We are committed to the rigorous protection of our land, heritage, and future from outside influence and legal malpractice. This section serves as the public record and primary repository for the ongoing investigation into the O’Bryan Trust and documented AIPRA (American Indian Probate Reform Act) violations. Our work involves direct federal inquiry and sworn affidavits of fact to ensure that trust lands remain a secure foundation for our descendants, free from predatory interference.
True independence begins with the ability to nourish our own people. The Aaniiih/Nakoda Sustainable Food, Health, and Environmental Program is a comprehensive blueprint for community self-reliance. By integrating traditional nutritional wisdom with modern sustainable supply chains and community kitchen models, we are building a resilient local economy. This program is more than a plan; it is a movement toward health, environmental stewardship, and total independence from outside systems.
Indian land is a historical right and a spiritual anchor, far exceeding its status as a mere legal asset. This section documents the enduring legacy of my grandfather’s land and our current legal battle for the preservation of family land and water rights. Through historical land claims and water rights preservation efforts, we are fighting to restore the integrity of the O’Bryan Ranch and its vital cultural value to the Aaniiih people.
Storytelling is a powerful tool for justice and visual experience is at the heart of the human journey. White Clay Films showcases our work in investigative journalism, documentaries, and cinematic storytelling. From projects like “White Reservation” to our latest documentary shorts, we use the lens to shed light on truth, engage the global media, and document the lived realities of our community and our heritage.
The heart of our mission is the restoration of birthrights for the next generation. We are dedicated to ensuring that Aaniiih children—including my own sons, Hawk and Onyx—remain connected to their native relatives and the ancestral lands they are destined to inherit. Our family has held a relationship with this region for over a thousand years; we are here to ensure that legacy remains unbroken, providing a foundation of authenticity, safety, and cultural identity for those who follow.
