night with another #ICEShooting. Three #Lakotas arrested by ICE remain disappeared at Fort Snelling, the long time site of the genocide of #Dakota people.

"In the search for the three disappeared Lakotas, Oglala Lakota President #FrankStarComesOut says he refuses to cut a deal with ICE, which ICE is demanding to release more information.

"Meanwhile, a whistleblower has leaked the secret ICE operations underway -- including the targeting of #activists, recruiting informants in jail, and 'Operation A' exploiting migrants for intelligence.

"Both the #TohonoOodham Nation government, and #Navajo President #BuuNygren, play roles by recruiting and promoting ICE agents."

#ICE Murdered Legal Observer in #Minneapolis -- Now Detaining Four #OglalaLakota in Migrant Sweeps

""There are 8,000 Red Lake residents currently living in the Twin Cities in the immediate neighborhoods where ICE is presently terrorizing residents," the #RedLakeNation said, expressing deep concern that #Ojibwe, known as #Chippewa and #Anishinaabe, will be abused."

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 8, 2026

"Oglala President #FrankStarComesOut said, 'I have been made aware that #ICE (Department of Homeland Security) has detained four of our tribal members in #Minneapolis,' Star Comes Out said late today.

" 'The four men are homeless and were living under the bridge near the #LittleEarth housing project. A bystander (also an #OglalaSioux Tribal Member) was able to get the information out of them that they are members of the Oglala Sioux Tribe but did not get names."

"The Oglala Lakota Nation in #PineRidge, South Dakota, issued a statement for Oglala to identify themselves as U.S. citizens and advised them to make this statement: 'Because I am both a tribal citizen and U.S. citizen, ICE has no lawful authority to detain me.'

"President Frank Star Comes Out pointed out that the Treaties affirm a nation-to-nation relationship with the United States, and advised Oglala not to speak without an attorney present.

"Oglala Sioux Tribal attorneys are reaching out to Minnesota Lt. Gov. #PeggyFlanagan about where the four Lakotas are being detained and what their names are. The Tribal Council and executive officers have also been informed, he said."

Organic reach: #FoodSovereignty moves to the web

#ColonialContact brought foreign food and disease to tribal nations. Now, a digital generation is reconnecting with tradition.

by Kim Baca April 18, 2018

Excerpt: "When Native Americans were forced to assimilate — confined to reservations and placed in Indian boarding schools — traditional food preparation waned, forgotten in a world of processed foods and modern cooking conveniences. But [#MariahGladstone], who shops at the grocery store, hunts or receives food from family and friends, wants to show how easy, affordable and tasty Indigenous cooking can be. Her recipe for salmon cornmeal cakes, which takes just five steps and five ingredients, appears in a how-to video on her 'Indigikitchen' (Indigenous kitchen) Facebook page, which has more than 1,400 followers.

" 'There is also a lot of interest from Native communities across the country to revitalize their Native foods, not only for the health benefit but for the connection to our ancestors and to recognize our identities as Native people,' she said.

"Some Indigenous chefs are incorporating traditional foods in anti-Thanksgiving pop-up dinners, cooking without any dairy, processed flour or sugar, all ingredients introduced after European contact. This excludes #frybread, often considered a traditional Native food enjoyed at powwows and other Indigenous events. Few realize that frybread was created by Navajos in 1864, during their forced removal, when they had little to eat other than U.S. government rations of white flour, sugar and lard.

"But 'pre-Contact' cooking is more than a foodie trend for people like 13-year-old Maizie White, an #AkwesasneMohawk seventh-grader who writes about Indigenous food and shares recipes on her blog, NativeHearth.com. Her recipes include avocado hominy salsa, spiced squash waffles, wild rice stuffed squash and venison roast and gravy.

" 'It helps #IndigenousFarmers and local people who are growing the food to make a living,' said White, who was invited by #SeanSherman, an #OglalaLakota also known as '#TheSiouxChef,' to cook at the renowned James Beard House in New York City. 'We’re giving back to our community and it is much more healthier and much more economical to cook. It also brings us back to what was here beforehand and respect what was already here.' "

by Kim Baca April 18, 2018

Excerpt: "When Native Americans were forced to assimilate — confined to reservations and placed in Indian boarding schools — traditional food preparation waned, forgotten in a world of processed foods and modern cooking conveniences. But [#MariahGladstone], who shops at the grocery store, hunts or receives food from family and friends, wants to show how easy, affordable and tasty Indigenous cooking can be. Her recipe for salmon cornmeal cakes, which takes just five steps and five ingredients, appears in a how-to video on her 'Indigikitchen' (Indigenous kitchen) Facebook page, which has more than 1,400 followers.

" 'There is also a lot of interest from Native communities across the country to revitalize their Native foods, not only for the health benefit but for the connection to our ancestors and to recognize our identities as Native people,' she said.

"Some Indigenous chefs are incorporating traditional foods in anti-Thanksgiving pop-up dinners, cooking without any dairy, processed flour or sugar, all ingredients introduced after European contact. This excludes #frybread, often considered a traditional Native food enjoyed at powwows and other Indigenous events. Few realize that frybread was created by Navajos in 1864, during their forced removal, when they had little to eat other than U.S. government rations of white flour, sugar and lard.

"But 'pre-Contact' cooking is more than a foodie trend for people like 13-year-old Maizie White, an #AkwesasneMohawk seventh-grader who writes about Indigenous food and shares recipes on her blog, NativeHearth.com. Her recipes include avocado hominy salsa, spiced squash waffles, wild rice stuffed squash and venison roast and gravy.

