Sitting Bull
Thursday will be the 115 anniversary of the assasination of Sitting Bull. This lead to Chief Bigfoot taking his band of Lakota to Wounded Knee on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation where, on December 29, 1890, the 7th Cavalry slaughtered 300-560 Indians. Most of the Cav had whiskey the night before.
Yesterday, December 10, also marked the 115 year anniversary of the Buffalo Gap Massacre, where some 50 Lakota where murdered by white settlers in South Dakota. One woman survived. She walked to Bigfoot's camp in about a week where she found everyone to be gone. She followed the tracks and, on her own, she got to Wounded Knee on December 30th, a day after the genocidal murders of the Lakota by the United States Government.
Yes, I take this fucking shit personally, and don't give me that "just get over it" BULLSHIT either.
