The US Supreme Court ruled in 1980 that the Black Hills were unconstitutionally taken and awarded the local tribes a settlement of $120.5 million, which, with interest, is now worth over $1.5 billion.

The Lakota Tribe continues to assert their right to the land and has not accepted the monetary award, stating that- 'The Black Hills Are Not For Sale'!

“The world was a library and its books were the stones, leaves, grass, brooks, and the birds and animals that shared, alike with us, the storms and blessings of earth. We learned to do what only the student of nature learns, and that was to feel beauty.”

~ Luther Standing Bear, Sicangu-Oglala Lakota, (1868-1939)

“There is no death! Death is very much like sunset. It is only an appearance! For, when the sun sets here, it rises elsewhere. In reality, the sun never sets. Likewise, death is only an illusion, an appearance. For, what is death here is birth elsewhere.”

“One does not sell the earth upon which the people walk."

He refused to be photographed, refused to sign away his people's land, and became the most revered war leader the Lakota ever produced... Crazy Horse remains a figure almost more spirit than man, because he never let the world pin him down.

A quiet, intensely private Oglala Lakota warrior, Crazy Horse earned his reputation through raw courage in battle rather than speeches. He was central to the stunning defeat of the army at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, where the allied Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho overwhelmed Custer's command. But even that victory could not stop what was coming. With the buffalo vanishing and his people starving through a brutal winter, Crazy Horse finally led his band in to surrender in 1877.

Months later, during a struggle at Fort Robinson, he was fatally bayoneted by a soldier as he allegedly resisted being locked in a cell. He was only in his thirties. He left behind no verified photograph, no signed treaty, and no grave anyone can point to with certainty.

Riches would do us no good.
