“We’re going to make a way”: Wounded Knee Descendants and Relatives Travel to
New England to Ask for their Artifacts Back

On Apr. 6, after decades of back-and-forth, the Barre Museum’s board members held a private meeting with descendants and
relatives of Wounded Knee victims and survivors to show the collection, and to make plans for how to begin repatriation.
Among them were Chief Henry Red Cloud of the Oglala Lakota Nation, Manny Iron Hawk of the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation,
and his wife, Renee Iron Hawk.

“In our way of life, when somebody makes their journey, there’s a spirit releasing ceremony that needs to take place,
and that didn’t happen for these ancestors,” Chief Henry Red Cloud said in a community meeting at the town hall in Barre.
“They’re stuck in this limbo. So we’re going to make a way.”

Red Cloud, a direct descendant from Wounded Knee — his great-grandmother was a survivor who then married into his tribe —
was a key player in making the meeting with the museum board happen. He was contacted last month by his longtime friend Mia Feroleto,
a journalist who asked him to come take a look at the museum’s collection and see if, given his position as a chief, he could begin the process of repatriation.

Bonnet Ceremony for Henry Red Cloud, Bear Butte, S.D. September 20, 2020
let the pictures speak here is the link

Henry Red Cloud is a fifth generation direct descendant of Mahpiya Luta (Chief Red Cloud) one of the last Lakota war chiefs and a signer of the 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty. Henry has been a protector of the Lakota Oyate for decades and a teacher of renewable energy and sustainable building for almost twenty years. He teaches a „New Way to Honor the Old Ways“ to students from more than 50 tribes across the Northern Plains and far beyond.
Over the last two years he prepared himself through four phases of preparation to take on more responsibility and his efforts culminated this last weekend when more than 100 people gathered at Bear Butte, the sacred vision quest area and participated in his „Making of a Chief Ceremony“.
The Ceremony was organized by Lula Red Cloud
, the Matriarch and oldest woman of the Red Cloud family as well as other members of the Red Cloud family. Leonard Crow Dog, the great spiritual leader of the Lakota led the ceremony. Chief John Spotted Tail, Chief of the Sicangu Lakota Oyate, the direct descendant of the legendary Chief Spotted Tail, placed the bonnet upon Henry’s head. Ivan Looking Horse was the Eyapaha (ceremony moderator) and Tamra Stands and Looks Back-Spotted Tail made the bonnet and was a major organizer and supporter of this historical event.

KILI Radio Gains Energy Independence!

KILI Radio, „The Voice of the Lakota Nation“ — an independent radio station funded entirely by donations from global listeners, gains energy independence. A stellar conglomeration of partnering organizations, including Red Cloud Renewable, Lakota Solar, InOurHands, Thunder Valley CDC, Sunset Power Solutions, Remote Energy, Johnny Weiss Solar, and a number of dedicated volunteers, just completed the 20 Kw ground-mount solar array. Just one step closer to energy sovereignty in First Nation communities.

Red Cloud Renewable Selects 2020 Tribal Scholarship Recipients
Henry Red Cloud from the Pine Ridge Reservation and Solar Energy International (SEI) have worked together on renewable energy training and projects for almost 20 years.
Today they announced the Five Students and Alternate who have been selected to receive full scholarships for this year’s professional training program.
Henry’s non-profit organization, Red Cloud Renewable (RCR) and SEI created the professional level Tribal Train the Trainer (T4) Program that is designed specifically to build the Native American solar workforce, while concurrently providing the solar trainers and tribal solar advocate network that will spread this technology all across Indian Country!
Recipients are: Gwe Gasco (White Earth), Gail Huebbling (Yankton Sioux), Jon Edwards (Standing Rock), Wambli Red Cloud (Pine Ridge), Chris French (Yankton) and Rachael La Friniere (Turtle Mountain)
These two women and four men from five tribes will receive funding that covers the the cost of their T4 teachers, curriculum and materials, as well as their meals and lodging at the Sacred Earth Lodge, their transportation and the cost for their national NABCEP solar certification test. Corvid 19 precautions will be in place at all time.

Relatedly, new solar training labs are currently under construction on the Pine Ridge Reservation for use by the 2020 Solar Warriors as part of a significant expansion of Red Cloud Renewable’s professional level solar training capacity.
This training session, RCR will provide special attention to support solar development efforts on the Yankton Sioux Reservation. Henry Red Cloud, RCR’s Executive Director says: Gail Huebbling and Chris French were two of the founders of the „Solar Warrior Society“ at Yankton, and we want to support them and others there to explore the full spectrum of solar possibilities!
A key part of Red Cloud Renewable’s success has been its efforts to build and engage its Solar Champion Network, which consists of employees from tribal governments and colleges, as well as other tribal members and leaders who are willing to help recruit students and also advocate on behalf of increased solar projects on their reservations.

