Die Schlacht von Little Big Horn war die verheerendste Niederlage, die die US-Armee im Kampf gegen Indianer einstecken mussten. Aber wie kam es zu dieser Schlacht - und warum führte die US-Armee 1876 gegen die Sioux und Northern Cheyenne erneut Krieg? 1866, nach dem Ende von Red Cloud's War, hatten die Vereinigten Staaten den verschiedenen Stämmen der Lakota- und Dakota Sioux ein umfangreiches Reservat zugesprochen, dem weite Teile von North und South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Montana und Wyoming angehörten. Doch als eine von General Custer angeführte Expedition 1874 Gold in den für die Sioux heiligen Black Hills entdeckte, stand der Frieden erneut auf der Kippe. Die US-Armee zeigte sich unfähig - oder gar unwillig - weiße Goldschürfer aus den heiligen Bergen fernzuhalten. 1876 brach der schwelende Konflikt in einen erneuten Krieg zwischen der US-Regierung und einigen Stämmen der Lakota-Sioux und Northern Cheyenne aus. Doch die Kavallerie zeigte sich für die geplante "Strafexpedition" erstaunlich schlecht vorbereitet. Warum konnte der Konflikt erneut eskalieren? Welche Ereignisse führten zur "Schlacht am Little Big Horn"? Was genau geschah während "Custer's letztem Gefecht" gegen die Krieger von Sitting Bull und Crazy Horse?

The Lakota Sioux call them the Paha Sapa. We call them the Black Hills. The people who live in Keystone, South Dakota, call them their backyard. If you have ever visited Mt. Rushmore and the Black Hills, you probably drove by or through Keystone. But the Keystone you drive through now isn't where Keystone used to be - not since the flood of 1972. It was devastating. Back then, Keystone was in the valley by a lazy little creek which suddenly became a raging flood one day in 1972, roaring through that valley, destroying the town, and claiming many lives in the area. Well, it was then that the folks of Keystone decided to make a change. When they rebuilt their business district and many of their homes, it wasn't on the ground they had always been on. No, the flood changed all that. They moved up the mountain to higher ground. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Living Where It's Safe." Life's floods come in many forms; those major crises or disasters that carry away a lot of what we had been depending on. An illness, or maybe a death can do that, a divorce can do it, a disaster, a broken relationship, the loss of your job. There are a lot of upheavals that come rushing in and they change the landscape of our life forever. And they make you think, maybe for the first time, about where is the best place to build the rest of my life. Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Psalm 46: "God is our refuge and strength; an ever present help in trouble. Therefore, we will not fear though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea" - here come the floods - "though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging" (verses 1-3). We're talking here about life's major upheavals - everything you used to count on getting washed away. But remember, "God is our refuge and strength," so we don't have to fear those things. Why? Because when you've lost everything, you haven't lost everything! Not if you have a deep, personal love relationship with the God who never leaves, never lets go of those who belong to Him. The Psalm goes on to say, "The Lord Almighty is with us, come and see the works of the Lord" (verses 7-8). And then a simple statement that may explain the reason the flood was allowed to happen, so you would finally, "Be still and know that I am God" (verse 10). Maybe, for all practical purposes, you've been "God" in your life. You've been controlling things; you've been living life your way. And you've been building your life around someone or something here on earth - something or someone that the flood may be washing away, or maybe it already has. God's message to you through all of your stress and your pain is, "It's time to move to higher ground." Having seen how fragile, how losable all your earth stuff is, are you ready to build on something you can never lose, no matter what hits you? You were created to build your life on the One who gave you your life - God Himself. But the Bible says we've built it on ourselves. And it took the brutal death of God's Son, Jesus on the cross, to pay the death penalty for all of our "I'll be God" choices. The folks in Keystone, South Dakota, would never have considered moving to higher ground until that flood hit. And maybe you would have never considered turning your life over to Jesus Christ, but now the floods have hit. And you now know that nothing earth can offer you will give you what your heart is so hungry for. Isn't it time to move up the hill? It's the hill where Jesus died for you so you could finally have something that's called "ever-lasting"? If that's what you want, would you tell Jesus you're done running your life and you want to put your trust in the One who died for your sin? Check out our website today, it will help you know how to be sure you belong to Jesus. It's ANewStory.com. The flood has done its damage, and maybe it's sent its message. The ground you've been on is not where you were meant to live. It's time to move to the higher ground that you were made for. And, Jesus is the higher ground. And you, my friend, will be safe. Safe forever.

