00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:01.880
You girls ready?

00:00:02.240 --> 00:00:02.720
Yeah.

00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:16.600
Careful, you girls. Slow down.

00:00:18.240 --> 00:00:18.840
Careful.

00:00:24.520 --> 00:00:26.960
Shayla, you will find one, I believe in it.

00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:29.720
Me too! I believe in you!

00:00:31.720 --> 00:00:33.080
You girls, keep looking!

00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:34.760
You guys gotta believe...

00:00:35.400 --> 00:00:36.280
I found one!

00:00:36.800 --> 00:00:37.360
You found one

00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:38.480
Yeah.

00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:40.480
Oh, she found one!

00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:43.280
Dang, that one's a nice one!

00:00:44.040 --> 00:00:46.680
Dang, Waŋblí waŋkiya wanted to give it to you.

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:49.320
That's many blessings for you, my girl.

00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:53.080
Thank you! For shedding this for me.

00:00:54.160 --> 00:00:55.720
Alright, you girls, round it up, round it up!

00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:59.920
Before we leave I want you
guys to grab some tobacco.

00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:02.760
And then I'm gonna say a prayer, k?

00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:06.280
Wakȟáŋ Tȟáŋka, Tȟuŋkášila, Até Waŋtȟáŋka

00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:09.560
Great Grandfather, Great Spirit, Great Creator,

00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:13.200
I ask for healing for each one of these
girls, Tȟuŋkášila,

00:01:13.800 --> 00:01:15.840
cuz we're all hurting, and
we're all here for a reason, Tȟáŋkala.

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:19.040
I  ask that you give us the strength to be strong

00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:21.760
and give us the tools to be
on that Red Road, Tȟáŋkala.

00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:24.240
Mitákuye oyásʼiŋ.
[All our relations.]

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:30.800
Oh there he is, there he is,
there he is, right there!

00:01:31.520 --> 00:01:32.280
There he is!

00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:35.560
That means good luck, baby!

00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:38.240
Something good's gonna happen.
I just know it.

00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:06.000
Time!

00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.680
Time. There you go, relax.
Give yourself about 30 seconds.

00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:14.000
Relax, relax, relax.

00:02:15.160 --> 00:02:17.880
Good. Always keep that tucked in,
ok, keep it right here.

00:02:18.040 --> 00:02:21.680
When you’re throwing a punch, all that
 energy transfers right in the ball of the fist.

00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.040
The boxing, I think is natural.

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:28.120
You're fighting a lot more on the mental
part than you are physical.

00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.280
Let's start to build on that confidence.

00:02:34.160 --> 00:02:35.960
Ok, you can do it, you can get it done.

00:02:37.720 --> 00:02:40.560
Hey don't don't shake your head.
I'll kick you out of my gym.

00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:42.120
You gotta be here.

00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:45.120
You got no control over anything else
other than where you're at right now.

00:02:47.920 --> 00:02:48.640
Ok?

00:02:48.760 --> 00:02:51.120
I just keep thinking that

00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:54.680
if Cheryl can't do this, then I can't do it.

00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:57.520
One, you can’t be Cheryl, you can’t be anybody else.

00:02:58.600 --> 00:03:00.400
Ok? Control what you can control.

00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:02.360
And right now you're here.

00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.520
You want different you gotta do it yourself.

00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:07.400
C'mon. Let's get a few here.

00:03:08.320 --> 00:03:09.040
Here we go, one, two.

00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:10.120
One, two

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:11.600
One, two.

00:03:12.620 --> 00:03:13.120
One, two.

00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:14.740
One, two.

00:03:15.660 --> 00:03:16.740
Good. One, two.

00:03:17.020 --> 00:03:19.020
[from laptop: Fighting out of the city of
Lower Brule, South Dakota

00:03:19.020 --> 00:03:23.080
she is our current 2009 Queen
of the Hill Women's Champion

00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:26.240
Let's give a nice round of applause for Cheryl Ziegler!"

00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:28.760
[crowd cheers]

00:03:28.760 --> 00:03:31.200
Me and Cheryl grew up together as sisters.

