Media may have exaggerated Sioux seccession claims.
CofCC.org News Team
Russel Means, the leader of the Secessionist Sioux Indians, does not actually hold a leadership position in the tribe. He ran unsuccessfully for president of the Oglala Sioux Tribe in 2006.
A news report by USA Today, which was picked up by a number of foreign press agencies, is simply an article that reported Russell Means’ press release as a factual news story. USA Today did not investigate or validate the story before reporting it.
Whether or not any actual leaders of the Lakota Sioux Indian Tribe are advocating Secession remains to be seen.
- Men claiming Lakota Sioux leadership say they are withdrawing from US.
- Akron mayor bypasses local police. Calls in FBI over brutal mob attack on white family.
- American Indian Tribe rejects diversity.
- Who is Al Sharpton to accuse others of “hate?”
- Obama still fighting freedom of information requests to release college records.
