PHOTOS Long Walk horseback to support elderly occupation Pine Ridge





The Long Walk 3 northern route walked into Pine Ridge, South Dakota, last week, then walked to the bordertown of White Clay to offer prayers for healing. They supported the occupation of the elderly center on Pine Ridge and in turn, received support for the Long Walk 3 for the reversal of diabetes. On Sunday, the walkers were in Wanblee, South Dakota. Thanks to Carl Bad Bear Sampson, Western Shoshone, and his father, for sending the photos to Censored News via cell phone.
Update Tuesday, April 5, 2011 from LW3 northern route: "We are in Rosebud, and walking to Mission which is about 12 miles. Runners will be running from Mission to Carter, the reZ border. Lower Brule is sending runners to help us run from Reliance to Lower Brule SD. Schedule was change because we wanted to support the soberity Walk to White Clay and the Elderly occupation. Schedule will be change but we'll keep posting. Some place we don't have phone receptions or internet but I'll try to keep posted. thank you for supporting Longest Walk 3." Chris Francisco
