I'm Lakota Sioux.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I represent nine sovereign Sioux tribes. In South Dakota, some of the tribes are in the most remote, rural areas of the country. They lack essential infrastructure. Some communities don't even have clean drinking water.
This is going to sound weird, but when I was a kid my old man used to tell us that he was a Sioux Indian warrior in his former life. Native American culture was always big in my house - I don't know why.
I'm a Native American actress.
I'm very attracted to Indians.
I differ materially from Capt. Lewis, in my account of the numbers, manners, and morals of the Sioux.
I represent more Native Americans than anyone else in Congress.
When I was a boy, the Sioux owned the world. The sun rose and set on their land; they sent ten thousand men to battle. Where are the warriors today? Who slew them? Where are our lands? Who owns them?
I always thought of myself as a good old South Dakota boy who grew up here on the prairie.
I'm a member of the American Indian Movement, and I'm from the indigenous nations of the Western Hemisphere.
I had many enemies among the Sioux; I would be running considerable risk in meeting them.
