Frank Fools Crow (June 1890 - November 27, 1989) was a Lakota Sioux spiritual leader, Yuwipi medicine man, and the nephew of Black Elk. Raised in the traditional way, he did not attend "the white man's school" as his father did not approve, which is why he could not speak fluent English. As a young man he traveled around the United States with the Buffalo Bill Cody Wild West Show. He spent much of his life serving his people as a medicine man, healer, and teacher.
Two awesome faces. Chief Fools Crow and Kate at a powwow at Wounded Knee, South Dakota. July 1984 - See Alt

TBF, the US govt doesn't have a great track record in respect of abiding by agreements it signs.
Just ask native Americans.
273 treaties signed.
273 broken.
Who broke them first, in each and every case?
Guess...

On #ThisDayInHistory, in 1890, #Lakota warriors faced US soldiers in the #DrexelMissionFight, killing one & wounding a few, just a day after the massacre at #WoundedKnee, in which the army killed 300 #indigenous people. The US won its lands through #genocide. Give the #LandBack.

Your daily reminder that an atrocity is not simply constituted by physical acts of violence but also by the way it is subsequently justified, covered up or deliberately misnamed. The refusal to acknowledge atrocity, in the past as much as the present, is in itself a form of violence. #WoundedKnee

135 years ago today, hundreds of unarmed Lakota, mostly women and children, were massacred at #WoundedKnee. In 2025, Trump reinstated the military medals honoring their murderers.
Please spend 12 mins watching this video, just from where it starts to around the 16-min mark.

After a half-century of uncertainty, Cheryl Buswell-Robinson wants the body of her husband, Perry Ray Robinson, to be returned. He died while participating in the 1973 #WoundedKnee occupation on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.

Poster art of a young Native man circa 1973 and the words "We remember Wounded Knee."
PLEASE DO NOT POST THOSE PHOTOS OF MASSACRED PEOPLE AT #WOUNDEDKNEE.
Photos of dead ancestors are traumatizing to many descendants.
You don't need to show photos to make a massacre more "credible." Those photos were bought & sold, monetizing genocide. Believe Native people.

#WoundedKnee is the most famous US mass slaughter of Native people, but massacres happened all the time as settlers stole land. To think that Wounded Knee was an aberration is to deny the inherent & constant violence of settler colonialism.
You can see it happening in Palestine right now.

December 29 is the anniversary of the 1890 #WoundedKnee massacre, when US soldiers slaughtered more than 300 Lakota people - children and elders, women and men.
War Secretary Pete Hegseth recently said that the soldiers deserved their medals and he would not revoke them.
