The Battle of the Black Hills

A large new Indian reservation in Colorado has caused a groundswell of anti-Indian sentiment resulting in a road-side bombing in Denver. Professor Wes Powell and his wife, beautiful Cheyenne chief Silver Whitehorse, are called upon again to protect a heritage. At stake is a 140-year-old court battle for tribes surrounding the sacred Pahá Sápa (the Black Hills of South Dakota). A growing unlawful militia, gun rights activists, and a slightly-fading movie star stand in their way. It’s brawn versus brains in a modern “cowboys versus Indians” struggle, filled with Gatling guns and bows and arrows. Before the Native Americans can succeed, heroes must admit they’re villains, and villains have an opportunity to become heroes in the second most important battle in U.S. history.
