Chief Alfred Red Cloud, 5th generation descendant of warrior/statesman “Makhpiya-Luta” (1822-1909), will be traveling to Luxembourg and France this June to speak about land recovery and bison restoration on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Alfred and his Tiyospaye have been working with Village Earth since 2003 to recover, protect, and utilize their alloted lands in the southwest corner of the Reservation. They have also helped other families follow the same path, recognizing the relationship between land, cultural survival, and political sovereignty.
