A serendipitous close encounter with a herd of buffalo on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Shooting for @gatherfilm feature doc on Native American food sovereignty this week! ~

Word from director @mrsanjayr - The Oglala Lakota Native Americans on Pine Ridge are as resilient and proud as they come. Much is made in the Western press of the alarming poverty on the Reservation but in my opinion much context is missing. These great Peoples bore the brunt of the US military’s rage post Civil War. In fact the military enough was not sufficient to force their surrender. US GOVERNMENT policy shifted to adopt asymmetrical warfare - destroying the food supply of the Oglala Lakota became the key to weakening the core of their identity. “Kill one buffalo, kill two Indians”, a quote attributed to a Colonel Dodge, was more impactful than bullets. The buffalo population was reduced from 60 million to just 24 individuals. Yet the ancestors of the present day Natives did not give up and as a result, the Buffalo people, as they’re known, are experiencing a slow but marked rejuvenation. Tankabar, a bison bar, has illustrated that Buffalo can continue to support the people even in a capitalistic western society. And folks like Ed Iron Cloud, who considers himself a “caretaker” of the buffalo rather than a rancher, continue to grow the strength and numbers of these once mighty herds. The Buffalo People are on the ascendant. ~ with @tanya_meillier @chzamag @daharbfilm @shaandiin @fndi303 @the11thhourproject @sterlinharjo @taylorfreesolo @elsiedubray @a.j._crankshaw ~
