In Season 2 Episode 4: Protect the ȞeSápa, Nick Tilsen, NDN Collective President and CEO talks about the the history of mining in the Black Hills of South Dakota, the direct corelation of the General Mining Act of 1872 and its relationship with the stealing of Indigenous land, and how we are working to protect the ȞeSápa today. “As long as the history is for the ȞeSápa, so is the history of resistance.” Featured guests include Taylor Gunhammer and Andrew Catt-Iron Shell, local organizers for NDN Collective.
