By using the Plains Indian Wars as a case study, a critique can be made of theories which inform predictive models and genocide policy. This thesis analyzes newspaper articles, histories, congressional investigations, presidential speeches, and administrative policies surrounding the four primary massacres perpetrated by the United States during this time. An ideology of racial superiority and fears of insecurity, impurity, and insurgency drove the actions of the white settler-colonialists and their military counterparts.

    Crushing the Native Americans • 1867--250,000 Indians in western U.S. – displaced Eastern Indians – Native Plains Indians • By the 1880s – most Indians on reservations – California Indians decimated by disease • By the 1890s Indian cultures crumble Essential Questions 1) What motivated Americans from the east to move westward? 2) How did American expansion westward affect the American Indians? 3) How was American “identity” forged through westward expansion? Which picture best represents America? What affects our perception of American identity? Life of the Plains Indians: Political Organization • Plains Indians nomadic, hunt buffalo – skilled horsemen – tribes develop warrior class – wars limited to skirmishes, "counting coups" • Tribal bands governed by chief and council • Loose organization confounds federal policy Life of the Plains Indians: Social Organization • Sexual division of labor – men hunt, trade, supervise ceremonial activities, clear ground for planting – women responsible for child rearing, art, camp work, gardening, food preparation • Equal gender status common – kinship often matrilineal – women often manage family property Misconceptions / Truths of Native Americans Misconceptions Truths • Not all speak the same • Most did believe land belonged language or have the same to no one (no private property) traditions • Reservation lands were • Not all live on reservations continually taken away by the • Tribes were not always government unified • Many relied on hunting as a • Most tribes were not hostile way of life (buffalo) • Most tribes put a larger stake on honor rather than wealth Culture of White Settlers • Most do believe in private property • A strong emphasis on material wealth (money) • Few rely on hunting as a way of life; most rely on farming • Many speak the same language and have a similar culture What is important about the culture of white settlers in comparison to the culture of the American Indians?

  • About Native Americans: Cultures
    CK_5_TH_HG_P231_324.QXD 2/13/06 1:56 PM Page 300 III. Native Americans: Cultures and Conflicts At a Glance The most important ideas for you are: ◗ Over time, the native people of the Great Basin, Plateau, and Plains cul- ture regions had developed cultures that were adapted to the environ- ment and shared similar cultural traits and characteristics. ◗ The coming of European Americans changed the way of life of the Native Americans. ◗ The federal government established the Bureau of Indian Affairs in 1824 to “safeguard” the well-being of Native Americans. ◗ From the 1860s to 1934, the Bureau of Indian Affairs forced Native Americans onto reservations, broke up tribal holdings, and attempted to impose a policy of assimilation. ◗ Between the 1850s and 1890, the army, settlers, miners, and ranchers fought a series of battles with the Native Americans that became known as the Plains Wars. What Teachers Need to Know Background Anthropologists have categorized Native American peoples into culture regions in order to study and understand them. A culture region is a geograph- ic area in which different groups have adapted to their physical surroundings in similar ways, and share similar cultural traits and characteristics, such as language, beliefs, customs, laws, dress, and housing. However, even within cul- ture regions, groups still retain certain individual group characteristics. For the purpose of presenting information to your students, the diversity of the groups within areas is not discussed. For the most part, the emphasis in this lesson is on generalizations that apply to large numbers of peoples and nations within a culture region.

  • Another View of Wounded Knee
    Copyright © 1987 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Another View of Wounded Knee ALAN K. LATHROP Several years ago, the author was given a large, dilapidated leather-bound ledger, thirty pages of which were occupied by what appeared to be a previously unknown and unpublished diary written by an eyewitness to the Battle of Wounded Knee. The chronicle of events covered the fateful days of late December 1890 and January 1891 when the Sioux became inflamed with the "messiah craze," or Ghost Dance phenomenon, and —purposefully or accidentally — resorted momentarily to force of arms to protect their new-found religion. The ledger was turned over to the au- thor by an acquaintance who had discovered it in a trashbin some years earlier and who insisted on complete anonymity in ex- change for donating the document to the author to do with as he chose. The donor hoped that its contents could one day be made known to those interested in the battle and its aftermath but otherwise put no stipulations on the gift. The diary was in frightful physical condition. It exhibited clear signs of having been stored for many years in an extremely damp environment. Wet rot had completely decayed a fourth to a third of each page and had obliterated portions of the handwriting, which was in ink and pencil, resulting in the loss of a great deal of potentially valuable information. The remainder of the text had been pasted over with turn-of-the-century newspaper clippings on a variety of subjects, all taken from Saint Paul newspapers; Copyright © 1987 by the South Dakota State Historical Society.

  • In the Shadow of Wounded Knee (An Excerpt)
    In the Shadow of Wounded Knee (an excerpt) After 150 years of broken promises, the Oglala Lakota people of the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota are nurturing their tribal customs, language, and beliefs. A rare, intimate portrait shows their resilience in the face of hardship. By Alexandra Fuller Almost every historical atrocity has a geographically symbolic core, a place whose name conjures up the trauma of a whole people: Auschwitz, Robben Island, Nanjing. For the Oglala Lakota of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation that place is a site near Wounded Knee Creek, 16 miles northeast of the town of Pine Ridge. From a distance the hill is unremarkable, another picturesque tree-spotted mound in the creased prairie. But here at the mass grave of all those who were killed on a winter morning more than a century ago, it’s easy to believe that certain energies—acts of tremendous violence and of transcendent love—hang in the air forever and possess a forever half-life. Alex White Plume, a 60-year-old Oglala Lakota activist, lives with his family and extended family on a 2,000-acre ranch near Wounded Knee Creek. White Plume’s land is lovely beyond any singing, rolling out from sage-covered knolls to creeks bruised with late summer lushness. From certain aspects, you can see the Badlands, all sun-bleached spires and scoured pinnacles. And looking another way, you can see the horizon-crowning darkness of the Black Hills of South Dakota. One hot and humid day in early August, I drove out to interview White Plume in a screened outdoor kitchen he had just built for his wife.
