International Court of Justice: The Lakotas Last Stand

Jason Coppola, Truthout: 'On March 28, President Obama, in his address to the nation concerning events in Libya, declared, 'Wherever people long to be free, they will find a friend in the United States.' Here at home, it's been a different story. The violations of the treaties threaten the very way of life of the Lakota as uranium mining runoff poisons their land and water with radioactive waste and they continue their fight to live according to their 'traditional value system in rejection of a colonized world view,' says Sicangu Lakota linguist and lifelong activist Rosalie Little Thunder.'
