novaTopFlexHype for the Future 142G: Unorganized Counties in South Dakota
Overview While every county located within the State of South Dakota is an official unit of government within the State, the particular counties of Todd and Oglala Lakota (formerly Shannon) within the State are identified as dependent on external counties for duties, namely the Counties of Tripp and Fall River. Even though Oglala Lakota County exists within the State of South Dakota, the community of Hot Springs within Fall River County takes the duties of the county. Similarly, Todd County […]
Liam O'Mara IV, PhD#AmericanIndianMovement (#AIM) led, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1973, 250 #OglalaLakota in a 71-day occupation of the #WoundedKnee site, demanding the US gov. fulfil broken treaty promises. Instead of talking, feds besieged the site & engaged in 11 lethal firefights. Nothing changed.
DoomsdaysCW#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."

ICE Jails Oglala Sioux Members at Fort Snelling, Site of 19th-Century Concentration Camp
Among nonimmigrants who’ve been swept up by ICE’s campaign of racial profiling are four members of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, three of whom remain jailed at an ICE facility at Fort Snelling south of the Twin Cities. It’s the same site where, in 1862, U.S. forces imprisoned about 1,700 Indigenous men, women, children and elders following the U.S.-Dakota War, where many died of torture, starvation and disease; survivors were exiled to reservations in what’s now South Dakota.
#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."

"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.' "
