MANKIND NO MATTER WHAT RACE OR COLOR HAVE BEEN GUILTY OF SAVAGENESS AGAINST EACH OTHER THROUGHOUT TIME.

We always hear about the horrible Sand Creek Massacre,  but none of the people who share that seem to know about this horrific day in Minnesota.  Thank you for sharing.

Through out the history of humanity, the thing we have most consistently demonstrated is our ability to perpetrate the worst of atrocities on each other.

Its one of the most glaring traits of what it means to be human

When one has been convinced to hate themselves and their heritage and country, they must revise its history to further justify their hatred. Thanks UH! You are on a noble mission, Godspeed.

Very interesting bit of history! I regret we weren’t taught any of this history in school. Only repeated drilling on dates…this actual history is so interesting!

Ive said it before in related stories, but my GGG Grandpa was in the 7th Minnesota Volunteer Infantry and he went with Sibley to chase down the Sioux.  To his day nobody really knows how many settlers died, some say up to 750 or 800 due to the open prairie at the time where people were building soddies here, there and everywhere.  My ancestor was a 38 year old farmer from Germany with a wife and 3 sons on the farm, he could barely sign his name in English and had been in America for 10 years at the time.
After the hanging in December the boys got a short leave at home then they rode flatboats down to New Orleans where they joined the Civil War battles.  Mikel got sick somewhere along the way and ended up on a medical barge near Memphis, those that lived were fortunate enough to go to the vets home in Prairie du Chein, WI.  He spent some months there before making his way back to his farm near Waterville MN.  He only made it another two years, whatever sickness he got during the war did him in, and the life of a farmer with by then 5 kids must have been rough.
After his death my illiterate GGG Grandma was told to subpoena the US Govt for a war pension, the local men he served with all signed affidavits regarding his service.  Unfortunately, the first man she hired was a scoundrel and he got her to sign a stack of papers in which she signed the 160 acre farm over to him.  She eventually did get a small pension.  This was in her obituary which I have a copy of.
She had to rent a house in town and took in laundry to keep her boys fed, a few of them including my GG Grandpa were working by then but that poor woman must have felt terrible, it still surprises me to this day that rotten bastard who stole the farm didnt get strung from a tree.  She lived until the 1890s and had the respect of the town, she lies in an unmarked grave to his right, something that bothers me all to hell, and his limestone headstone is so eroded is was terribly hard to read 10 years ago.  Im just glad they all avoided the Indian raids but damn, thats one tough life they both lived.

Human beings are still torturing and killing those they do not understand or feel worthy.

obrigado pela postagem ..  :face-turquoise-covering-eyes:

Good point! There is a lot that is not  taught that certainly   needs to be!  However if students are not taught to read.  Well then  you have the mess we have now,

I was mortified that they left the 5 year old. 😢

UNWORTHY HISTORY!

Thanks for the truth. 👍🇺🇸

The movie "Dances With Wolves" was Entertainment, not History - This is what REALLY happened at that time. 😢

Thank you again for another interesting slice of real history.

Thank you for dong this work!!

My Norwegian Ancestors were in Dodge County Minnesota from 1854 on. This event appears to be due west of my Ancestors location, but not by much.
