This blog will be written with the idea of understanding American culture as an Oglala Sioux Indian. I have been on the East Coast since 2014. I am experiencing American culture from a Native American perspective. I hope to bring you along on this journey. I believe I have walked among angels and even met God. It has been the greatest time of my life, and I will be sharing it here. Thank you and enjoy.

The Death of White Clay
I have said it many times and I will not stop, the only way to close White Clay is to open up sales of Alcohol on the Pine Ridge. The people in the northern part of Sheridan County do like the way their communities looks. They want us to go back to where we came from, duh that would be the Great Sioux Nation. This little area is suppose to be protected from this type of trade, or alcohol. I am going to be blunt in this because I believe we are a great people. I have met people actually believe we are less human than the white people because we lack genes. I am sick of people believing we are less than human. I have tried to be respectful but it is time to make changes in our lives.
When I was young I studied prohibition of the early 20th century and it was not successful. People seemed to actually drink more and crime rose in the 20s. I do not like to see our people in White Clay begging for money and passing out on the streets. It is a sad place and I hope the people will vote for the sales of alcohol on the Pine Ridge because it is time we deal with our own problems. The beer store owners are not going to help us. I know a couple of them but they are just out to make a living. Let's shut down White Clay by voting for Alcohol Sales on the Pine Ridge.
