Over 300 Indigenous protectors : [link removed] up today to protect unceded Očeti Šakowiŋ land in the Ȟe Sapa, also known as the “Black Hills”, from Trump's visit to the Mt. Rushmore Independence Day fireworks show. This event was a clear sign of disrespect to the people of the Očeti Sakowin. They have never accepted money for the Ȟe Sapa and never will. We demand the settler state respect our treaties and remove white supremacist imagery from our sacred lands.


For over four hours land defenders held their ground, not allowing Trump supporters from entering the Mt. Rushmore park. Land defender vans have been impounded and at least twelve protectors have been arrested. 


We need your help to protect the protectors: Donate now to help their bail fund : [link removed]!


This situation is ongoing. We will continue to protect Indigenous land from the violent settler state.

Be sure to tune into NDN Collective : [link removed] andKili Radio : [link removed] for the latest from the frontline.