This Day in Legal History: Wounded KneeOn December 29, 1890, the U.S. Army's 7th Cavalry Regiment surrounded a Lakota Sioux encampment near Wounded Knee Creek on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. The soldiers had orders to disarm the Lakota, who had recently fled the Standing Rock Reservation following the killing of Sitting Bull. Tensions were high, and as troops attempted to confiscate weapons, a shot was fired—its origin remains unclear. What followed was a brutal onslaught in which U.S. forces opened fire on largely unarmed Lakota men, women, and children. Estimates suggest that between 250 and 300 Lakota were killed, many while fleeing or after surrendering.The Wounded Knee Massacre was the final major confrontation between Native Americans and the U.S. military during the so-called Indian Wars. It marked the culmination of decades of broken treaties and violent enforcement of federal Indian policy. Despite the civilian toll, 20 soldiers were later awarded the Medal of Honor, a decision that has since drawn sustained criticism and calls for revocation. The legal status of the massacre—framed at the time as a military engagement—has increasingly been re-evaluated through the lens of human rights law and treaty violations.The Lakota were supposed to be protected under treaties like the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, which guaranteed their land and autonomy. However, the discovery of gold in the Black Hills and growing U.S. expansionism led to the steady erosion of those promises. Wounded Knee became a symbol of that betrayal and the failure of the U.S. government to uphold its legal obligations. In 1990, on the massacre's centennial, Congress passed a resolution expressing “deep regret” but stopped short of issuing a formal apology. The massacre remains a central moment in the legal and political history of Native American rights in the United States.California announced it had dropped its lawsuit against the federal government over the Trump administration's decision to cancel over $4 billion in high-speed rail funding. The California High-Speed Rail Authority said the move reflected a lack of trust in the federal government as a reliable partner. Despite the loss of funds, the agency stated it would continue the project using mostly state resources, noting that only 18% of total expenditures have come from federal dollars. A judge had recently declined to dismiss the case, but California chose to end the legal fight regardless.The U.S. Department of Transportation supported the funding withdrawal, citing a Federal Railroad Administration report that found the rail project riddled with missed deadlines, budget issues, and unrealistic ridership forecasts. Governor Gavin Newsom previously criticized the cuts as politically motivated and driven by Trump's hostility toward California. The high-speed rail project, initially expected to cost $33 billion and be completed by 2020, is now projected to cost up to $128 billion with a completion target of 2033. So far, over 50 major structures and nearly 80 miles of guideway have been built.The state plans to attract private investors by mid-2026 and emphasized that construction will continue. Recent legislation provides $1 billion in annual state funding through 2045. Earlier in 2025, the federal government also rescinded $175 million for related projects. Despite legal and financial setbacks, the state remains committed to building the rail line connecting Los Angeles and San Francisco.California drops lawsuit over Trump decision to pull $4 billion in high-speed rail funds | ReutersLongtime Motel 6 spokesman Tom Bodett settled a lawsuit against the motel chain after accusing it of using his name and voice without consent. Bodett, who became synonymous with the brand through his signature line, “we'll leave the light on for you,” alleged the company continued using his likeness even after their professional relationship ended. The dispute arose when Motel 6's new parent company, OYO, allegedly failed to make a $1.2 million contractual payment due in January, prompting Bodett to terminate their agreement.Despite the split, Bodett claimed his voice and name remained on Motel 6's reservation phone system, violating federal trademark law