About Me

Standing Silent Nation is a documentary feature that chronicles the story of a Lakota family's struggle to develop an industrial hemp economy on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. This myspace is for the film, a better way to reach Alex and the White Plumes is through their website: www.bringbacktheway.com

My Interests

Growing hemp and making documentaries

I'd like to meet:

The US Congress to have them pass a bill to distinguish between industrial hemp and marijuana, so we can grow hemp in the United States.

Music:

Indian Hemp Seed, sung by Courtney Hermann

Movies:

Standing Silent Nation, the Defend Bear Butte documentary

Heroes:

The White Plume Tiospaye, freedom fighters everywhere
