Plenty Horses’ defense after slaying Lt. Casey near Pine Ridge, South Dakota. “Five years I attended Carlisle Indian School and was educated in the ways of the white man. When I returned to my people, I was an outcast among them. I was no longer an Indian. I was not a white man. I was lonely. I shot the lieutenant so I might make a place for myself among my people. I am now one of them. I shall be hung, and the Indians will bury me as a warrior.” He was finally released.

Whatever she’s weaving looks beautiful. I wonder if she ever thought that a little over a hundred years later, the White man would be stealing her designs and selling it as “tribal.”
