Mount Rushmore was promised to the Lakota Sioux under treaty by the US government. Settlers found gold there, and then the government illegally seized the land promised to the Sioux. Initially the carvings were to feature prominent Native figures but the sculptor chose to instead feature US Presidents that were direct opponents of American Indians. The Supreme Court has since awarded the Lakota Sioux compensation which has risen to over $1 billion, however they have refused outright and are still demanding it's return as the lawful owners. Standing on business.

aside from being "promised" or granted in a treaty, along with all of the black hills, it's sacred land to the Lakota. It was known as the 6 Grandfathers, representing the six directions, north, south, east, west, up in the father heaven, down with mother earth.

True true. "Promised" in the sense that the US government had promised not to take their land. Poor verbiage on my part. But yes, in addition to stealing the land outright, the government also desecrated it with the faces of the literal oppressors of the people the land is sacred to. I didn't know the 6 Grandfathers part, that's interesting, thank you

Ronnie's no-comply flip he does in Menikmati broke my brain as a child, and I still can't quite wrap my head around it.

Mine was his fakie big 540 flip (or at least it looked 540 to me) that caused severe cognitive dissonance.