Henry Red Cloud – Citationv – Honorary Doctor of Public Service

More than a hundred years ago, the great Mahpiya Luta, Red Cloud of the Lakota Sioux, led his people and neighboring tribes in the defense of their right to occupy their ancestral lands and retain their culture and way of life.
He subsequently shepherded his people into a new and challenging future beyond anything that his own ancestors had imagined: a future with a new set of rules and limited freedoms, overseen by people of a foreign culture and economic and social goals at odds with their own.
Today, the Lakota Sioux, along with all inhabitants of Planet Earth, are facing a new set of seemingly insurmountable realities: climate change and the dwindling availability and expense of natural resources.
Henry Red Cloud, a respected Lakota elder in his own right, has used his creativity, skill, and the noted leadership abilities shared with his legendary ancestor to enable his tribe and other Native communities across the continent to meet these new and daunting challenges.
Born on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, Henry spent many years as a steelworker, living and working in other parts of the country. He returned to Pine Ridge in the late 1990s with a fresh perspective on the plight of his home community and was inspired to volunteer his time to work on sustainable home building, solar energy, and wind turbine projects. He soon began to manufacture solar heaters on his own using his mechanical and engineering skills and realized that he could train and hire local community members to help bring sustainable living to more families and communities.
Thus, Lakota Solar Enterprises was born– a 100% Native owned and operated renewable energy company that establishes family-scale solar heating systems on reservations. Out of this company grew the Red Cloud Renewable Energy Center, a Native educational facility funded by private donations and public funding, where not only citizens of Pine Ridge, but tribal leaders from far and wide, come to learn the skills necessary to obtain green energy jobs, bring energy solutions to their own communities, and even start their own businesses.
They take that knowledge back to their own communities, where its benefits are paid forward, increasing exponentially as it is shared. Henry’s accomplishments have not gone unnoticed; during the past ten years he has earned many awards, both national and international, including a Solve fellowship from MIT (2018) and recognition by the White House as a Champion of Change.
While Henry’s work has given so many communities the ability to improve their tangible quality of life, he has done so in a way that enriches the spirit of these communities, restoring and strengthening cultural pride.
He reminds tribes that a return to their traditional relationship with Mother Earth, which has always been respectful and sustainable, can serve them well in addressing modern problems. He shows by his example that the success of an enterprise cannot merely be measured by financial gains: instead, a greater measure can be its uplifting, sustaining effect on others. Inspired by his ancestors and his grandchildren, he teaches that we can learn from the wisdom and experience of those who have gone before, giving hope and purpose, strength and inspiration, in turn to succeeding generations.
In recognition of his exemplary work and mission, and of the vision and model that he provides for leaders, communities, and individuals everywhere, Washington College is pleased to honor him with the honorary degree, Doctor of Public Service.

Greetings from Henry Red Cloud’s friend, Richard Fox.
I hope you are well this fine deep summer day.
I thought you might want to see these pix from yesterday of Phase 1 of the Kili Radio 20 kW solar install.
It’s Henry’s biggest solar install job so far.
This phase is all the concrete and pipe framing and trenching.
We will install the panels and have a training for Native Americans in late September.
Being the change you want to see in the world…and in this case…better assuring the
Voice of the Lakota Nation is heard for many years to come.
While we have successfully solicited and received gifts and grants of more than $80,000 for this project,
we are still about $7,000 short of what we need to actually complete it.
I am hoping YOU can help us out towards completing this major renewable energy expansion for Kili Radio.
Once completed, Kili Radio will be the greenest radio station in South Dakota and the most renewable Native owned radio station in the world!
If you can help, every dollar is important and no gift is too small.

Wir haben heute mit Henry Red Cloud telefoniert und er hat uns folgendes mitgeteilt:

Henry Red Cloud braucht Unterstützung in der Schlacht der Pipeline in Minnesota
Sie werden kämpfen, um die Linie 3 Ölpipeline zu stoppen.
Dieses Mal werden Sie nicht aufgeben wie im Standing Rock Protest,
denn diese Pipeline konnte nicht gestoppt werden.

Henry Red Cloud wird für die Wasser Beschützer eine Solaranlage und Einschulungen für die Solar Kämpfer machen.
Es kann sogar eine Solarversorgung übernommen werden in Minnesota, dafür werden finanzielle Mittel gebraucht.
Die Wasser Beschützer brauchen dieses an der Front.