and the terms of their contract. The company denied any wrongdoing, arguing Bodett himself breached the agreement, which they said nullified their payment obligation. The lawsuit, filed in June, was resolved in Manhattan federal court, though the settlement terms remain confidential.Bodett, now 70, is a well-known author and voice actor, with credits including NPR and Ken Burns documentaries. He had been the face and voice of Motel 6 since 1986 and was responsible for creating the brand's iconic tagline. The lawsuit came after Motel 6 was acquired by India-based OYO, part of Prism (formerly Oravel Stays), in a $525 million deal from Blackstone in December 2024.Longtime Motel 6 spokesman Tom Bodett settles lawsuit against chain | ReutersFBI Director Kash Patel announced a surge in federal investigative resources to Minnesota to probe alleged fraud involving public funds. While the FBI has offered few specifics, Patel's comments followed the circulation of a viral video showing allegedly inactive daycare centers in the state receiving government subsidies. Republican officials, including U.S. Rep. Tom Emmer and Vice President JD Vance, quickly amplified the video online, calling for action and linking the issue to broader concerns about state oversight.Critics, however, argue that the investigation is politically and racially charged. The Trump administration has repeatedly pointed to Minnesota's Somali American community as the center of alleged fraud, even as immigrant-rights groups warn that the pattern of enforcement suggests targeted profiling rather than impartial justice. The FBI has not clarified whether the focus on Somali defendants is supported by broader data or if the agency is treating these cases as representative of a larger trend.Governor Tim Walz's office has not yet commented, though tensions have grown between federal and state officials over the framing and scope of the investigations. Many of those charged in recent fraud cases are of Somali descent, according to federal sources cited by CBS News, but the disproportionate attention has led to accusations that the government is conflating individual criminal acts with an entire immigrant community.The lack of transparency about evidence and investigatory methods has fueled concerns that the DOJ under Trump may be using criminal enforcement as a political tool. Given President Trump's repeated attacks on Minnesota's Somali population, observers view this surge not as neutral law enforcement, but as part of a broader strategy to vilify immigrants and score political points.FBI investigating Minnesota fraud scheme, director says | ReutersNew York Governor Kathy Hochul announced a new state law requiring social media platforms to display mental health warning labels on features such as infinite scroll, auto-play, and algorithm-driven feeds. The law targets platform elements deemed “addictive” and likely to encourage compulsive use among young users. It reflects growing concerns over the impact of social media on youth mental health and follows recent actions in other jurisdictions, including Australia's ban on social media for children under 16.Under the law, platforms that operate partly or entirely in New York must comply, even if users access the services while physically outside the state. Enforcement authority rests with the New York Attorney General, who may bring civil suits and seek penalties of up to $5,000 per violation. Hochul likened the labels to those found on tobacco products or plastic packaging, positioning them as a public health measure designed to inform and protect.Major companies like Meta, TikTok, Snap, and Alphabet have not yet responded publicly to the law. The move aligns with ongoing legal efforts across the U.S., including lawsuits by school districts against social media companies and recommendations from the U.S. Surgeon General for stronger safety measures and clearer warnings. Critics may question the efficacy or enforceability of such warnings, especially in a fragmented digital landscape, but New York's law signals a growing willingness by states to directly regulate platform design in the name of mental health.New York to require social media platforms to display mental health warnings | Reuters This is a public episode.

