WHITECLAY, Nebraska, 28 de febrero de 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- Alcohol Justice informa que la Nación Oglala Lakota celebra su 41º Evento Anual del Día de la Liberación de la Ocupación de Wounded Knee.  El evento es una oportunidad para educar y descolonizar a las futuras generaciones por medio de la caminata en las cuatro direcciones, enseñanzas orales, música y principalmente, expresando las verdades acerca de la opresión que continúa afectando a la Nación Oglala Lakota.

"A raíz de la invasión de tierras nativas, nuestra identidad como los primeros seres humanos en este lugar fue distorsionada y nos vimos obligados a aceptar una posición inferior a la humana. No olvidemos la peor de las tácticas del opresor, el alcoholismo", afirmó el activista Olowan Martinez.  "¡El Día de la Liberación representa que la era del indio embriagado pasivo quedó en el pasado!  Teniendo verdadera fe en nuestra manera de vivir, vemos hoy en 2014 que toda acción que tomemos debe beneficiar a cinco generaciones futuras. Tenemos tantos familiares sobrios fuertes que la única opción es continuar sanando. Ya no ocultamos nuestra espiritualidad; ya no caminamos avergonzados de quienes somos.  Hoy está tomando lugar un escape de la esclavitud del alcohol y muy pronto la mente de los Oglala Lakota también será liberada", añadió Martínez.

Durante el año pasado se intensificó la tensión entre los activistas de Pine Ridge, los propietarios de licorerías de Whiteclay y el distribuidor de cerveza Pivo Anheuser-Busch.  En varias oportunidades los activistas bloquearon con éxito la entrega de la cerveza Budweiser a las licorerías locales en Whiteclay, que representa el 80% de las marcas de cerveza de contrabando en Pine Ridge. Los propietarios de los establecimientos respondieron armando a los clientes ebrios con palos y fuegos artificiales y ofreciéndoles compensación financiera para confrontar a los activistas.  Las fuerzas del cumplimiento de la ley utilizaron el dinero de los contribuidores para escoltar a los camiones con cerveza hacia Whiteclay, lo que permitió que continúe el contrabando ilegal.  

Gracias al creciente activismo, las ventas de cerveza en Whiteclay han disminuido por cuarto año consecutivo, según la Comisión de Control de Licores en Nebraska. Los activistas alegan que las actividades ilegales y el contrabando de alcohol no se han detenido en Whiteclay, Nebraska, debido a las fuertes contribuciones financieras a los legisladores en Nebraska por parte de Anheuser-Busch, los distribuidores de alcohol y las  asociaciones comerciales de alcohol.

Las contribuciones financieras políticas de Big Alcohol incluyen:

  • $96,000 al gobernador de Nebraska, Dave Heineman  (siendo la industria de alcohol uno de sus mayores donantes)
  • $86,000 al procurador general estatal de Nebraska, Jon Bruning (desde 2008)
  • $135,000 a los candidatos a cargos estatales de Nebraska en 2010 (según el Institute on Money in State Politics)

Qué:  41º Evento Anual del Día de la Liberación de la Ocupación de Wounded Knee de Independencia de la Nación Oglala  
Cuándo:  1 y 2 de marzo de 2014, a las 10 a.m.  
Dónde:   Pahin Sinte Owayawa Porcupine, SD – Pine Ridge Homeland
Por qué:

  • El 25% de los jóvenes de la Reservación de Pine Ridge padecen de trastorno de espectro alcohólico fetal
  • 2/3 de los adultos de la Reservación de Pine Ridge sufren de alcoholismo
  • El 75 por ciento de la cerveza de contrabando en Whiteclay, viene del distribuidor Pivo Anheuser-Busch localizado en Scottsbluff, Nebraska
  • Para detener las actividades ilegales de alcohol en Whiteclay, Nebraska tales como:
    • La participación de los minoristas en el contrabando de alcohol hacia la Reservación de Pine Ridge
    • El intercambio de alcohol por sexo
    • El deambular en los locales de los detallistas de alcohol con envases abiertos 
    • La incapacidad de la Comisión de Licores de Nebraska de detener las actividades ilegales del comercio minorista 
    • Los recientes homicidios y la violencia física
    • La venta de alcohol a menores
    • La venta de alcohol a personas embriagadas
