Roadblock erected at Whiteclay in protest of liquor sales

A group of protesters erected a roadblock at Whiteclay, Nebraska, in protest of liquor sales in the border town.

Bryan Brewer, the president of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, said the roadblock went up yesterday. It wasn't reported if it's still there.

The Pine Ridge Reservation is dry but tribal members can travel a few miles to Whiteclay to buy beer. Brewer himself has joined protests against the sale of liquor there.
