		Imaging and Imagining the Ghost Dance: James Mooney'sIllustrations and Photographs, 1891-93. ^Votes:0 Imaging and Imagining the Ghost Dance: James Mooney's Illustrations and Photographs, 1891-93. back Mooney's Published Illustrations of the Ghost Dance In his report, Mooney mentioned four accounts of Ghost Dances: George Bird Grinnell's brief description of a Northern Cheyenne ceremony; a second hand account of an Oglala ceremony by trader J. F. Asay. The third, and according to Mooney, "best" account, was by a Mrs. Z. A. Parker, a teacher at Pine Ridge. The fourth account was Mooney's own, based on his observations of the Southern Arapaho ceremonial. Interestingly, while Mooney gave "tribal" attributions for the first three accounts, he gave none for his own. Moreover, his presentation of his own observations included only minimal description of the chronology of specific events; rather, Read More Go to Site

		Religion, Rituals, Myths and Legends ^Votes:0 American Indian Spirituality Sachem Walkingfox offers prayers at the Carlisle Indian School cemetery in Pennsylvania. Spirituality is not religion to American Indians.

		TPT Productions: Dakota Exile ^Votes:0 O n the day after Christmas 1862, the United States hanged 38 Dakota men in Mankato, Minnesota and drove a people out of the state. The heroic story of their brave struggle to survive is told by the Dakota themselves in DAKOTA EXILE - a sequel to the critically acclaimed KTCA documentary, THE DAKOTA CONFLICT. The 1862 hangings represented the largest mass execution in U.S. history and marked the end of the Dakota Conflict - what non-Indians called "The Sioux Uprising" - as well as the beginning of a long journey into exile for the Eastern Dakota Nation. Narrated by rock-and-roll legend Robbie Robertson , DAKOTA EXILE traces the paths of Dakota prisoners and refugees. Through the words of Dakota Elders and tribal historians, DAKOTA EXILE tells of the struggle to remain Dakota in the face of Read More Go to Site

		Wounded Knee Site Index ^Votes:0 CANKPE OPI ( Painting by Frank Howell ) "There is nothing to conceal or apologize for in the Wounded Knee Battle - beyond the killing of a wounded buck by a hysterical recruit. The firing was begun by the Indians and continued until they stopped - with the one exception noted above." "That women and children were casualties was unfortunate but unavoidable, and most must have been [killed] from Indian bullets...The Indians at Wounded Knee brought their own destruction as surely as any people ever did. Their attack on the troops was as treacherous as any in the history of Indian warfare, and that they were under a strange religious hallucination is only an explanation not an excuse." ...excerpts from an official investigation of Wounded Knee initiated at the behest of Con Read More Go to Site
