  • Plains Indians
    Your Name Keyboarding II xx Period Mr. Behling Current Date Plains Indians The American Plains Indians are among the best known of all Native Americans. These Indians played a significant role in shaping the history of the West. Some of the more noteworthy Plains Indians were Big Foot, Black Kettle, Crazy Horse, Red Cloud, Sitting Bull, and Spotted Tail. Big Foot Big Foot (?1825-1890) was also known as Spotted Elk. Born in the northern Great Plains, he eventually became a Minneconjou Teton Sioux chief. He was part of a tribal delegation that traveled to Washington, D. C., and worked to establish schools throughout the Sioux Territory. He was one of those massacred at Wounded Knee in December 1890 (Bowman, 1995, 63). Black Kettle Black Kettle (?1803-1868) was born near the Black Hills in present-day South Dakota. He was recognized as a Southern Cheyenne peace chief for his efforts to bring peace to the region. However, his attempts at accommodation were not successful, and his band was massacred at Sand Creek in 1864. Even though he continued to seek peace, he was killed with the remainder of his tribe in the Washita Valley of Oklahoma in 1868 (Bowman, 1995, 67). Crazy Horse Crazy Horse (?1842-1877) was also born near the Black Hills. His father was a medicine man; his mother was the sister of Spotted Tail. He was recognized as a skilled hunter and fighter. Crazy Horse believed he was immune from battle injury and took part in all the major Sioux battles to protect the Black Hills against white intrusion.

  • Teacher’S Guide Teacher’S Guide Little Bighorn National Monument
    LITTLE BIGHORN NATIONAL MONUMENT TEACHER’S GUIDE TEACHER’S GUIDE LITTLE BIGHORN NATIONAL MONUMENT INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Teacher’s Guide is to provide teachers grades K-12 information and activities concerning Plains Indian Life-ways, the events surrounding the Battle of the Little Bighorn, the Personalities involved and the Impact of the Battle. The information provided can be modified to fit most ages. Unit One: PERSONALITIES Unit Two: PLAINS INDIAN LIFE-WAYS Unit Three: CLASH OF CULTURES Unit Four: THE CAMPAIGN OF 1876 Unit Five: BATTLE OF THE LITTLE BIGHORN Unit Six: IMPACT OF THE BATTLE In 1879 the land where The Battle of the Little Bighorn occurred was designated Custer Battlefield National Cemetery in order to protect the bodies of the men buried on the field of battle. With this designation, the land fell under the control of the United States War Department. It would remain under their control until 1940, when the land was turned over to the National Park Service. Custer Battlefield National Monument was established by Congress in 1946. The name was changed to Little Bighorn National Monument in 1991. This area was once the homeland of the Crow Indians who by the 1870s had been displaced by the Lakota and Cheyenne. The park consists of 765 acres on the east boundary of the Little Bighorn River: the larger north- ern section is known as Custer Battlefield, the smaller Reno-Benteen Battlefield is located on the bluffs over-looking the river five miles to the south. The park lies within the Crow Indian Reservation in southeastern Montana, one mile east of I-90.

  • Remarks by Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy Before the National
    ~tpartmtnt ll~ ~ustitt REMARKS By ATroRNEY GENERAL ROBERT F. KENNEDY Before The NATIONAL CONGBESS OF AMH:RICAN INDIANS Grand Pacific Hotel Bismarck, North Dakota September 13, 1963 It is a tragic irony that the American Indian has for so long been denied a full share of freedom -- full citizenship in the greatest free country in the world. And the irony is compounded when we realize how great the influence of Indian culture has been in shaping our national character. The earliest white settlers in this country were quick to adopt Indian ways of dealing with the harsh elements of their new world; they must certainly have learned more from the Indians than the-Indians from them. The men who framed our Constitution are said to have drawn much of their inspiration from tribal practices of the Iroquois League -- the concept of a Union of sovereign states, for example, and the principle of .Government by consent of the governed, The nobility and valor of the great warrior chiefs -- men like Wabasha, Pontiac, Tecumseh and Black Ha~k; like Crazy Horse, Sitting BUll, American Horse, Cochise, and Joseph -- will always hold an honored place in our his­ tory. Nearly half our states and many hundreds of our cities and towns bear Indian names; numberless Indian words and phrases have become a part of the American language and the American philosophy. And still the paradox exists. Alexis de Tocqueville, that nineteenth century French traveler who seemed to know so much more about America than the Americans knew about themselves, was outspoken in his admiration of the Indian race -- and in his disapproval of their treatment.

