Championing sustainable futures, grassroots democracy, social justice, and steadfast support for tribal sovereignty in South Dakota for @GreenPartyUS

What makes the @GreenPartyUS special?

We are a family. We just got a call from @DrJillStein...She didn't want to talk about her Presidential candidacy she wanted to listen.

She has heard about the change coming in South Dakota and wanted to know how to be the best ally she could be.

Our answer was simple. All South Dakotans deserve a voice....Our children deserve an Earth to inherit.....Stop the theft of Native children.....All South Dakotans deserve livable wages.....And honor the treaties by returning all federal land in the Black Hills back to the Lakota nations.

@KristiNoem Little-Kristi-Lies-A-Lot…You continue to sellout your state for the hopes of getting on the ticket as VP.

@SDresiden @GovKristiNoem @SDGOP Well it means she is not in South Dakota so there are less things she can destroy. lol

If you're in North Carolina next week, don't miss the opportunity to hear from SDGP Chair @ShaunLittleHorn at the Summit on Diverse Leadership in Climate and Agriculture.

He'll be discussing the groundbreaking project he's involved with for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe—the development of Anpetu Wi, the first commercial wind farm to be fully managed by a tribal nation.

Appreciation goes out to @GreenPartyUS for sharing our correspondence sent to all Democratic and Republican office bearers in South Dakota on the first day of Native American Heritage Month.

The United States of America must live up to their own Constitution (Article VI, Section 2) and return all federal lands in the Black Hills to the Lakota people.

Any official from @SDGOP or @SoDakDems who lacks the conviction to declare this stance openly should anticipate competition from a Green Party nominee in the forthcoming election.

We represent not disruption, but the embodiment of responsibility.

An Open Letter from the SDGP: Urging Elected Officials to Stand for the Return of the Black Hills to the Lakota People During Native American Heritage Month

To Whom It May Concern,

We, the South Dakota Green Party (SDGP), pen this message with a sense of unyielding urgency and unbridled conviction, calling for the end of a longstanding atrocity. As Native American Heritage Month brings into focus the heritage and history of the Indigenous peoples of our land, it also casts a harsh light on the injustices they continue to face—specifically, the wrongful withholding of the Black Hills from the Oceti Sakowin, the rightful Dakota, Nakota, and Lakota owners.

The history of the Black Hills is a scar on the fabric of our nation, a clear-cut case of theft under the broken promises of the U.S. government. The annals of history, particularly the aftermath of the Red Cloud Wars and the Treaty of Fort Laramie of 1868, record not only broken promises but a betrayal of trust so profound that it has marred our national integrity.

This matter transcends political allegiance and partisan lines. It is a question of moral fiber, of adhering to the rule of law and ensuring that America lives up to its own legal and ethical standards. In the landmark 1980 U.S. Supreme Court case "United States v. Sioux Nation of Indians," the court affirmed not merely the illegality of the land seizure but declared that the original treaty was, indeed, still in effect. It was a clear acknowledgment that the United States government had acted in violation of its own laws and commitments.

We call upon every Republican and Democrat in South Dakota, particularly those holding or seeking office, to publicly state their support for returning the Black Hills to the Oceti Sakowin. It is not merely a demand but an expectation that you, as our representatives, will uphold the laws of the United States of America and work to rectify this historical wrong.

To our elected officials: the time for equivocation is over. This should be a bipartisan issue. It is a matter of justice, fairness, and integrity. Your public support for the return of the Black Hills will signal a commitment to honoring the treaties and laws of our nation, serving justice where it has been denied for far too long.

To the people of South Dakota and the broader United States: this is not only an Indigenous issue but an American issue. It is about living up to the ideals we all hold dear.

We will not relent in our call for justice. The South Dakota Green Party demands action, not tomorrow, not in some distant future, but now. Let us join together to heal the wounds of the past and forge a path toward a future where respect for the law and for our shared humanity prevails.

Yours in solidarity and determination,

South Dakota Green Party

🌱🎉History Made in South Dakota! 🌱🎉

Exciting news! The South Dakota Green Party (SDGP) is officially accredited with the national @GreenPartyUS But this isn't just an end—it's a powerful new beginning.

We're poised not only to represent but to reimagine our state — a state where every voice is heard, where the environment is treasured, where historical treaties are upheld with respect, and where our most vulnerable are protected and uplifted.

We're not here for mere representation; we're here to revolutionize.

The SDGP is not just a party; it's a promise — a promise of a South Dakota where every individual, and every voice counts.

[South Dakota Green Party @sdgreenparty]

We will be releasing an official announcement later today with great news for the state of South Dakota.
