The Lakota
These indigenous nations of the Northern Plains are a "confederacy known historically as the Oceti Sakowin, the Seven Fires. Collectively referred to as the Sioux, this confederacy includes four Santee divisions, the two Yankton and Yanktonai divisions, and the Lakota (Teton) as the seventh division. The Lakota group is, in turn, made up of seven groups: the Oglala, Sicangu (BrulÈ), Miniconjou, Oohenumpa (Two Kettle), Itazipco (Sans Arcs, or No Bows), Sihasapa (Blackfoot), and Hunkpapa." Kevin Locke is a member of the Hunkpapa Lakota, Sitting Bull's people.
