Happy New Year and many blessings to you in 2022, Gloria Hazell Derby. I saw your name & the beginning of a message about your webpage on my phone and then it disappeared. I cannot find any current messages from you. Feel free to send it to me it messenger or wherever you would like. I want to keep up with everything that is happening as I really hope to be there next year to somehow help out. Thanks very much

Laurie Costa
Thank you for sharing video of the brave and dedicated Riders as they enter Mankato for their sacred Reconciliation Ceremony.

Sue Thompson
Laurie Costa I was blessed to have witnessed this thankful for the awakening

Laurie Costa
also very thankful for the awakening I have had due to what’s been shared via posts and the phenomenal web site. Have also learned, through a lot of research, about the true history before and after this horrific event. The atrocities that occurred even after this mass hanging are numerous and unthinkable. I am so embarrassed about this whole situation and really hope to be able to help next year. Perhaps we will meet!
Treacy Meyer
Laurie Costa if you ever get the chance to see the movie “neither wolf nor dog” it is an amazing eye opening movie of things that took place so many years ago that so many people know nothing about I have helped with preparing food for the riders in Courtland and have really enjoyed it and have learned so much.
Laurie Costa
Treacy Meyer Hi Treacy. Thanks so much for the recommendation of this film. I will definitely check it out. Is it streaming anywhere? If not, I’ll try libraries & colleges. I really want to learn about things that have been hidden from us. I’ve already

started researching libraries to see if there were any books about The execution of The Dekota 28 + 2. Not one non fiction book or mention in Abraham Lincoln biographies!! Same thing in textbooks!
I would love to help with the riders. If you need an extra pair of hands, I’m really hoping to be there next year & would love to help in any way! Glad you learned a lot and prepared the food. Thanks for doing that! Happy for you that you learned a great deal. I’m going to try to find as much info on The Dakota 38 + 2 as I can, along with all of the Native American Women who are disappearing and being murdered as well as the boarding schools. We have to get the truth out there!!! Thanks for reaching out to me! Stay safe and well!
