Thunder Valley is a Lakota founded and managed non-profit at Pine Ridge that promotes economic independence through traditional values. They are beginning construction this summer on one of the largest housing developments in the modern history of the reservation. Nick Tilsen, the executive director, is one of my best friends at Pine Ridge and a leading character in my book. The following link will give you a GREAT glimpse of life at Pine Ridge and the amazing spirit of the people who live there!
