Official Proclamation --"The Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate represents the Oglala people of Lakota Ancestry who announce their claim as part of the peta sakowin ( Seven Council Fires) of the Tetuwan Oyate ( Sioux Nation) and are the original caretakers of the land within the Treaties of 1851 and 1868. With the Tiwahe ( family) being the smallest unit of the Oyate and that, the sovereignty of our Oyate lies within the individuals of each Tiwahe. We claim our Sovereignty as Oglala Lakota People."-- --"1. Therefore, we , the Grass Roots Oglala Lakota Oyate do hereby declare our Independence from the dictatorship reigning over the great Tetuwan Oyate/ Oglala Band and demand our Sovereign Immunity Rights as entitled in the 1851 and 1868 Fort Laramie Treaties between the United States and the Tetuwan Lakota Oyate.
2. All legal remedies have been exhausted within the US Justice System and can see no other recourse but to take our case to the World Court.
3. We renounce the IRA (Indian Reorganization Act)
system along with all the rights , responsibilities, and Privileges derived. An organization cannot speak for a Nation of peoples.
4. We re-establish and reaffirm the legally agreed upon territorial boundaries of the Tetuwan Oyate as defined in the 1851 and 1868 Treaties.
5. We announce our intention to completely disengage from any further control Alternatively, supervision presently exercised upon us by the United States Government and it's agents (BIA/IRA); we intend to implement the protection and of the intervention of the United Nations Security Council, the General Assembly, and Human Rights Commission to monitor and oversee the orderly transfer of power and authority back to the people.
6. In furtherance of our firm insistence upon full and strict compliance of all articles in the 1851 & 1868 Treaties, we establish the Tetuwan Lakota Oyate International Headquarters.
7. The fact that the 3/4 vote needed to alter our Treaties as stated was never instituted and therefore dictates to us as Tetuwan Oyate that all Acts or Amendments that the U.S. passed after 1868 is without approval from the Lakota people are hereby deemed unconstitutional and illegal."--
The best date I have on this is the copyright, 2001.
