We remember the pain, we pray for the cycles of trauma since and act to heal everyday onward. The greatest testament to our strength as Native people rests in the fact of our continued existence AND resistance. Oscar Howe's, "Wounded Knee Massacre", 1960, a rarely seen masterpiece. The disquieting master work was spurned at its reception, and has seldom been seen since. Oscar Howe Family. Courtesy: the Dwight D.
