Alex White Plume was born on the Pine Ridge Reservation and served as Vice-President and then President of the Oglala Sioux Nation during 2004 to 2006. He has appeared in documentaries and films about Pine Ridge and was referred to by Winona LaDuke as the hemperer for his dedication and passion to using the crop to elevate the status of the Oglala Sioux. From 2000 to 2002, White Plume earned unwanted publicity when United States federal drug agents raided his farm and tried to destroy his crop of industrial hemp before it could be harvested.
