“Members of the Sioux Nation are attempting to raise $1 million dollars to buy back a section of South Dakota land known in their culture as ‘the Center and heart of everything that is.’ About 2,000 acres of land in the state’s Black Hills is scheduled to go up for auction next week, including what’s known to the Sioux as Pe’ Sla. The Rosebud Sioux Tribe has teamed up with the Native American blog Last Real Indians for an online fundraising campaign that began Monday, with an Aug. 23 deadline.”