Sermon Overview: This week Jesus' sharp words expose our desire to pursue comfort and avoid pain at all costs. Jesus explains that following him will be hard. Jesus' disciples will be called to let go of things they love and embrace things we naturally loathe. Jesus promises that discipleship comes with crosses—a unique type of pain. So, Jesus tells us that we must count the cost of following him. He wants us to do that now, ahead of time, rather than waiting until we are in the heat of the moment and emotions are running high. However, our calculations must not only consider what we might give up for Jesus. They also entail calculating what we get through him! When we perceive the infinite blessings we find in Christ, the decisions we just make, while difficult, will be clear. Whatever is lost as we follow Jesus pales in comparison to what we gain. Love the Lord your God, walk in his ways, and keep his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances. (Deuteronomy 30:16) Amen.George Armstrong Custer had not lost a battle he had fought in during the American Civil War or in the American Indian Wars. Until … the Battle of the Little Bighorn. There Custer met a combined force of Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes led by Crazy Horse and Chief Gall.The U.S. 7th Calvary, a force of 700 men went up against a force of between 1500 to 2500 Indian warriors. Even though they were outnumbered more than 2 to 1, the Army troops had guns and bullets versus the arrows and spears of the Indians.Custer made several mistakes that led to his only and lasting defeat. He didn't send advanced scouts because he was afraid of giving away his position. Without proper reconnaissance, Custer didn't know the exact size or location of the Indian village or the number of Indian warriors. (I don't know if you've ever noticed this, but the West can have some pretty wide-open spaces.)Custer could go for days without food or sleep. His soldiers and their horses could not. Custer had force-marched his troops through the mountains to reach the village quickly. His men and horses were exhausted and not in peak fighting condition for battle.Perhaps the biggest mistake Custer made was dividing his 700 men into three battalions. He sent Major Marcus Reno to attack the southern end of the village with three companies of 140 men. Custer sent Captain Frederick Benteen to scout and prevent the escape of the Indians to the south with three companies of 125 men. Custer led five companies with 210 men.At the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Lt. Col. Custer was killed, along with 268 soldiers, with another 55 severely wounded.At the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Lt. Col. Custer lost his life and the lives of so many soldiers because he did not count the cost – the cost of sending out scouts, of taking a day to rest, and especially keeping his forces together.Today Jesus tells you to count the cost of following him. He says, "For which of you, if he wants to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost to see if he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, everyone who sees it will begin to ridicule him, saying, 'This fellow began to build, but was not able to finish.' Or what king, as he goes out to confront another king in war, will not first sit down and consider if he is able with ten thousand to oppose the one who comes against him with twenty thousand? And if he is not able, he sends out a delegation and asks for terms of peace while his opponent is still far away" (Luke 14:28-32). Jesus gives two rhetorical parables about counting the cost of following him. Who builds a tower without making sure he has enough money to finish the project? What king goes to war without calculating whether his force can defeat the opposing king's forces? Jesus summarizes his point in these parables saying, "So then, any one of you who does not say farewell to all his own possessions cannot be my disciple" (Luke 14:33).Either you are willing to give it all up for Jesus – family, friends, possessions, freedom, even life – or you cannot be his disciple.Jesus gives us a good reminder that following him comes at a cost. Having a close relationship with Jesus will cost us time, money, promotions, family, freedom, and much more. It could cost a relationship with a future spouse because you disagree on Jesus, his Word, and his Sacraments. It could cost you a relationship with your child when you called him to repentance for moving in with his girlfriend. It could cost you a relationship with your daughter when you remind her of the importance of baptizing your grandbabies. It could cost you a relationship with your extended family because you won't celebrate your niece's abortion, but instead counseled her to give the baby up for adoption. It could cost you a relationship with your parents when you try to honor them by telling them it's time to move into an assisted living place, but they think you're being disrespectful because they're stubborn and ornery.It could cost you your job when you refuse to put your preferred pronouns in your email signature. It could cost you your education because you refuse to keep your hand down and mouth shut when your college professor spouts Woke nonsense. It could cost you friendships because your Christian beliefs influence your political beliefs, and you aren't shy about sharing either one.Jesus tells us that we must count the cost of losing relationships with those we love so we make sure to hold onto the relationship with the God who loves us more. "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not carry his own cross and follow me cannot be my disciple" (Luke 14:26-27).When Jesus says to "hate" your family members, the Greek word doesn't carry the emotion of our English word "hate." A close parallel would be "renounce." We must be willing to renounce any relationships that might interfere with our relationship with Jesus.But that's hard, isn't it? We don't like hard. We prefer easy, manageable, and convenient. We'll hike as long as it's fairly flat. We'll bike, as long as it's not with Pastor Zarling. We'll travel some distance for God, but not as far as Abram did in the Old Testament. We'll carry a cross for Jesus, as long as it doesn't hurt too badly. We'll work together in the church, until someone disagrees with our ideas. We'll worship, as long as the service is under an hour. We'll support the ministry of the church, as long as we have enough for our