    Re Intro to Walter Mills a Lakota Elder Part II

    Re intro to  --  Walter Mills Lakota Elder Part II September 21, 2021 Walter Mills, Lakota Elder It is fascinating to get a view of life on the Pine Ridge Reservation in the 1940’s and 1950’s.  A glimpse of what life was like for Native Americans at that time.  One small fact was you could not purchase dog food at that time.  So if you had a family ranch and loved dogs how did you manage?  It was a pleasure to visit with Walter and have him share his experiences.
