To Whom It May Concern:
I recently had occasion to purchase some anti-meth posters from Lyndon
Hart. I was very pleased with the message the posters convey.
Mr. Hart is a member of the Dakota Sioux nation and
is a very dedicated and committed individual in the education of the Native American youth regarding the dangers of substance
abuse.
Substance abuse
is non-discriminatory. It impacts all ethnic and socio-economic groups. It has reached epidemic proportions in
this country. These posters should be available to all youth.
The posters have generated a very positive response
in New Mexico. I personally, have distributed the posters to several Lodges and agencies that deal with young people. The
Native-American community is excited that these posters are available as another form of awareness for their people.
I am happy to report that I have received numerous requests from pueblo personnel for them.
I strongly recommend that
all Elks Lodges are aware of these posters and are available for purchase.
Sincerely,
Max
Otero, Chairman
Drug Awareness Program
New Mexico Elks Association
Lynn:
I want to express my gratitude for the tremendous campaign against Meth that you and No Xcuses
None! have begun. Your help in this battle should spur on others in this challenging but crucial cause. Throughout Indian
Country, meth has taken a devastating toll on the lives of meth users, their families, and friends.
I am convinced that
the No Xcuses None! is making a real difference in the lives of our people. By turning the tide in the battle
against meth, you are helping spread peace and long life throughout Indian Country.
All the best to you,
Tex Hall, Chairman, The Inter-Tribal Economic Alliance

About the owner:
Lynn “Sota” Hart was born to a Yankton Sioux
mother and Black father. He was placed in a foster home at 3 days old then adopted at age 13. After graduation
from high school, he joined the U.S. Marines. While in the Marines, he took up rodeo bull riding as a hobby. After his
honorable discharge, he was determined to be a “Professional cowboy.” He then became a ranch hand, rodeo bullfighter
in the PRCA,AIRA and the Bill Pickett rodeo associations,he appeared in two movies, HBO’s “The Cherokee Kid”
with Sinbad and Burt Reynolds, and TNT’s “Buffalo Soldier” with Danny Glover as a stuntman and just finished
portraying "York" Captain Clark's slave with the national re-enactment of the Lewis and Clark expedition 2004-2007.
In 1990, South Dakota was one of four states in the union that had not voted Martin Luther King's birthday as a national
holiday. When he learned of a hearing scheduled to debate this issue, he felt he had to testify. Hart's emotional
plea at the hearing changed allot of hearts and minds that day and the following day it passed, Lynn allways says "that
it wasn't him, he just got in the way!". For his testimony, Hart received the "Making of King Holiday,"
Jan 13, 1993 award presented by Stevie Wonder on behalf of the MLK Federal Holiday Commissionin in Atlanta,Ga. One person
can make a difference when he or she stands up for what they believe.
He is a natural teacher and spokesperson and currently try to help fight Meth in Indian country he has designed
these ten anti meth posters for Indian country below.
When he testified to make the Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday a state
holiday he also established America's first and only Native American day, my higher power was involed he
said:. "We have no Columbus day in South Dakota he said, It hasn't been recognized since 1990 and never
will be either!".

Hello!
I'm a former state-certified chemical dependency counselor, Ive been helping Lynn with his project. I knows the effects
of meth first-hand — My daughter is a recovering addict. In making posters and starting projects specifically relevant
to Indian Country might help the battle against meth. “It’s not going to be a cure-all, “(but we need to
use) whatever Indian people can identify with.”
