ICE Detains Oglala Sioux Members at Fort Snelling, Echoing 1862 Indigenous Camp History
TL;DR
Four Oglala Sioux Tribe members were swept up by ICE, with three remaining jailed at a facility at Fort Snelling in Minnesota, a site tied to the 1862 U.S.-Dakota War where Indigenous detainees suffered and many died; the report frames these detentions as part of ICE’s broader campaign of racial profiling against nonimmigrants.
