As a child, I always played "Indian" Wounded Knee today is December 29th, always remember that. "DECEMBER 29, 1890
WOUNDED KNEE MASSACRE (USA)
“I did not know at that moment that it was the end of so many things. When I look back now, from this high mountain of my old age, I still see the women and children massacred, piled up and scattered along that zig-zag ravine, clearly as I saw them with my own eyes when I was young. And I can see that with them another thing died up there, on the blood-stained snow, and remained buried under the storm. Up there died the dream of a people. It was a beautiful dream… the circle of the nation is broken and its fragments are scattered. The circle has no center anymore, and the sacred tree is dead.”
