Rapid City's McKie Group fires racist

The recent wildfire at Mato Paha (Bear Butte) was hardly the first and most certainly won't be the last.
A McKie Ford Lincoln employee accused of making discriminatory remarks toward Native Americans has been fired. Steve Jensen reportedly made the comments in response to this weekend's Bear Butte State Park fire during a live Facebook video. McKie took personal responsibility for the incident and made it clear that the company has zero tolerance for discrimination. He said employees will undergo further training "to prevent incidents like this from happening in the future."

It's time for the State of South Dakota to abandon Bear Butte State Park that it claimed through colonization and remand it to the tribes for governance so they can restore its name to Mato Paha and for the US Park Service to add the name Mahto Tipila to Devils Tower National Monument.