00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:34.040
We call each other sisters because

00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:37.380
in Lakota way we call our
cousins brother and sister.

00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:39.520
[children's laughter]

00:03:39.660 --> 00:03:42.740
I didn't really have someone to look
up to, so I looked up to her.

00:03:44.200 --> 00:03:46.200
We’d spend every day with each other.

00:03:47.140 --> 00:03:49.620
When we’d have hard times we’d go to the river.

00:03:50.700 --> 00:03:51.600
And forget everything.

00:03:52.220 --> 00:03:53.820
She was my other half.

00:03:59.580 --> 00:04:02.060
I started boxing club in memory of
Cheryl Ziegler.

00:04:02.660 --> 00:04:06.180
She's the one that inspired me to do boxing,
she's one that motivated me to do boxing.

00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.320
so I’m doing this for in memory of her.

00:04:08.880 --> 00:04:10.460
I'm glad you guys are here with me.

00:04:11.440 --> 00:04:13.440
So, let’s just work together. We’re all sisters.

00:04:14.740 --> 00:04:17.180
The boxing team is for people that
wants to be a part of something.

00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:21.120
So we don’t do bad things during the summer

00:04:21.420 --> 00:04:26.320
like burn down houses like all the other
kids around here and drink and smoke.

00:04:28.340 --> 00:04:33.760
We're like a traveling team, and my
sister Raelynn is the boxing team manager.

00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:40.280
It's a really cool experience for the girls
that wants to be a part of something.

00:04:41.500 --> 00:04:43.140
[off camera] You said that twice.

00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:49.340
Then Thursday, what should we do, start sparring?

00:04:49.440 --> 00:04:50.400
Yeah!

00:04:50.520 --> 00:04:54.940
Alright, Friday's was our time to get to know
each other bond with each other.

00:04:54.940 --> 00:04:57.240
So that's, you know, sister time -
put sister time.

00:04:57.920 --> 00:04:59.180
And now we gotta train.

00:04:59.320 --> 00:05:00.020
Geez.

00:05:01.980 --> 00:05:03.360
Yeah, we gotta actually work.

00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:04.560
Two miles.

00:05:12.200 --> 00:05:13.100
Let's go, grandma!

00:05:14.980 --> 00:05:17.020
Let's do some ladders, ready?
We'll do ten ladders.

00:05:17.020 --> 00:05:18.340
Gee!
What? No, not ten!

00:05:18.500 --> 00:05:19.260
Five.

00:05:19.700 --> 00:05:22.260
No! Only Jada can do five!

00:05:26.660 --> 00:05:27.940
When I run,

00:05:29.660 --> 00:05:30.700
it makes me happy.

00:05:41.760 --> 00:05:43.640
I ran from the cops one time.

00:05:45.220 --> 00:05:47.220
That’s fun, that’s exciting.

00:05:49.740 --> 00:05:52.400
I don’t want kids to do that when I’m older.

00:05:54.840 --> 00:05:57.620
I want people to live a better life than what I’m living.

00:05:59.660 --> 00:06:01.020
Like way better.

00:06:02.620 --> 00:06:03.560
Let's shadow box.
Do you know how to shadow box?

00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:06.800
You wanna guard your jaw.

00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:12.740
When you reach out....

00:06:12.740 --> 00:06:14.740
[interview] I wanted to be on the boxing team because

00:06:15.180 --> 00:06:18.860
it just feels good to stand up for our tribe,

00:06:18.860 --> 00:06:21.940
our reservation, our people.

00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:30.140
I see their pain and I see
what they're going through

00:06:30.140 --> 00:06:31.500
because I used to be in their position

00:06:33.200 --> 00:06:35.120
I just want to let them know that
they're not alone.

00:06:35.760 --> 00:06:37.520
That they are worth something.

00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:51.520
This is um...
what's today

00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:57.120
This is April 15th.

00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:00.320
I'm Cheryl Ziegler Fairbanks,

00:07:00.640 --> 00:07:06.000
and this is my mom, Pam Johnson.

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:15.280
And we're having a mother
and daughter hike adventure.