Sie benötigen Solarwechselrichter, Batterien und Solarpanels im Wert von 8000 Euro,
um den Beschützern des Wassers eine Stromquelle zu geben.
Ein Teil des Geldes wird verwendet, um die Solar Kämpfer auszubilden.
Die Solaranlagen werden dann für die Bedürfnisse des Camps
(Facebook live Videos, damit die Welt sieht was dort wirklich geschieht,
es wird von den Medien immer noch verheimlicht), verwendet werden.
Sie kämpft seit 5 Jahren gegen den Bau dieser Pipeline und ist eine der größten Aktivistinnen in den USA.
Und wieder wollen die Ölkonzerne keine Rücksicht auf das Wasser nehmen.
Wie in Standing Rock wird auch dieses Mal wieder eine heilige Grabstätte vernichtet.
Wer ein bisschen Erfahrung in der indianischen Kultur hat, weiß wie heilig ihnen die Gräber sind.

Ich werde nicht um Geld betteln,
denn ihr sollt verstehen, dass es auch uns etwas angeht.
Sie beschützen das, was uns allen gehört – das WASSER
ohne Wasser – kein Leben
ohne Wasser – werden unsere Enkelkinder keines mehr haben
ohne Wasser – es gibt keinen Planet B
Wir haben nur diese Erde und können jeden Tag dafür danken,
dass wir in unseren Regionen noch so viel Trinkwasser haben,
dass wir damit unsere Autos waschen.

Es war eine sehr schoene Erfahrung, der Mutter Erde fuer die nachsten 7 Generationen

Wie Henry sagt: Die Mutter Erde ist keine Maschine.
Henry wird in diesem Jahr 36.000 Bäume pflanzen.
Ende Mai werden Sie 5000 Bäume in Bear Butte der Mutter Erde zurückgeben.
Sie rechnen, dass 30 % der Bäume die sie pflanzen, nicht überleben.
Der Mai ist der einzige Monat den sie für das Pflanzen nehmen können, da es sonst zu heiß wird.
Henry und Gloria müssen dann den Benzin für die Helfer bezahlen, die Köchin und die Lebensmittel.
Fuer einen Arbeiter aus Pine Ridge müsste Henry 80 Dollar pro Tag bezahlen.
Jetzt wo wir selber dabei waren, wissen wir mit wie viel Schweiß, Mückenstichen und gefährlichen
Pflanzen sowie Wetterbedingungen,
die hier in unseren Breitengraden nicht vorkommen, Henry seinem Volk hilft, für die nächsten Generationen

Henry Red Cloud und die Treaty Pipe

Es war Chief Red Cloud Mahpiya Luta, der den Fort Laramie Vertrag von 1868 unterzeichnete, damit
der Krieg beendet wird. In jeder Kultur werden solche formellen Entscheidungen auf unterschiedliche Weise geheiligt. Bei den Lakotas wird eine Pfeife zusammen geraucht.
Am vergangenen Wochenende (22.9.2016) hat Henry Red Cloud, diese Pfeife, die an diesem historischen Friedensvertrag von 1868 geraucht wurde, in das heilige Steinlager von Wendell Yellow Bull Jr. gebracht, dem neunten Hüter von Mahpiya Lutas Pfeife. In einer Prozession, die von Henry Red Cloud angeführt wurde.
Im Standing Rock Reservat war ein Council im Tipi, wo alle 7 Nationen der Lakotas wieder an dem
heiligen Feuer zusammen getroffen sind. Es waren hochrangige Gespraeche mit den Haeuptlingen
der Nationen.
Nach der Zeremonie gab es eine Diskussionen und Henry sprach im Namen von Mahpiya Luta zu den vielen Hunderten Leuten, die sich in der Nähe des Council Tipi versammelt hatten.
Er sprach über die Notwendigkeit der Einheit, Mutter Erde zu schützen, aber auch die Notwendigkeit, immer in einer friedlichen gewaltlosen Weise zu handeln. Henry sagte:
„Wir können die Vergangenheit nicht ändern, aber wir können die Zukunft verändern!“

Henry will eine bedeutende Investition in Infrastruktur und Bildung in erneuerbarer Energien sehen.
Er weiß, dass South Dakota riesige Solar- und Windressourcen hat und zum Status der erneuerbaren Energien werden kann. Es sind große Investitionen noetig, um die Ausbildung von Menschen über die Solar- und Windenergie, sowie die Ausrüstung, Installation und Instandhaltung zu finanzieren.
Henry sagt: „Viele der aktuellen Ölarbeiter könnten in diesem neueren, sichereren, energieorientierten Ansatz viel bessere, gesündere Arbeitsplätze finden und wir müssen ihnen die notwendige Schulungs- und Übergangshilfe geben.“
Henry hat eine lange Geschichte in der Arbeit und Lehre über erneuerbare Energien einschließlich seine laufende Firma Lakota Solar Enterprises.
