So, that could be the end of #GreenpeaceUSA. Of course such a lawsuit is being filed against an NGO helping #Sioux and others in protesting the North Dakota Access #Pipeline. Disgusting, how big capital can do whatever it wants in #Trump's #USA.
Just streamed a movie that I've never seen before.
It's called #WomanWalksAhead starring #JessicaChastain doing what she does so well, playing a brave, rebellious & independent #woman, who in this case portrays a female painter named #CarolineWelden, who in real life befriended & painted a portrait of #SittingBull. the #Sioux chief, before he was killed in a confrontation w/the US soldiers to were attempting to arrest him.
The portrayal of his relationship w/Ms. Weldon & the circumstances of his death in the movie are fictional but the white American genocidal actions against #NativeAmerican people, as represented in the film, have been well proven & documented by history.
I'm going to buy the #DVD of this movie.
Today in Labor History February 27, 1973: 300 Oglala Sioux activists from the American Indian Movement (AIM) liberated and occupied Wounded Knee, South Dakota. This was the site of the infamous Massacre at Wounded Knee (1890). They occupied the site to protest a campaign of terror against them by the FBI, and corrupt tribal officials, and the tribal thugs knowns as GOONs (Guardians of Oglala Nation). The occupation lasted over 2 months, before being quashed by the U.S. government. 3 Native activists were killed. Dennis Banks and Russell Means were indicted for their roll, but charges were later dropped due to prosecutorial misconduct.

'People are scared': #FortPeck #TribalChair urges members to carry IDs to avoid #deportation
by Nora Mabie Jan 24, 2025
"#FortPeckAssiniboine and #Sioux Tribal Chairman #JustinGrayHawk on Friday issued a statement urging tribal members to carry their tribal IDs amid growing concern over President Donald #Trump’s recent executive orders.
"Gray Hawk wrote that community members feared the possibility of '(deporting) #NativeAmericans along with Mexicans in the hope that nobody can tell the difference.'
"When asked if the tribal enrollment office had received an uptick in calls after Trump’s inauguration, Enrollment Officer Twyla Red Eagle said, 'Yes. Yes. Yes.'
'Just this afternoon, we had 15 people in here,' she said. 'And people are calling from out-of-state where they had deportations already. … People are scared.'
"Fort Belknap Indian Community Vice President Judy King on Friday issued a similar statement, advising members to 'keep a copy of your tribal identification card on you at all times.'
"#NavajoNation Council delegates said they'd been contacted by tribal members in #Arizona who said they were detained by #ICE, according to the Arizona Republic.
"On his first day in office, Trump issued a slew of executive orders related to #immigration. He declared a national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border and said he plans to send U.S. troops to support agents, according to The Associated Press.
"Trump issued an executive order denying #USCitizenship to the children born in the states of parents living in the U.S. illegally. A U.S. District Judge temporarily blocked the order and as of Jan. 21, 22 states had sued to block the move, according to The Associated Press.
To request a #TribalID, visit the Fort Peck Tribes’ enrollment department or call 406-768-2311. The Fort Belknap Indian Community enrollment office can be reached at 406-353-8531 or 406-353-8532."

Today in Labor History January 8, 1877: Crazy Horse and his warriors fought their final battle against the U.S. Cavalry at Wolf Mountain, Montana Territory. Just six months earlier, Crazy Horse and Chief Gall had led Lakota, Cheyenne and Arapaho warriors in the routing of Custer and the 7th Cavalry in the Battle of Little Bighorn. Many bands of Sioux and Cheyenne had returned to the reservations to get food and supplies in preparation for winter. However, Congress had demanded that they cede the Black Hills in exchange for these goods, and they replaced the civilian contractors in charge of these supplies with army soldiers. This convinced many people to avoid the reservations and mistrust the U.S. government even more than they already did. Then, in December, U.S. troops defeated Sitting Bull’s band, as well as Dull Knife's Cheyennes, who had trekked through snow to join Crazy Horse. Considering their weakened condition and the approaching winter, Crazy Horse tried to negotiate peace with the army. The army responded by murdering Crazy Horse's delegation. Consequently, they continued fighting. The final battle occurred on January 8, 1877. While only 3 people died on each side and the battle was essentially a draw, the U.S. treated it as a strategic victory in light of their recent humiliation at Little Big Horn, and because it showed they could avoid defeat under harsh winter conditions.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1890, in an unacknowledged act of #genocide, the US military killed nearly 300 #Lakota #Sioux at #WoundedKnee. Soldiers went in to disarm the people, then opened fire on men, women, and children. 19 killers were given the #MedalOfHonor for this massacre.
In nasty show trials, 303 #Dakota #Sioux were sentenced to death. Most spoke no English, no evidence was given, no lawyers were used. #Lincoln reviewed the cases and approved 38 executions, and on #ThisDayInHistory in 1862, a mass execution was staged before 4000 jeering racists.

Native & Māori Women Haka at Standing Rock
"Our small group of First Nations women from across the globe in this video didn't go to the frontline that morning with the intention of performing this haka. We went to pass on the timeless, powerful and successful intentions of our ancestors by staring them in the eye.. and the haka is what took place within that action."
