Winona LaDuke to run for White Earth chair

Well known Native American activist Winona LaDuke is planning to run for chair of the White Earth Reservation.

LaDuke, executive director of the Native American environmental group Honor the Earth, confirmed her plans in an email Tuesday. "Basically I want to put my money where my mouth is," she wrote, "I think we can make a great future for White Earth."

The office is up for election in June 2016, but could open earlier.
