Lakota Nation vs. The United States.

In this Native American Heritage Month, I'm compelled to highlight the ongoing struggle of the Lakota Nation against the United States, as depicted in the film "Lakota Nation vs. United States." Amidst the nationwide protests of 2020, President Trump's unannounced visit to Mount Rushmore exacerbated tensions with the Lakota people, who legally own the land.

The documentary exposes the lack of communication and heavy-handed response by law enforcement, leading to arrests of peaceful protesters. Reflecting on these events, my optimism wanes, and I ponder the grim possibility that the Lakota may never reclaim their rightful land.