00:07:15.840 --> 00:07:19.360
Ina, [mom], you're supposed to take
a picture of me with my muscles.

00:07:26.880 --> 00:07:29.760
This grey house coming up over here with the flagpole,

00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.880
that's where she committed suicide.

00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:47.360
It's just really scary because all these people
 are using drugs and then it leads to suicide.

00:07:50.960 --> 00:07:53.440
My first time ever getting high,
I remember it like it was yesterday.

00:07:56.560 --> 00:08:00.080
Cheryl got mad, but she couldn't stop me
because she was doing it too.

00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:05.760
It was my first time ever seeing
meth and people using it.

00:08:06.880 --> 00:08:11.280
It's the only way  knew to cope with my feelings-
just doing drugs and alcohol and fighting.

00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:19.840
Fighting someone in the street you still feel angry.

00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:23.360
A boxing match, you feel like you worked hard for that fight

00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:25.840
and it makes you feel like you have a future.

00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:31.520
And that's why this is something that I really
want to do for myself and for the girls.

00:08:41.280 --> 00:08:43.520
I don't want to hear no female arguing - go!

00:08:43.680 --> 00:08:46.160
This won't put weight on 'em.

00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:47.440
It's not heavy.

00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:52.960
Good that means you can take a
punch!

00:08:53.680 --> 00:08:55.040
Life on the road!

00:08:56.160 --> 00:08:58.160
Cheryl, we're having fun, girl.

00:08:58.160 --> 00:08:59.680
Sure wish you were here, man.

00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:02.680
Hi, we're from Lower Brule.

00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:04.880
What's your name?

00:09:04.880 --> 00:09:05.920
Shaionna Grass Rope.

00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:13.640
You ready?

00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:16.120
Yeah. I hope she's not bigger than me.

00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:19.280
If she’s bigger than you just go for the
stomach and under here, ok? Good?

00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:23.000
Just remember who's watching you.

00:09:24.520 --> 00:09:26.520
Cheryl. There's your brother, there's your grandma.

00:09:26.680 --> 00:09:27.800
You know all those people are watching you.

00:09:27.880 --> 00:09:29.200
Stay strong for them.

00:09:29.280 --> 00:09:30.200
[bell rings]

00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:31.000
Box!

00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:40.240
[crowd cheers ]

00:09:40.800 --> 00:09:42.360
Punch straight!

00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:44.080
Keep going!

00:09:46.520 --> 00:09:47.360
[bell rings]

00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:48.760
Time! Time!

00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:56.280
Shilea Grass Rope!

00:09:56.280 --> 00:09:59.240
Our own Lower Brule Shiley won!
She won her match, man!

00:10:00.040 --> 00:10:06.400
[announcer:] Bout number 10 is between
Cheyanne Grey Grass and Shaionna Grass Rope.

00:10:22.400 --> 00:10:24.480
[Raven] Come on now, come on now keep it clean.

00:10:53.280 --> 00:10:58.080
Come here you girl you. She's proud
of you man, I know she is.

00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:06.400
She ain't here no more but... She's got us.

00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:11.200
[Shaionna] Cheryl,  I miss you so much.

00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:22.560
Yeah it still smells good, but it just smells like it's been warming...

00:11:22.560 --> 00:11:24.000
Eww! That is gross.

00:11:25.920 --> 00:11:27.840
Fine I'll just give her warmed up water

00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:31.360
You're ok, baby!

00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:33.920
I wonder how much the cat food is.

00:11:36.160 --> 00:11:37.440
[Kitten meows]

00:11:38.400 --> 00:11:41.440
Mommy got you some water!

00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:45.760
Oh gee, baby.
Here, you want some water?

00:11:50.400 --> 00:11:52.800
Do you guys have any milk?
- Yeah

00:11:52.800 --> 00:11:54.160
Can you get me some?

00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:01.360
[Shilea] Did you know dogs have seven lives?
[Kitten meows]

00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:03.600
I thought cats had nine?

00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:05.600
Right?

00:12:30.560 --> 00:12:33.440
I got up this morning and I prayed.

00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:36.640
After I started praying, thinking like that,

00:12:36.640 --> 00:12:38.600
then my pain kind of went away.

