Bio: Richie Richards, 43, Oglala Sioux Tribe. I grew up on and off the reservations of South Dakota with a majority of my time spent in Rapid City. I left SD and moved to Washington State and eventually to the San Francisco Bay Area, where I attended the University of California, Berkeley to study Native American Studies. I recently moved back to Rapid City where I’ve been working as a journalist for Native Sun News Today newspaper and host of the Oyate Today television show.
