    {EXCERPTED FROM On This Date In North American Indian History
    By Phil Konstantin}

    1818: After the fighting in Fowltown, on the Flint River in Georgia opposite  Ft. Scott on November 21, 1817, most of the CREEKs have abandoned the village. Today, forces under Andrew Jackson occupy the village. They will methodically destroy it to keep the "Red Stick" CREEKs from returning.

    SEASON GIFTING...
    It is that time of year again when we begin to think of winter cold and those in need.  Helping hands list...

    {click for KOTA weather}

    HEATING FUND
    Emergency heating funds....the weather has turned sharply colder and it appears that it will be a much colder winter than the last few we have experienced creating an incredible hardship for many.
    Money orders sent to the Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate will be distributed (or paid on account) for those in need of heating assistance.  In effect we will be creating a "voucher" system.  Your donation may be of any amount and several put together to meet minimums necessary for orders.