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:40.600
Mind over matter.

00:12:44.160 --> 00:12:45.920
[Nurse] How's the pain today?

00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:49.480
[Nurse] Four? Four in the leg?
Took something before you came?

00:12:49.520 --> 00:12:50.240
[Davita] M-hmm

00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:04.000
My life was very...very tough.

00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:08.040
I didn't have no one to go to.

00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:12.680
So if I wasn't working then I would go
drink.

00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.640
My kids, that's what they remember.

00:13:17.880 --> 00:13:19.480
Then I got sick.

00:13:20.760 --> 00:13:22.360
I have diabetes.

00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:25.800
I got a blood  disorder called calciphylaxis.

00:13:26.560 --> 00:13:30.080
People with calciphylaxis live for six [months] to a year.

00:13:30.760 --> 00:13:32.840
And I'm going on a two year mark.

00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:36.760
I fight that pain every
day because I want to be with my kids.

00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:45.240
You're scaring me Shaionna!

00:13:45.560 --> 00:13:47.560
[Shaionna] Ok I'll back it up.

00:13:55.640 --> 00:14:00.520
I try to make up for what I did, but it
feels like I'm running out of time.

00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:10.360
[Shaionna] What's one thing you remember about Cheryl?

00:14:11.880 --> 00:14:16.320
[Shilea] I remember one thing about Cheryl is whenever you used to take me over there with you

00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:19.600
and you guys just sat down and talked mostly.

00:14:20.800 --> 00:14:23.440
People don't even want to sit down visit and talk to you.

00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:25.760
Either want to get high or drink.

00:14:26.400 --> 00:14:31.200
That's the only time they ever want to sit down or, you know, actually be a friend.

00:14:34.680 --> 00:14:36.720
You want to have a contest?

00:14:36.760 --> 00:14:39.600
[Shilea] What do you mean? You have way more than me!

00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:40.520
Ready, set, go!

00:14:40.520 --> 00:14:41.680
Shit.

00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:50.200
[Shilea] We talk about suicide when
someone dies.

00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:56.480
But we never talk about, like, wanting to do it.

00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:04.160
My brother actually died from a suicide.

00:15:05.920 --> 00:15:11.120
I really know the whole story,
but we never talk about it.

00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.200
[Raelynn] We named this team Akicita, which is 'warrior' in Lakota

00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:45.920
The big reason we are typing this letter is we need help for

00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.480
all of us to have [typing]

00:15:50.880 --> 00:15:52.880
the gear we need.

00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:56.160
This is for every kid out there who is
struggling to be happy.

00:16:01.680 --> 00:16:05.000
[Girl's voice] Does it matter how it has to be like balled?

00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:06.000
No.

00:16:06.640 --> 00:16:10.080
These things are so hard to make cause they're really sticky.

00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:11.800
You are what you eat.

00:16:11.800 --> 00:16:14.120
And I'm a nice piece of fry bread.

00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:17.720
Oh look, I'm making the ears!

00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.000
Now that looks like something!

00:16:21.880 --> 00:16:24.520
[Rianna] Lord Jesus, I want to pray for the youth boxing team so that...

00:16:24.800 --> 00:16:28.960
no more girls and people
will feel left out, and

00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:31.120
hopefully everything will go good. Amen.

00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:40.040
[Girls chatter]

00:16:40.040 --> 00:16:41.560
You guys going to the pow wow?

00:16:41.560 --> 00:16:43.560
Yes!

00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.760
Woo!

00:16:53.040 --> 00:16:57.520
[Announcer] Junior Miss Kul Wicasa: Josette Pretty Sounding Flute.

00:16:57.640 --> 00:16:59.640
[Crowd cheering]

00:16:59.640 --> 00:17:01.640
Miss Kul Wicasa.

00:17:02.760 --> 00:17:04.920
Yaaas!

00:17:05.840 --> 00:17:10.640
[Drumming and singing]

00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:24.440
[Shaionna] I love pow wow.

00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:28.360
When I watch them dance and
hear that drum beat,

00:17:28.560 --> 00:17:32.320
it just reminds me who I am and where I come from.

