About the Owner

 

Note from Megan L. Schnitker, owner and founder of Lakota Made LLC

Mitakuye, čaƞte’ wašte’ nape čiyuzapi kšto. Ta Wa Paha Ota Wiƞ emakiyapi kšto, emataƞhaƞ Ta Asaƞpi Oyaƞke kšto.

My relatives, I greet you with a good heart and a hand shake. My name is Many War Bonnets Woman. I am from Milks Camp, South Dakota. (only direct family members can use my Lakota name)

I grew up in South Central South Dakota and spent a majority of my life living in South Dakota. My parents are Charles Wayne and Marla Bull Bear. My parents have always been a strong foundation for me, providing me with Lakota teachings and traditions growing up. They both worked and went to school to provide for myself and my younger brothers. My mom has had her own grassroots 501c3 for as long as I can remember. My dad was a tribal game warden, a tribal police officer and town officer for Winner Police Department.

My dad is Nača Chief Bull Bear of the Kiyaksa Band of Oglalla’s of Pine Ridge, South Dakota. Dad comes from a long line of traditional spiritual leaders and teachers. I am proud and humbled to be a part of a traditional family.
