Subject: Wild Horse and Pine Ridge
To: undisclosed-recipients:;

  Below is a message that I am sending out for Wild Horse and for the
people at
  Pine Ridge. After all the confusion and all the writings back and forth, I
  finally tracked down the number and spoke with Wild Horse myself. He appears
  to be an intelligent man who is trying to help. I asked him several
questions
  of which he gave me prompt answers to and even read me some of the emails
  from the GrassRoots at Pine Ridge...complete with time stamps. I then called
  Pine Ridge...I spoke with Harvey White Woman who verified what Wild Horse
had
  told me. And who also verified that he, Wild Horse, was indeed the one that
  they wanted to post the releases for them and to maintain their web site.

  I offer my apologies to Clyde and am sure that some where along the line
  there was much confusion on what was going on. No one at Pine Ridge has
"met"
  Wild Horse...however, they did give him the duty of posting for them. I am
  not sure what happened and I have explained to all that I think the calls
for
  "red alerts" and for "all people" to come up to Pine Ridge concerned many
  people as we did not want to see problems start from a stream of well
  intentioned people streaming into an already tense situation. I know Clyde
  and the rest of AIM and others trying to sort this out..were only going by
  what they heard...that no one "knew" this man...and so and so said he did
  this or that...I, for one, will admit that we need to work on our
  communication and keeping things more ordered in tense situations like this.
  I think a lot of the confusion can be credited to that also...an extremely
  tense situation...gunshots being fired..people screaming...etc. The
situation
  is calmer...things are !
  getting out better now. With all due respect to those who were upset with
  Wild Horse, I have to abide by those at Pine Ridge who told me with their
own
  voices that this is the person they have designated as their internet
source.
  (If anyone wishes to complain, gripe, yell or scream...please contact me
  privately and let's not confuse the situation any more than it already has
  been...thank you.)

  Below is the press release from the Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate.

  PLEASE POST IMMEDIATELY
 

   January 27, 2000
 

   This is to inform all concerned that the web site GrassRootsOyate supported
   by Wild Horse/Sierra Times has been and will be carrying any and all e-mail
   messages we wish to forward, to all concerned in our current situation.

   This is to further advise that we will not acknowledge and have not
   authorized any other parties to speak on our behalf.   This includes all
   individuals, organizations, groups, who have taken liberties to put forth
   information regarding situations occurring, here.

   We do make every attempt to have a daily press release to keep everyone
   informed.  Sometimes, there is some delay because we remain focused on our
   specific goals-have the OST Treasurer permanently removed due to
malfeasance
   and other illegal acts while in office; and a full forensic audit on the
   financial records of the Oglala Sioux Tribe.

   Please understand that each of us, here in the Red Cloud Building, has
   chosen to come here in support of the Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate
and to
   help in whatever manner possible-we all have varying levels of abilities
and
   skills but we think and act in unity and with one vision and WE, will speak
   with one voice.

   If you have questions please call us at 605-867-5303 or 605-867-5821.