00:17:36.120 --> 00:17:38.120
Jingle dress dancing

00:17:38.120 --> 00:17:39.880
it was used to be a healing ceremony.

00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:44.960
All your prayers- the jingles
that you put on your dress- go up in the sky,

00:17:45.280 --> 00:17:48.800
and waŋblí - the eagle- he would take 'em and send 'em to Tȟuŋkášila.

00:17:52.120 --> 00:17:58.720
[Drumming and singing]

00:18:00.280 --> 00:18:03.240
[Davita] I always dreamt of making her a nice dress.

00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:06.320
Her sleeves were ruffled out

00:18:06.320 --> 00:18:11.000
but then they'd have like five roses you know representing her brother and sisters.

00:18:14.560 --> 00:18:16.480
I dreamt of that dress.

00:18:18.520 --> 00:18:21.400
I dreamt of her dancing in it.

00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:25.200
[Singing]

00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.840
[Shaionna gasps] It is, too! Oh my gosh!

00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:40.400
Oh my gosh, look at that! [Screams]

00:18:42.040 --> 00:18:44.560
Pink ones! We got pink ones!

00:18:46.120 --> 00:18:48.600
Oh my god, I already feel like a champ!

00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:55.200
The team's gonna look beast!

00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:57.120
I really wanna go to my fight.

00:18:57.120 --> 00:18:58.960
I gotta call my mom and...

00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:04.840
[Phone ringing]

00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:06.680
[Shaionna on the phone]
We got our boxing trunks.

00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:08.440
[Davita on the phone] Did you? Right on, Shaionna!

00:19:08.520 --> 00:19:09.880
[Shaionna]
Just trying to find some help

00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:11.920
'cause I wanna go to this fight really bad.

00:19:12.840 --> 00:19:14.600
What's Grandpa Marlow's number?

00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:16.840
[Shaionna sighs]

00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:20.120
Do you know Grandma Sue's number?

00:19:23.840 --> 00:19:25.800
Well what about Josette, would  she have any gas money?

00:19:25.800 --> 00:19:27.800
She don't - she didn't make that much this week.

00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:44.240
[Shaionna] Every day is a battle for me.

00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:46.360
Every day it's something.

00:19:52.280 --> 00:19:55.320
[Shaionna] I just feel like giving up sometimes.

00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:12.760
[Raelynn] Whatever happened to our schedule?

00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:15.600
We need to start traning.

00:20:17.280 --> 00:20:18.800
I feel like giving up.

00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:20.640
No!

00:20:21.600 --> 00:20:23.200
We made it this far.

00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:26.400
We made it this far and we ain't get anywhere.

00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:29.040
Yeah we are!
We actually are.

00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:31.520
[Shilea] We actually get to our boxing matches.

00:20:31.520 --> 00:20:32.800
We actually got some somewhere.

00:20:33.280 --> 00:20:37.680
You just need to get back on track and rest.

00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:40.160
And probably take some warm showers.

00:20:40.560 --> 00:20:42.320
[Girls] And when you get better,

00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:45.040
you won't be saying that you feel like giving up.

00:20:46.320 --> 00:20:49.840
But I'm never gonna get better, for real man.

00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:51.840
[Shilea] Yes you will. You'll see.

00:20:54.560 --> 00:20:55.840
[Raven] I want to talk to you real quick.

00:20:55.840 --> 00:20:59.520
The last thing Cheryl would want you to do is to give up.

00:21:01.120 --> 00:21:03.360
Part of your healing is those kids.

00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:07.040
They don't need you to quit.

00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:10.400
They need you to power through it.

00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:14.560
And don't use Cheryl's being gone as a reason not to.

00:21:15.520 --> 00:21:18.400
You can't give up to the first rough
patch you run into.

00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:23.200
Because if that's the case - look at me, this is serious what I'm getting ready to tell you-

00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:26.480
If that's the case I wouldn't be here
right now talking to you, do you understand what I'm saying?

00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:28.800
Tell me what you think I'm saying to you.

