Indian Rally Turns Violent

On S. Dakota-Nebraska Border

PINE RIDGE, S.D. -- A demonstration by American Indian activists turned
violent yesterday as people ransacked a store and set fires in Whiteclay,
Neb., threw rocks at police and roughed up two photographers.

The four-hour American Indian Movement rally started peacefully in Pine
Ridge and ended with a two-mile walk to Whiteclay, where as many as 60
people stormed a market and threw soft drinks, cigarettes and other
merchandise onto the street. Two fires were set in the store but were
quickly extinguished.

Stores in Whiteclay, population 22, sell $3 million worth of beer a year.
Most of the sales are to Indians from Pine Ridge, who cannot legally drink
on the reservation. Reservation residents have long complained of shoddy
treatment from business owners and law enforcement in Whiteclay.

At the rally, three of the nation's best-known American Indian activists
said they intend to respond to racial tensions along the South
Dakota-Nebraska border -- including taking back part of northern Nebraska
that is legally part of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.

Russell Means, Dennis Banks and Clyde Bellecourt said the rally was aimed at
calling attention to anti-Indian prejudice and racism that they allege have
contributed to the unsolved slayings of Indians along the state line.