  • 1868 Chief Red Cloud and General William Tecumseh Sherman Sign the Fort Laramie Treaty, Which Brings an End to War Along the Bozeman Trail
    1868 Chief Red Cloud and General William Tecumseh Sherman sign the Fort Laramie Treaty, which brings an end to war along the Bozeman Trail. Under terms of the treaty, the United States agrees to abandon its forts along the Bozeman Trail and grant enormous parts of the Wyoming, Montana and Dakota Territories, including the Black Hills area, to the Lakota people as their exclusive territory. 1868 General Philip Sheridan sends Colonel George Armstrong Custer against the Cheyenne, with a plan to attack them during the winter when they are most vulnerable. Custer's troops locate a Cheyenne village on the Washita River in present-day Oklahoma. By a cruel coincidence, the village is home to Black Kettle and his people, the victims of the Sand Creek Massacre in 1864. Custer's cavalry attacks at dawn, killing more than 100 men, women and children, including Black Kettle. 1875 THE LAKOTA WAR A Senate commission meeting with Red Cloud and other Lakota chiefs to negotiate legal access for the miners rushing to the Black Hills offers to buy the region for $6 million. But the Lakota refuse to alter the terms of the 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty, and declare they will protect their lands from intruders if the government won't. 1876 Federal authorities order the Lakota chiefs to report to their reservations by January 31. Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse and others defiant of the American government refuse.General Philip Sheridan orders General George Crook, General Alfred Terry and Colonel John Gibbon to drive Sitting Bull and the other chiefs onto the reservation through a combined assault.

  • JUDITH ST. GEORGE's NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY by Judith St
    JUDITH ST. GEORGE'S NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY by Judith St. George INTRODUCTION Discussion and Reading Guide for Native American History Books by Judith St. George Several years ago I came upon the tragic history of the Sioux Indians while doing research for a book about Mount Rushmore. The Sioux were once the most powerful tribe in America. Today the Sioux Pine Ridge Reservation is among the nation's poorest communities. How could this happen? Researching and reading about the Sioux led me to write biographies of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull. A third biography naturally followed. Sacagawea, the young Shoshone woman who accompanied Lewis and Clark to the Pacific, had been my childhood heroine. Writing all three biographies from the Indians' point of view gave me the opportunity to describe their customs and practices in depth. This Study Guide will help teachers broaden their students' understanding of Indian life, traditions, beliefs, and history. By raising pertinent questions, the Guide also will encourage discussion, as well as lead students on to further reading and discovery about our country's Native American heritage. About the Author Judith St. George was born and raised in Westfield, New Jersey. Following her graduation from Smith College, she married and lived for a year in the historic Longfellow House in Cambridge, Massachusetts, George Washington's headquarters during the American Revolution. She attributes much of her interest in history, about which she writes with authority and enthusiasm, to this experience. While writing more than twenty-five books, ranging from mysteries to histories, she has also taught workshops and run story hours and reading programs for children.

  • 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.

  • How Did Westward Expansion Impact Native Americans? 1.Forced To
    MAIN IDEA: Native American life changed dramatically as a result of westward expansion How did Westward Expansion impact Native Americans? 1.Forced to move to reservations and Government breaks treaties 2.Lifestyle changes because of forced assimilation 3.Killing the buffalo 1. Forced to move to reservations • Settlers felt justified in taking Native Americans land because they felt they were making the land more productive. • Treaties forced millions of Native Americans onto reservations • Reservation: small piece of government land set aside for Native Americans Government Breaks Treaties • After tribes made treaties that relocated them to reservations, the US government and settlers frequently broke these treaties and took even more land from Native Americans Click to play video 2. Killing of the Buffalo • Deliberate reduction of buffalo herds to force them to move off their hunting grounds to reservations. 3. Forced Assimilation Assimilation: to blend into another culture, to accept that culture as one’s own. • Efforts to get Native Americans to become settled farmers – settlers wanted the land to be used more “productively”. • Dawes Act – Reservation land was divided into 160 acre plots and given to individual families to farm for a profit. • Missionaries attempted to convert Native Americans to Christianity. • Indian Boarding Schools – Children were sent to schools to focus on skills such as carpentry and housekeeping. • Native Americans were not considered citizens until 1924 Assimilation How did Native Americans respond to Westward Settlement? •American Indians previously occupied the west and viewed settlers as invaders. • Many heroic American Indians made courageous efforts to save their people. Battle of Little Bighorn • Gold was discovered on the Sioux Reservation in South Dakota.
