2nd April 2006 - Urgent

Hi Everyone

I recieved the is letter and have been monitoring this situation closely with www.defendblackhills.org  The area around Bear Butte is in serious danger of having all the peace and quiet around this sacred site being destroyed basically by the invasion of the white man once again.  Read about this on the Defenders site and there has to be someone out there than can help!!!!

To help the Natives to buy this land would be an incredible victory for them in helping to retain this land for sacred purpose, Bear Butte being an amazing place that has been used  (and still being used) for centuries for Vision Quest and other ceremonies by many tribes around that area.
