  6. Some background about #PeSla

    Pe’ Sla Controversial Drilling Project

    GABRIELLE NELSON, March 25, 2026

    Excerpt: "The decision memo doesn’t mention Pe’ Sla. Gubble says in the memo, 'There are no known Native American or Alaska Native religious or cultural sites within the project area.' The USDA spokesperson told #BuffalosFire in an email, 'No activities are planned on Tribal trust lands, including Pe’ Sla.'

    "The #BlackHills #CleanWaterAlliance says otherwise. The map provided by #PeteLien & Sons shows the project’s drilling sites outside of Pe’ Sla boundaries, which were agreed upon in a Memorandum of Understanding between the Forest Service and tribes in 2024. But a map of the proposed drilling operations made by the alliance using coordinates provided by Pete Lien & Sons shows one site within those boundaries.

    "Plus, the alliance says the actual area that needs to be protected from #drilling operations, which includes #noise, lights and traffic (usually 24 hours a day), should be larger. The alliance shows a two-mile buffer on its map. Most drilling sites are within that buffer zone. Yet, the alliance emphasized it is opposed to all drilling in the Black Hills, even outside this two-mile buffer.

    "Protected Indian trust land also lies within the Pe’ Sla boundaries. In 2012, four #Sioux tribes — #Rosebud, #CrowCreek, #ShakopeeMdewakanton and #StandingRock — raised $9 million to purchase nearly 2,000 acres of Pe’ Sla. In 2016, the Bureau of Indian Affairs placed that land (plus 200 acres) into federal Indian trust status to protect the land from development.

    " 'They recognized that due to the unique cultural significance of the Pe’ Sla area that this situation was different, that this is a special place,' said Gunhammer. 'But now, unfortunately, the Forest Service, Black Hills National Forest, has managed to look past all of this very, very well documented history.'

    "Lilias Jarding, executive director of the Black Hills Clean Water Alliance, told Buffalo’s Fire that the project is 'obviously not OK' because of its proximity to Pe’ Sla. She said the Forest Service ignored this when they approved the project without an environmental assessment."

  17. Oglala #Sioux Tribe continues search for members arrested by #ICE in #Minneapolis.

    https://bringmethenews.com/minnesota-news/oglala-sioux-tribe-continues-search-for-members-believed-to-be-in-ice-custody

    Tribal officials were unable to locate three missing men in the Whipple Federal Building on Thursday.

  18. The president of #Oglala #Sioux Tribe in South Dakota on Tuesday called for the #immediate #release of tribal members who were detained at a homeless encampment by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Minnesota last week.
    “The Oglala Sioux Tribe’s memorandum makes clear that ⭐️‘tribal citizens are not aliens’ and are ♦️‘categorically outside immigration jurisdiction,’”
    President Star Comes Out said.
    “Enrolled tribal members are citizens of the United States by statute
    and citizens of the Oglala Sioux Nation by treaty.”

    Three of the four Oglala Sioux Tribe members who were arrested in Minneapolis on Friday have been transferred to an ICE facility at Fort Snelling,
    President Frank Star Comes Out said in a statement released with a memorandum sent to federal immigration authorities.

  19. Oglala Tribe sends notice to federal officials

    https://www.keloland.com/news/local-news/oglala-tribe-sends-notice-to-federal-officials/

    The president of the Oglala #Sioux Tribe, based in #SouthDakota, has notified federal officials they must follow treaties and acts that apply to tribe or be subject to legal remedies.
    “The irony is not lost on us,” tribal president Frank Star Comes Out said in the news release. “Lakota citizens who are reported to be held at Fort Snelling– a site forever tied to the Dakota 38+– underscores why treaty obligations and federal accountability matter today, not just in history.”

  20. Status of four #NativeAmericans detained by #ICE in #Minneapolis still unknown, officials say

    https://www.inforum.com/news/minnesota/status-of-four-native-americans-detained-by-ice-in-minneapolis-still-unknown-officials-say

    "The #BlackfeetNation brought in a load of produce from the #YakamaNation, and #FortPeck announced buffalo distribution. #GilaRiver is giving tribal members $1,000 in hardship funds, as the government shut-down continues.

