The deconstruction process is complete.
The main focus was to get the
structure down.
Now the main focus will shift to
what happens to the wood.
Recognizing that more people from
the Dakota community wish to participate in this process and it takes time to
call a meeting, there is no elder meeting this week regarding the next steps
for the wood. They wish to take time, slow down and allow more voices.
Until the larger Dakota Oyate is
able to meet, there will be no actions except to keep the wood stored in a
safe, secure location owned by Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board.
DAKOTA OYATE ELDERS MEETING
9:00 AM start promptly. Plan to meet all day.
Sunday June 25
Sisseton
All Dakota are welcome to listen
No press are invited to this meeting.
More details to follow...
Respectfully,