00:21:31.800 --> 00:21:32.720
Suicide?

00:21:33.080 --> 00:21:35.320
Yeah. That was me.

00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:37.040
I just didn't get to complete it.

00:21:38.220 --> 00:21:41.900
[Raven] You're here for a reason.
You've got the ability to inspire.

00:21:42.420 --> 00:21:46.880
If you give up that person behind you gives up,
then that person gives up.

00:21:47.520 --> 00:21:52.800
Our people are suffering. You just, you can't give up
because those kids are depending on you.

00:21:54.560 --> 00:21:56.960
Let them feel your strength, you know?

00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:02.140
That you may not fix it, but you...you're there.

00:22:02.140 --> 00:22:04.020
You know? You care about them.

00:22:09.640 --> 00:22:11.640
Which one should we go through first, David?

00:22:13.080 --> 00:22:15.080
This one's my Auntie Naomi.

00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:18.280
She passed away of kidney failure.

00:22:18.840 --> 00:22:20.940
This one's my Grandma Doris.

00:22:21.220 --> 00:22:24.820
And this was my friend Nora Goodface.

00:22:24.820 --> 00:22:27.240
She passed away of cancer.

00:22:27.820 --> 00:22:32.060
This was my mom's friend. She died of liver failure.

00:22:33.100 --> 00:22:35.540
This one was my niece Zarayah.

00:22:35.540 --> 00:22:37.320
She commit suicide.

00:22:37.320 --> 00:22:39.320
She was 16 years old.

00:22:39.820 --> 00:22:42.660
And last but not least, was my sister Cheryl.

00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:49.520
I miss her.

00:23:14.320 --> 00:23:16.480
Faster! Like this.

00:23:17.360 --> 00:23:18.260
Owww!

00:23:18.260 --> 00:23:20.340
[Shaionna] Tȟuŋkášila, Até Waŋtȟáŋka

00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:23.540
I ask that you protect these girls
and watch over them,

00:23:23.560 --> 00:23:25.960
and I hope that we inspire more girls to jump in,

00:23:26.060 --> 00:23:29.860
and I pray that you watch over all our relatives,
watch over my mom...

00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:32.580
The people are having a hard time struggling,

00:23:33.540 --> 00:23:35.060
I ask that you protect us.

00:23:40.080 --> 00:23:41.720
[Announcer] Alright we're headed to round three.

00:23:42.080 --> 00:23:45.120
In the red corner: Shaionna Grass Rope

00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:48.080
In the blue corner: Micaela Fox

00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:51.860
Remember, this is loser out now.

00:23:51.860 --> 00:23:54.060
Winner advancing and the loser, done.

00:23:54.800 --> 00:23:56.400
[Raelynn] Go Shaionna!

00:23:57.940 --> 00:23:58.900
Go!

00:23:59.900 --> 00:24:02.540
[Cheering from the audience]

00:24:14.040 --> 00:24:15.160
[Referee] Ten seconds!

00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:16.960
[Bell rings]

00:24:20.380 --> 00:24:23.060
[Announcer] Alright, your winner advancing

00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:26.680
The blue corner: Micaela Fox!

00:24:27.180 --> 00:24:30.100
Let's give Shaionna a round of applause. She's done here tonight.

00:24:30.260 --> 00:24:31.780
Show her some love.

00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:40.480
[Music]

00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:52.320
[Davita groans]

00:24:58.500 --> 00:25:00.580
[Davita] I can't do this all night.

00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:14.060
[Davita screams] God, help me.

00:25:14.760 --> 00:25:16.880
Help me!

00:25:31.460 --> 00:25:32.640
This is too much.

00:25:34.700 --> 00:25:38.800
I don't want the girls thinking I just
up and left them and I don't love them.

00:25:42.820 --> 00:25:48.100
But I need something to cure my pain. I need something to, you know, make me feel numb.

00:25:57.020 --> 00:26:00.740
[Sound of thunder]

00:26:26.800 --> 00:26:28.600
Did Shaionna get a hold of you?

00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:31.240
No she's not at the house.

00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:36.600
I hope she's not using.

00:26:37.260 --> 00:26:38.500
I pray that she's not.