" 'It helps #IndigenousFarmers and local people who are growing the food to make a living,' said White, who was invited by #SeanSherman, an #OglalaLakota also known as '#TheSiouxChef,' to cook at the renowned James Beard House in New York City. 'We’re giving back to our community and it is much more healthier and much more economical to cook. It also brings us back to what was here beforehand and respect what was already here.' "

TY @WesternWatershedsProject for sharing this! I had the honor of interviewing #ChiefArvolLookingHorse back in the 1990s after Miracle, the first White Buffalo Calf, was born. We are indeed at the crossroads!

#NativeAmericans see omen in Yellowstone's rare white bison

The white bison calf

by Max Matza and Madeline Halpert
BBC News

13 June 2024

"An incredibly rare white bison calf has been photographed in #YellowstoneNationalPark, exciting Native American tribes who view it as a religious sign heralding #MajorChange.

"It was spotted in the Lamar Valley area, and is the first white bison to be born in the last #WildHerd in the US, according to modern records.

"Other recent white bison births have happened in captivity and from parents that contained cow DNA. Tribes consider a wild birth more religiously significant.

"Montana photographer Erin Braaten took photos of the young buffalo in the Lamar Valley on 4 June while visiting the park with three of her eight children.

"Stuck in traffic caused by a slow-moving herd, she noticed the young calf across a river, nearly 100 metres (330ft) away, and initially mistook it for a coyote because of its sandy light colour.

"'There were so many different thoughts and emotions,' Braaten told the BBC.

"'It was so amazing. I thought I'd have a better chance of capturing Bigfoot than a white bison calf.'

"The birth of a white buffalo is a sacred event for many Native tribes of the #GreatPlains, including the #Lakota people, who believe that it relates to a time around 2,000 years ago when food was scarce and the bison were rarely seen.

"The Lakota legend tells of a beautiful woman who appeared and delivered the gifts of a #SacredPipeAndBundle to the people.

"The woman told them she would return to restore harmony in a troubled world, and then rolled on the ground four times, changing colour each time before becoming a white buffalo calf.

"Her departure led the bison to return, and white buffalos are now seen as a sign that prayers are being heard and that change is coming.

"The white buffalo woman is considered the central prophet in the theology of many tribes including the #Sioux, #Cherokee, #Comanche and #Navajo.

"Her story is often likened to that of Jesus in Christianity.

"Simon Moya-Smith, an #OglalaLakota writer who was also raised on the white buffalo woman's story, told the BBC that tradition says the arrival of a white calf is seen as both a 'blessing and a warning'."

'#SpacesOfException' #Resistance to the #FatTakers, from #NativeLands to #Palestine

"We might be the ones holding the knife -- but it is the state that is the one who is still killing us." Those are the words of #KleeBenally, in 'Spaces of Exception.'

by Brenda Norrell #CensoredNews
February 21, 2024

"In the Navajo language, there is no word for relocation, it means to disappear and never be seen again."

The film, 'Spaces of Exception,' now being shown around the world, begins on #PineRidge, with the history of the resistance to the 'fat takers,' and travels to the refugee camps of Palestine, before arriving at the land of #AkwesasneMohawk, and the words shared of true sovereignty.

"Then, there are the images of the #OilAndGas, the #fracking, and #coal mining on the #NavajoNation, where #Dine' say the true literacy once known, talking with the #NaturalWorld, is being lost. Now, there is the destruction of the burial and sacred places, as #asthma takes over lives.

"On #BlackMesa, before he passed, Klee championed his relatives resisting forced relocation brought by #PeabodyCoal.

"'Their greatest form of resistance is being who they are' 'The autonomy that we have is here.'"

"'Places of Exception,' begins with scenes from #WoundedKnee 1973, and Palestine refugee camps, and the words, 'Places defined by their historical and spiritual resistance.'

"'The buffalo owns us, we don't own the buffalo,' says #AlexWhitePlume, #OglalaLakota on Pine Ridge, sharing the importance of language, and the stories carried by the words, and the impacts of #genocide.

"'The buffalo shares the same story we share.'

"The film series, 'The Native and the Refugee' began on Pine Ridge with, 'We Love Being Lakota.' The latest film, 'Spaces of Exception,' concludes with the image of the flags at #OcetiSakowin #WaterProtectors Camp on #StandingRock.

"Among those in the series of films are #DebraWhitePlume, who talks about the 'Fat Takers,' and #OlowanSaraMartinez, Oglala Lakota of Pine Ridge, South Dakota, now in the Spirit World. Their bold stance as defenders of the water and people was manifest at the #RedWarriorCamp at Standing Rock, during the resistance to the #DakotaAccessPipeline in North Dakota.

"Spaces of Exception comes out of the long-term multimedia project 'The Native and the Refugee', profiling Native lands in the United States alongside #Palestinian refugee camps, and is directed by #MattPeterson and #MalekRasamny."

Native Americans seized #WoundedKnee 50 years ago. Here's what 1 reporter remembers

by Rachel Treisman, February 27, 2023

"It's been exactly 50 years since hundreds of #NativeAmerican activists seized the #SouthDakota town of Wounded Knee, kicking off a monthslong occupation that helped galvanize the movement for #IndigenousRights across the U.S.

"On Feb. 27, 1973, some 200 members of the #OglalaLakota tribe, led by members of #AmericanIndianMovement (AIM), occupied the #PineRidge Reservation village — which was also the site of the 1890 massacre in which federal troops killed as many as 300 #Lakota men, women and children.

"The activists set out to protest #corruption in tribal #leadership and highlight the U.S. government's failure to honor Native treaties. They went on to hold the town for 71 days, in what the U.S. Marshals Service calls the 'longest civil disorder' in its history."
