In this episode, we talk about LANDBACK in the Black Hills. The battle for the Black Hills is the longest legal battle over land in the American judicial system. In 1980, the Supreme Court ruled that the stealing of the Black Hills was one of the most gross violations of the Constitution in US history. Nick is joined by revered Lakota elders and spiritual leaders Richard Moves Camp and Robert Two Crow, as well as NDN Collective President Wizipan Little Elk Garriott and HeSapa LANDBACK organizer Anissa Martin to reflect and discuss He Sapa LANDBACK efforts.

- Reflections on the spiritual significance of the He Sapa