00:26:39.280 --> 00:26:42.760
If you run into her just tell her that I'd like to talk to her.

00:26:46.600 --> 00:26:52.280
[Shilea] How come Shaionna put "R.I.P Shaionna Legacy Grassrope Ziegler?"

00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.720
She put "I give up on everything this time."

00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:24.720
[Machine beeps]

00:27:25.080 --> 00:27:28.120
[Doctor] So we'll just plan for later on today
for one of us to do the amputation.

00:27:28.280 --> 00:27:31.400
All depends who can get to it sooner but
she'll be on later today, okay?

00:27:31.840 --> 00:27:33.760
Alright, then I'll come talk to someone later.

00:27:34.080 --> 00:27:35.520
[Josette] Mom, you want to listen to a song?

00:27:35.840 --> 00:27:38.120
Bring up some wicked old memories with this song.

00:27:39.360 --> 00:27:41.760
[Both singing] I don't wanna dance,

00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:45.160
Dance with you baby, no more.

00:27:45.820 --> 00:27:49.360
I'd never do something to hurt you though.

00:27:50.260 --> 00:27:52.580
Oh, but the feeling is bad, the feeling is bad.

00:27:52.580 --> 00:27:54.440
[Josette] Go Grandma, get down!

00:27:54.960 --> 00:28:00.520
I don't want to dance, dance with you baby no more.

00:28:00.800 --> 00:28:02.320
[Davita] I miss Shaionna.

00:28:05.960 --> 00:28:10.620
[Singing] Oh but the feeling is bad, the feeling is bad.

00:28:25.280 --> 00:28:27.040
I got it, yes yes!

00:28:34.080 --> 00:28:37.000
[Shilea] Boxing made made me feel
like...

00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:38.400
all the girls in there...

00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:43.520
made me feel like they were like sisters.

00:28:47.560 --> 00:28:51.020
But, Shaionna just kinda went downhill again, so...

00:28:51.040 --> 00:28:56.480
just gotta wait til she gets on the right path again.

00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:06.700
[April] You guys are the ones that need to get
it all together.

00:29:06.700 --> 00:29:10.240
And keep each other positive and hang in there with each other.

00:29:10.240 --> 00:29:12.840
Maybe you guys could ask... what's his name?

00:29:13.700 --> 00:29:15.860
Daniel, yeah.

00:29:15.860 --> 00:29:18.820
[Rachel] Maybe he might know somebody,
you know that boxes.

00:29:19.840 --> 00:29:21.600
[Raelynn] Alright, I'm messaging him now.

00:29:21.640 --> 00:29:23.280
"Would you like to meet up at..."

00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:25.640
[Jada] The library, cause he works there.

00:29:26.020 --> 00:29:27.620
[Continues] "...at the library"

00:29:28.040 --> 00:29:29.160
[Jada] On Monday

00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:31.100
[Raelynn] "On Monday to talk about..."

00:29:31.340 --> 00:29:33.320
[Rianna] Alright, after this who's ready to have some fun?

00:29:33.320 --> 00:29:34.400
[Doris, inhaling helium] What's up dudes?

00:29:34.500 --> 00:29:36.500
[All laughing]

00:29:37.140 --> 00:29:39.140
What's up!

00:29:41.160 --> 00:29:42.060
[Rianna] Jada's gonna sound really weird.

00:29:42.560 --> 00:29:44.200
Hey guys!

00:29:46.300 --> 00:29:48.620
Oh my god, I sound really funny!

00:29:54.500 --> 00:29:56.120
|Raelynn] We talked to Danny yesterday.

00:29:56.500 --> 00:30:00.340
Yeah cause we're serious about this boxing
thing, and we really want to do it.

00:30:00.420 --> 00:30:01.980
[[Raelynn] Can you stop interrupting me?

00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:04.520
As I was saying...

00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:06.780
Like I don't wanna start something

00:30:06.900 --> 00:30:09.980
and then have it all just end, how Shaionna did it.

00:30:11.540 --> 00:30:13.820
[Danny] Don't use this as, like a...