personal expenses and entertainment. We like the pastor's sermons to be relevant, as long they don't hit too close to home. We are committed to God, as long as it all fits into our packed schedule.We've counted the cost, haven't we? If following Jesus doesn't cost too much money, too much effort, too much time, too much commitment, or too many relationships, then we're fine. But it gets iffy when following Jesus costs too much.We like our Christianity to be easy, manageable, and convenient. We are content with a Christianity with no accountability or requirements. We like our Christianity to be confined to one day a week. We like Christianity that allows us to keep quiet in our culture, keep our head down at work and school, and keep looking the other way as our society promotes the doctrine of demons with so-called "gender-affirming" surgeries, critical theory, and abortion on demand.None of that is true Christianity, though. None of that is what Jesus wants from us.Jesus wants us to put our faith into practice. Like the Lord challenging the Israelites to calculate between life and death. Like St. Paul encouraging his friend, Philemon, to give up the cost of a slave and accept Onesimus as a free man and a brother in Christ. Like Jesus' disciples who had left their boats, their businesses, and their families to follow Jesus. Like two thousand years of martyrs who gave up their lives for Jesus. Like the countless believers through the millennia who were exiled from their community, family, and freedom because they loved Jesus more than their possessions. All because they desired to be Jesus' followers.If you've ever gone hiking with someone more experienced, you will hear them say, "It isn't very far." "It's not too steep." "It's just over the next incline." You realize quickly your "friend" is either lying to you or doesn't know what he's talking about. Jesus is truthful. He's open and honest. He knows what he's talking about when he relates the kind of pain that will accompany following him. Jesus told his disciples of all ages and eras that they are going to suffer in his name. He used the expression, "carry his cross." This cross-carrying entails humiliation, extreme pain, and death. It also implies being treated as a criminal.Why would Jesus' disciples ever want to do that? It's because Jesus has made us disciples into different people. We were once on the road to hell, but now we have the sure promise of eternal life in heaven. We used to live in guilt, but now we live in forgiveness. Being a disciple of Jesus is worth all the suffering. There is glory that will be revealed in us.We are afraid. We are quiet. We want it easy. Let's just admit it … we cannot be the kind of disciples Jesus desires.Except what Jesus desires he also does. Jesus desires us to be his cross-carrying disciples so he makes us his cross-carrying disciples. Not by us volunteering for a cross. But by Jesus placing a cross on our backs. Jesus creates faithful disciples. He changes us into committed Christians.Jesus is speaking to the crowds as he is headed to the cross in Jerusalem. Already from eternity, the Son of God counted the cost. He ran the numbers in collaboration with the Father and the Holy Spirit. He is willing to have his own Father forsake him on the cross. He lays the foundation for the Christian Church upon his death and resurrection. He is the King of Kings who goes into battle against the Prince of this world. It is a battle of the Lion of Judah against the seven-headed red dragon. Jesus is alone – not against 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers, but against a mighty demonic horde from the depths of hell.While the crowds were coming to Jesus to bug him for miracles and divine favors, Jesus wins God's divine favor with the miracle of the Lord of life dying a very human death. While Jesus knows you and I will bug him to make our earthly lives a little more convenient and a lot less stressful, Jesus gives up his life to grant us heavenly lives that will be eternally easy and without stress. Jesus knows how hard it is to renounce our family, friends, or freedom. Yet Jesus renounced it all – family, friends, freedom, glory, power, and his own life. He did this to save humanity. To save you. Jesus counted the cost of your salvation and considered you worth the price of his divine blood.Jesus concludes with, "Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its flavor, how will it become salty again? It is not fit for the soil or for the manure pile. It is thrown away" (Luke 14:34). The American Indians in this area of Wyoming used to get salt form the white alkali on the rims and floors of lakes in the vicinity of Independence Rock. The Indians did not use the salt for preserving meat. Instead, they relied on smoking or drying the meat to make jerky. The Indians would instead use salt for purification rituals, healing, seasoning their food, and for trading. Whether it was in Jesus' time or the time of the American Indians in Central Wyoming, or today, if salt loses its saltiness, then it's useless.With his reference to salt, Jesus is teaching us to persevere and preserve in our faith. If our faith loses its faithfulness, what good is it? If our Christianity is without a cost, how useful is it? If you're looking for easy, Jesus says not to bother following him. Either give it all up or you give up being his disciple. You're either in or you're out. You're either a salty, cross-carrying disciple following Jesus or you're an unsalty, couch potato headed for the manure pile. Our faith functions like salt. It preserves us from corruption and decay. Then we can face each day with fresh confidence.Jesus counted the cost of your salvation and considered you worth the price of his divine life. Now it's on you. Count the cost of faithfully following Jesus. You may lose your relationship with your family, but you retain your relationship with your Savior. You may lose your income or your freedom, but you gain the treasures of heaven and the freedom of forgiveness. You may lose your life, but you have been granted eternal life with Jesus. In these ways, you count the cost and realize you have won everything even as you have lost everything. Amen.Choose life so that you and your descendants may live by loving the Lord your God, by listening to his voice, and by clinging to him. (Deuteronomy 30:19, 20) Amen.View this sermon (with video and/or audio recording) on our website: https://www.casperwels.com/sermons/count-the-cost/

