Oglala Lakota College Archives

Tanyan Yahi!
This platform is our digital portal to access knowledge and history of the Oglala Oyaηke, the Oceti Sakowiη of the Tituηwaη Oyate, and our indigenous relatives in the Northern Plains Region. Our work centers around this statement: Ehanni Taηhaη Takuku Uηpataηpi, meaning Saving Things from Long Ago for the Future. We are simply caretakers and will soon welcome community input and knowledge to add to the featured content.
