Return the Black Hills to the Oceti Sakowin

The Mt. Rushmore carving is an international symbol of white supremacy and racial injustice, and represents the history of oppression of the Lakota Nation in their own homelands, the theft of Indigenous lands, and the continued erasure of Indigenous history, culture and people.

The Mt. Rushmore carving represents the active oppression of the Lakota Nation in their own homelands, the theft of Indigenous lands, and the continued erasure of Indigenous history, culture and people.

Standing in solidarity with our ancestors, families, our allies, and the Oceti Sakowin (Seven Council Fires of Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota Nations), we are calling on Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and President Biden to close Mt. Rushmore and return all Public lands in the Black Hills to the Oceti Sakowin as negotiated in the 1868 Treaty of Ft. Laramie, as Indigenous treaties are the supreme law of the land.

Further, we call upon all Americans to stand in solidarity with Indigenous communities and advocate for a world of justice and equity that honors diversity and BIPOC populations