As settlers and prospectors moved into Dakota Territory, conflicts increased between the newcomers and the people who had long called the Great Plains home. The Fort Laramie Treaty of 1851 was an attempt to reduce that conflict and allow for free passage through Native American lands. The treaty established territory for the exclusive use of different tribes. Unfortunately, the terms began to unravel almost immediately. The United States lacked the resources to stop the flow of prospectors and settlers.

Not every eerie encounter is about a ghost that was once human—or a shadow figure lurking in the hallway. In this mesmerizing glimpse into Lakota Sioux belief, we explore a world where “spirits” are far more than just the departed, and encounters in the open plains can be strikingly different from any haunted house. From the ominous “little people” guarding forbidden hills to the inexplicable tall figure strolling across fences, these first-hand accounts challenge what we think we know about “paranormal.”  If you have a real ghost story or supernatural event to report, please write into our show at http://www.realghoststoriesonline.com/ or call 1-855-853-4802!

Nominated for two Academy Awards and for the National Book Award, Sayles is here to announce his latest novel “To Save The Man”.  He will be appearing at the Gallery Bookstore in Mendocino Village on January 22nd.  Sayles has published 8 novels and a short story collection. “To Save The Man” tells the dual story of the Carlisle Indian School and the Massacre at Wounded Knee.  It juxtaposes the life of Indigenous children who are forced to give up their heritage and the struggles of the Native American tribes who are forced onto reservations and allotments in what was known in the 1800s as The Territory.  Sayles talks about his inspiration for the novel, the hardships Native Americans faced, the prejudice and fear of the white population, and the impact on children.  In his novel, he details the lead-up to the massacre and takes the reader through the moments when the US Army gunned down hundreds of innocent Lakota Sioux.  The story is told through the eyes of Carlisle Indian School students.  According to Sayles, Carlisle was the blueprint for the Indian Boarding Schools that sprung up across the US and Canada causing immeasurable hardship to native populations.

One of the most famous battles in the history of the American West took place in June 1876.  An alliance of the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes faced off against the United States cavalry.  The battle was a route and one of the most devastating losses for the American military, as well as one of the greatest victories for Plains Indians.  The victory, however, was only temporary as the victory led to an even bigger response, and the loss was actually glorified in the United States for decades.

The Battle of Wounded Knee stands as one of the most tragic and significant moments in American history, marking the brutal end of a long and painful era for Native American tribes. On December 29, 1890, in the frozen landscape of South Dakota's Lakota Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, a devastating clash between the Lakota Sioux and the U.S. military resulted in the deaths of around 300 Lakota men, women, and children. This event was the final chapter in the Indian Wars, symbolizing the extinguishment of Native American resistance to U.S. expansion.

