For over a century, the connection between Ernie LaPointe and Toro Sittingado was defended by the oral memory of his family and his people. A tiny six-centimeter strand of hair, preserved for decades, held the key to the reunion between the past and the present.
After fourteen years of research, a scientific team managed to extract — for the first time — usable DNA from that “extremely degraded” hair. When compared to Ernie LaPointe's samples, the result was clear and irreversible: the genetic link proved what Lakota tradition had never forgotten.
It wasn't just a triumph of science.
It was an act of historic justice: tangible evidence that the voice of the ancestors is still alive in the blood and memory of those who walk today.
The spirit of a leader who defended his land, his people and his truth, now also has a recognized heir to the world.
History is not written only in books, but in the genes and in the hearts of those who hold it.

He walked into an awards ceremony wearing two things that rarely share the same stage: a black tuxedo and a traditional Native headdress.
It was more than fashion.
It was a statement.
Rodney Arnold Grant, born in 1959, grew up on the Omaha Reservation in Nebraska.
Abandoned at birth, he was raised by his grandparents.
From the very beginning, his life was about survival and identity.
In 1990, he became known worldwide as Wind In His Hair in Dances with Wolves.
His fierce presence on screen gave voice to Native characters too often misrepresented in Hollywood.
One year later, in 1991, he portrayed Crazy Horse in Son of the Morning Star.
But Grant’s legacy is not only in film.
He dedicated himself to Native youth, serving on the Boys and Girls Clubs of America’s Native American Advisory Board.
He carried his culture with him into every space—whether on a movie set, in a community meeting, or at a red-carpet event.
That night at the awards ceremony, the clash of tuxedo and headdress told a larger story.
A man shaped by two worlds.
An artist, a father, and a reminder that heritage is not something you leave at the door.
Rodney Arnold Grant showed that knowing who you are—and where you come from—can be the most powerful role of all.
Had you heard his story before?
