Let us all give back together to be one tribe. Let's not look at one another saying "Your half this, half that." We have one nation... Construction, big construction operators digging into Mother Earth finding different kinds of stones, black stones, yellow stones. Taking everything out, but what are they putting back in?... Our water is being polluted, our air is getting polluted, because of these people with a whole bunch of money that don't care about these other ones over here...What are our children going to do, what are our grandchildren going to do? But you see that the Red Man is going to make it, one way or another, we're gonna make it.

What I want to stress is that, so many treaties have been broken. Not only the Omaha's, but all nations. The government said, "we will take care of you as long as the green grass grows, the water flows", but I don't see that. They're taking this, they're taking that, but giving nothing... When we fight back what happens to us, the Native American Indians? They put us behind bars, blink of an eye. We have one out there behind bars, he does not belong there, because he was standing up for us, for all nations. He is not forgotten. (Referring to Leonard Peltier).
