The American Buffalo:
#SittingBull and the #WoundedKneeMassacre

Clip: 10/17/2023

"U.S. concern over a new #GhostDance ceremony prompted the arrest of the #Lakota #ChiefSittingBull. Dozens ended up dead, including Sitting Bull. Several hundred Lakotas headed toward the #BlackHills to end things peaceably with the #USArmy. En route, they camped at a creek called #WoundedKnee. The next morning, more than 250 Lakotas – mostly #women and #children – were killed by #US soldiers."