The Legend of the 13 Turtle Moons is a powerful example of the Indian's belief in oneness with the earth. Look on the shell of most fresh water turtles and you will see 13 large scales. The Indians believe that these 13 scales represent the 13 new moons which occure in nature and make up the full year. Each new moon begins a 28 day "month" - 13 months make up one year (364 days- leaving one day for rest). .  Add to this the fact that there are 28 platelets surrounding the full edge of the turtle's shell- those 28 representing the 28 days of each of the 13 months.  No wonder that the Indians chose the turtle to be the main player in the creation theory which we share here. As for the white buffalo- many northern tribes believe that the rare white buffalo is a signal of change and a time to make peace. These animals are held to be sacred.This is the legend of the white buffalo and the introduction of the peace pipe to the Indian tribe of the Lakota Sioux.

Designed to be a shrine of democracy, Mount Rushmore was one of the most ambitious building projects of the 20th century, and is still visited by millions of tourists each year. But for many, its history is complicated. Carved into a site believed to be sacred for the Lakota Sioux tribe, the monument serves as a bitter reminder of the injustices and crimes committed against the Native American people. So how did this remote, hallowed spot come to be transformed into a monument intended to last as long as the pyramids? What drove the man who created it? And how is it seen today - by America, tourists, and descendants of the first tribes who lived on the Black Hills? This is a Short History Of Mount Rushmore. A Noiser production, written by Kate Harrison. With thanks to Dr Lindsay M Chervinsky, a presidential historian and author of books on the topic, including Making the Presidency.

"I will bury my heart, at Wounded Knee" With Native American culture in free fall in the years following their triumph at the Battle of the Little Bighorn, the rise of the Ghost Dance - a form of spiritual expression that promised liberty from the oppression of 19th century American politics, modernisation and mass entertainment - brought a new hope to the Sioux. Even so, the once great war chieftain Sitting Bull, unable to see visions int the dance, and having allowed himself to be seduced by Buffalo Bill and the mass entertainment industry, found his authority in the Reservation waning. Meanwhile, a plan was being concocted to do away for him once and for all…his fate would set in motion a tragic chain of events that would culminate in a terrible, barbaric massacre at Wounded Knee Creek, where, amidst the bathetic winter snows, it seems that the Lakota had finally met their end.  Join Dominic and Tom for the epic conclusion to their mighty saga on the Lakota Sioux and the American Indian Wars, as they discuss the fate of Sitting Bull, the Ghost Dancers, and their last stand at the terrible Wounded Knee massacre.  EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/restishistory Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! *The Rest Is History LIVE in 2024* Tom and Dominic are back onstage this summer, at Hampton Court Palace in London!

In the wake of the barbaric Washita River massacre, George Custer found himself drifting; addicted to gambling, at odds with his wife, and failing in his efforts to take advantage of the American gold rush in New York. Finally, Custer was sent to Kentucky to suppress the terrible post war fighting there, but again found himself alienated from many of his companions by his controversial views on Reconstruction. Restless and dissatisfied, the chance for danger and action finally came Custer's way, thanks to the ambitions of the Northern Pacific Railway. With plans to build it right across Lakota territory, the venture was intended to and would fatally threaten their way of life, by spelling the death of the bison. With this threat on the horizon, the mighty Lakota war leaders, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse lead violent raids against the survey party sent to prospect the land, hampering and halting their efforts. So it was that in 1873 another expedition was sent, and with it went George Custer, bringing him into contact for the first time with the two mighty warriors who would shape his destiny. A fearful, bloody game of cat and mouse would ensue, culminating in an epic confrontation… Join Dominic and Tom as they discuss the evolution of Custer's career leading up to his first legendary encounter with Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, the incremental creep of the Northern Pacific Railway, and the U.S. Government's secret plan to defeat the Lakota Sioux, once and for all.   EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/restishistory Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! *The Rest Is History LIVE in 2024* Tom and Dominic are back onstage this summer, at Hampton Court Palace in London!

