This brings back so many vivid memories. I led a mission trip with some youth to Pine Ridge and Manderson. One evening we visited Wounded Knee after a thunderstorm hit. As we pulled up to the burial site there was the most magnificent double rainbow. What happened there was shocking and reverberates through our history. In one of the most economically disadvantaged areas of our country we have not figured out how to really do the right thing for the population of native Americans. I'm looking forward to your full video on this episode. Thanks for your unique insights wherever you go.
I spent many summers in Pine Ridge, and our family would go to the monument every year to pray and leave tobacco. I found it so disrespectful when, while praying, tourist would come up and start taking pics or filming. My dad always asked them to be respectful and not do that while we prayed. Always good about it.
The Data Meister is back. Excellent. As a South Dakota resident I am well-versed in the tragedy of Wounded Knee. As a future project, have you considered the Mexican-American War as a video project? Very, very little military related history on that campaign on UA-cam, and the engagements and legends made during that campaign between countless West Point graduates, and an unknown quarter-master named U.S. Grant, is just extraordinary. Thanks, and be well.
I read the book "Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee" by Dee Brown many years ago. It saddened me very much. Looking forward to your content on this.

Based on past experience with your channel, I know this will be a great video.
Eagerly awaiting this one.