    "Blackfeet Tribal Council Member Mike Comes At Night brought in a load of produce from the Yakama Nation in Washington State for the Blackfeet Nation in Montana. 'We made it home safely from the Yakama Nation with a generous load of produce for the Blackfeet People. I am honored, as a Councilman, to serve our people. I’ve traveled hundreds of miles to help
    bring food home, and at the end of the day, I know I am doing my job. I also want to thank all the farmers who helped us with this food — may the Creator bless them and their families," Comes at
    Night said.

    "#FortPeck's #Assiniboine and #Sioux Tribes are distributing buffalo meat, and gathering groceries, after declaring a state of emergency in Montana.

    "In California, the #Yurok Tribal Council approved $300 food assistance cards for Yurok because of the disruptions in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program #SNAP, and #CalFresh benefits, due to the federal government shutdown.
    'Our goal is to help our most vulnerable citizens get through this challenging time,' said Yurok Chairman Joseph L. James, who said the tribe is working to mitigate the hardships on families from
    the federal shutdown.

    "In #Tahlequah, Oklahoma, the #CherokeeNation announced a $6.5 million response package. This includes cash payments of up to $185 per individual Cherokee Nation citizens on SNAP. It also includes over $1.25 million to support food banks and other non-profit food programs.

    "The Cherokee Nation's expanded emergency declaration includes tribal members who are currently on SNAP living anywhere in the United States. The Cherokee Nation has over 470,000 citizens living in all fifty states. Cherokee Chief Chuck Hoskin, Jr. said the Cherokee's network of 27 “at-large” organizations located in urban areas could access grants of $5,000 to address local food shortages.

    "The #GilaRiverIndianCommunity, south of #Phoenix in #Arizona, is distributing $1,000 hardship payments to all adult tribal members, regardless of whether or not they are SNAP recipients.

    "Gov. Stephen Roe Lewis said, 'We want to make sure that, as a sovereign nation, we take care of our members during this unprecedented shutdown.'

    " 'I hope that this payment brings some peace of mind during this time of uncertainty at the federal
    level.' "

    "The #BlackfeetNation brought in a load of produce from the #YakamaNation, and #FortPeck announced buffalo distribution. #GilaRiver is giving tribal members $1,000 in hardship funds, as the government shut-down continues.

    "Blackfeet Tribal Council Member Mike Comes At Night brought in a load of produce from the Yakama Nation in Washington State for the Blackfeet Nation in Montana. 'We made it home safely from the Yakama Nation with a generous load of produce for the Blackfeet People. I am honored, as a Councilman, to serve our people. I’ve traveled hundreds of miles to help
    bring food home, and at the end of the day, I know I am doing my job. I also want to thank all the farmers who helped us with this food — may the Creator bless them and their families," Comes at
    Night said.

    "#FortPeck's #Assiniboine and #Sioux Tribes are distributing buffalo meat, and gathering groceries, after declaring a state of emergency in Montana.

    "In California, the #Yurok Tribal Council approved $300 food assistance cards for Yurok because of the disruptions in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program #SNAP, and #CalFresh benefits, due to the federal government shutdown.
    'Our goal is to help our most vulnerable citizens get through this challenging time,' said Yurok Chairman Joseph L. James, who said the tribe is working to mitigate the hardships on families from
    the federal shutdown.

    "In #Tahlequah, Oklahoma, the #CherokeeNation announced a $6.5 million response package. This includes cash payments of up to $185 per individual Cherokee Nation citizens on SNAP. It also includes over $1.25 million to support food banks and other non-profit food programs.

  41. …But the #BlackHills have long been the subject of disputes between #SouthDakota & its tribes. The 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie recognized that the Black Hills belong to the #Sioux people, but the US government seized the #land less than a decade later to mine for gold. A 1980 #SCOTUS decision found that the US violated the treaty, but the tribes refused the $1.3B in compensation they were offered & maintained their rights to the land.
