Who they are
The Lakota are one of the best-known Indigenous nations of the Great Plains of North America, with a strong presence on reservations in South Dakota and North Dakota. Their strong cultural identity is grounded in their native language, sense of community and ancient spiritual traditions, which continue to guide families’ daily lives and shape their worldview.