00:30:13.820 --> 00:30:19.020
a thing to decide if she's a good coach,
if she's a good role model, anything like that.

00:30:19.760 --> 00:30:24.280
She started this, she's brought us together and
now we want to keep moving on.

00:30:24.420 --> 00:30:26.520
[Amara] So this is basically a new start for us.

00:30:26.520 --> 00:30:27.800
[Girls] Yeah

00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:29.800
So when do you guys wanna start?

00:30:31.280 --> 00:30:32.640
[Amara] Soon as possible.

00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:48.720
[Micaela] Just keep from your cheek straight.

00:30:50.700 --> 00:30:52.800
Hook's like that. It's like your guys' power punch.

00:31:20.660 --> 00:31:21.400
Shaionna.

00:31:27.560 --> 00:31:29.720
[Shaionna sighs] Got a fight next week.

00:31:29.740 --> 00:31:30.460
[Davita] Where at?

00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:31.520
In Heron.

00:31:34.500 --> 00:31:36.520
Been working out, training

00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:39.680
[Davita] Training with those girls?

00:31:40.540 --> 00:31:42.540
[Shaionna] Mmm... no.

00:31:43.360 --> 00:31:45.280
[Davita] You're gonna take them with you, right?

00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:49.100
[Davita] You know, you guys gotta
make your own choices,

00:31:49.100 --> 00:31:51.000
but I hope you're making good ones Shaionna.

00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:59.160
I pray that you change your life.

00:32:02.780 --> 00:32:05.000
You're a fighter Shaionna, you're a warrior.

00:32:06.080 --> 00:32:07.920
You got a good heart, Shaionna.

00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:32.480
[Lakota singing.]

00:32:33.760 --> 00:32:36.640
[Shaionna] I feel pretty lost right now.

00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:44.600
I feel like my spirits not here - like my body's here but my spirit's not here.

00:32:44.920 --> 00:32:47.520
Like this ain't me right now.

00:32:53.540 --> 00:32:57.520
I had all that time to spend time with my mom and be there for the boxing team.

00:32:58.740 --> 00:33:02.120
But I decided to do drugs and push myself
away from everybody.

00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:08.180
What comes if I just keep going and keep going?

00:33:09.860 --> 00:33:11.860
I don't wanna feel this way no more.

00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:16.000
I wanna figure out how to cope and not use no more.

00:33:17.760 --> 00:33:57.040
[Lakota singing]

00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:01.280
May the Lord make his face shine upon
our sister Davita.

00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:04.400
May her soul and the souls of all the departed

00:34:04.400 --> 00:34:08.560
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

00:34:09.200 --> 00:34:12.960
[Shaionna] Mommy! Oh, mommy!

00:34:12.960 --> 00:34:27.840
[Music] I found a way to make it home.

00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:36.880
[Music] I'm here to stay. With you I found another way.

00:34:36.880 --> 00:34:43.040
[Music] Another way.

00:34:55.840 --> 00:34:57.840
[Leroy, falling] Oh, shit!

00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:03.840
[Laugter]

00:35:04.800 --> 00:35:08.320
[Leroy] My friggin foot got stuck!

00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:13.760
[Windy] Gee, she really got him already...knocked Leroy down, eh!

00:35:18.560 --> 00:35:24.240
[Shaionna] You guys feel that energy? That's mom.

00:35:55.200 --> 00:35:58.080
There's a good side of me that just
wants to do good.

00:35:58.560 --> 00:36:00.080
Try to fix everything.

00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:06.160
And this other side just wants me to
destroy everything and make everyone feel how I feel.

00:36:06.560 --> 00:36:09.920
Like when I'm with the girls,
I feel more spiritual.

00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:12.960
It makes me feel like you know I have a purpose here.

00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:20.320
[Raelynn] Ok, three, two, one!

00:36:24.560 --> 00:36:27.760
[Laughing] Oh, it's actually warm!

00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:29.760
[Rianna] Amara, you're turn!

00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:43.480
[Marley] Yes! Shaionna!

00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:46.880
[Shilea]   Get it, girl!

00:37:02.400 --> 00:38:00.160
