Companies like PLS want to undo protections for sacred sites across Turtle Island to โ€œdrill baby drillโ€ but weโ€™re ready and organized.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Call the Forest Service at (605) 343-1567 to demand they rescind the Categorical Exclusion (CE) permit.

In 2014, 4 tribes raised $9M to purchase back Peโ€™sla & worked with the federal gov to get the central prayer site & a 2-mile buffer zone into federal trust. This was to recognize the religious and cultural significance of the area and therefore protect it from harmful mining activity like PLS.

Pete Lien & Sons (PLS) are coming to destroy our culture and our history!

This morning, February 27th, 2026, the Black Hills National Forest issued a permit to drill for graphite at sacred site Peโ€™sla โ€” despite community outcry to stop the project.

โ€œPrior to European contact, there were 30 to 60 million buffalo roaming from Oregon to New Jersey, the Arctic circle to Mexico. By the time settlers were through using buffalo for target practice, nearly all had been killed.โ€

โ€œToday, 25% of Indigenous peoples do not have regular access to food. This reality is largely set by policy decisions of the past, including those that separated Indigenous peoples from their historical food source of buffalo...โ€

โ€œKill every buffalo you can. Every buffalo dead is an Indian gone.โ€

The federal government understood the connection between Indigenous Tribes and the buffalo. Colonists, traders, & military leaders understood the life-giving connection insofar as they used it against Indigenous peoples.

โ€œThe vision is a buffalo corridor connecting the lands from Wind Cave National Park in the Black Hills, extending all the way to the Missouri River. Buffalo havenโ€™t been permitted to roam freely. Soon they might & it will change everything" ~Foster Hogan, Buffalo Nations Coordinator, NDN Collective

Indigenous communities are hard at work restoring the buffalo Back from the brink of extinction, buffalo are at the center of an ecological revolution led by Indigenous leaders

โ€œAcross the U.S., Indigenous peoples are leading an ecological revolution to return buffalo to their homelands in order to heal cultural ties severed by federal policy and restore the wellbeing of ecosystems that once thrived with the buffalo.โ€ย

We will continue to honor the legacy of Rev. Jackson by fighting for economic justice, civil rights, and organizing alongside other movements as we fight the authoritarian regime we are currently facing.

In 2016, Rev. Jackson stood alongside Indigenous peoples at Standing Rock as we fought the Dakota Access Pipeline. While he was there he offered these words โ€œWe donโ€™t need no pipeline, we need lifelines.โ€ Those words remain true today as we continue to fight climate, civil, & economic injustice.

Today, NDN Collective honors the life of Reverend Jesse Jackson. As a civil rights activist throughout his life we are grateful for his leadership. Rev. Jackson showed true commitment to justice for everyone. He was often side by side with those fighting for a better world.

In 2023, NDN Holdings purchased the land and began working with the Native Conservancy to transfer ownership. NDN helped Native Conservancy incubate the ECLT formation so the land would stay with the Eyak people and be protected for many generations to come.
