Travel well Tom Poor Bear. One of the last from a time where they had to pick up arms against the US government. That had to fight for our people in an unjust system. A wild Oglala, back with the ancestors, greeted by my dad and the other warriors he stood with. pic.twitter.com/ebJoZzHWlB

Tom Poor Bear passed away today. He got @BarackObama attention on KXL early on in fight when he and Jen Baker snuck a banner in and raised it during the speech. He never stopped fighting.
