The Lakota Indian people view the Black Hills as sacred Indian territory, and they were not happy when sculptor Gutzon Borglum completed his mammoth sculpture depicting four U.S. presidents on Mount Rushmore, right in the middle of their revered Black Hills.
Lakoti uzskata Melnos kalnus par svētu indiāņu zemi, un viņi bija neapmierināti, ka tieši tur, Rašmora kalnā, tēlnieks Gatsons Borglums bija izkalis gigantiskos četru ASV prezidentu tēlus.
