PINE RIDGE, S.D., Dec. 30, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Vowing "we will live up to our obligation once again and be idle no more," Oglala Lakota Women and allies from the Deep Green Resistance will blockade the border of Pine Ridge and Whiteclay, Nebraska to prevent alcohol from entering the Pine Ridge Reservation where alcohol sales, possession and consumption are illegal, according to Alcohol Justice. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110727/DC41105LOGO ) "We do this to save the lives of our relatives who cannot defend themselves against the harms of alcohol due to the inability of the state of Nebraska to properly police illegal retailer alcohol sales and activities in the town of Whiteclay," stated activist Olowan Martinez. "We do this to prevent abuses of all forms from reaching into our sacred homes and to show our future generations how to protect our homeland by any means necessary!"