"What would you do if your home was attacked? You would stand up like a brave man and defend it. That is our story."  Following the bloody Fetterman Fight, which saw the Lakota warlord Crazy Horse and his warriors ambush and massacre American troops, the American public was left stunned, its government and civilian population hungry for revenge. In the wake of this a new treaty was signed, further restricting the Lakota Sioux's freedoms, but nevertheless signed by their political leader, Red Cloud. Still, many would not be constrained to reservations, and instead sought war. Chief amongst them was Sitting Bull, a legendary, mythologised figure of the Great American Plains and the Wild West - the embodiment of a vanished age. Born into the Lakota Sioux, and a world of shifting allegiances, violent initiation rituals, and intransigent spiritualities, as a young man Sitting Bull's herculean destiny was sung to him by an eagle. The career that followed in his war against the U.S. government would exceed even the greatest of epics. By 1860 he was paramount leader of the Sioux Nation, when news reached him of the imminent arrival of a survey party, lead by none other than George Armstrong Custer… Join Dominic and Tom as they discuss Sitting Bull's rise, his extraordinary upbringing, and his stand against the increasing encroachment of railroads into his homelands.

Of all the great characters entangled in the story of George A. Custer and the American Indian Wars, few are as captivating as Crazy Horse. A mighty warrior of the Lakota Sioux, and a tremendous military tactician, he was a charismatic but enigmatic figure. The Sioux, of which the Lakota are a subculture, are groups of Native American tribes and First Nations people from the Great Plains. Their way of life was transformed by the introduction of horses to North America, but their nomadic lifestyle and dependence upon buffalo hunting was severely threatened by the imposition of telegraph lines, forts and then railroads upon their lands. So it was that, reluctant to be confined to the reservations outlined for them by the U.S. Government, they decided to fight back, under the joint leadership of the politically savvy Red Cloud, and the fated, fearless, tactically brilliant, Crazy Horse…  Join Dominic and Tom as they plunge into the world of the Lakota Sioux, looking at the history of their people in the American plains, their rich, complex culture and often gory rituals, and the fascinating characters who would challenge George Custer and the U.S. Government.  EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/restishistory Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! *The Rest Is History LIVE in 2024* Tom and Dominic are back onstage this summer, at Hampton Court Palace in London!

Two Native American families have settled a lawsuit against the Cody Kilgore Schools with an agreement the district will no longer cut students' hair without the permission of parents. In 2020 an elementary school secretary cut the hair of the two girls during a check for headlice. The lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union maintained the Lakota Sioux believe long hair is a sacred symbol, only to be cut by select individuals. The school employee's actions, it was argued, violated the Civil Rights of the students.

Sculptor Gutzon Borglum began chiseling the rockface of Mount Rushmore on 4th October, 1927 - the start of a 14 year project to carve Presidents Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson and Roosevelt into the South Dakotan summit. A team of up to 400 workers used dynamite, jackhammers, and chisels to shape the mountain into the iconic presidential faces, and to access the summit, built a staircase and ropes for support, working at dizzying heights of 500 feet above the ground. Remarkably, despite the dangers, not a single fatality occurred during the construction. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how Borglum hotfooted it to the project from a even more controversial one in Georgia; unpick the Lakota Sioux people's legal disputes with the U.S. government over the land rights; and reveal why George Washington's nose was even larger-than-life than the rest of him…  Further Reading: • ‘Sculptor Gutzon Borglum - Mount Rushmore National Memorial' (U.S. National Park Service, 2023): https://www.nps.gov/moru/learn/historyculture/gutzon-borglum.htm • ‘The Making of Mount Rushmore' (Smithsonian Magazine, 2011): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-making-of-mount-rushmore-121886182/ • ‘The dark history of Mount Rushmore - Ned Blackhawk and Jeffrey D.

Native activists and entertainers are among those being caught up in a recent push in several states to curb events connected to 2SLGBTQIA+ issues. A library in Montana canceled a lecture t by a Native Two-Spirit writer and activist because organizers were worried it would violate the state's new ban on drag performances in public spaces. For the start of Pride Month, we look at the new hurdles Native 2SLGBTQIA+ people are facing.

The headlines that day were about a movie star dying. But Paul Walker had been a lot more. For those familiar with the "Fast and Furious" movies that he was famous for, his death was especially jarring. Because of the way he died - a high-speed accident, the exotic race car that he was in exploding in flames; eerily reminiscent of the movies that made him famous. But in the days that followed that initial shock, people were actually focusing on Paul Walker the man, not just the movie star. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "What You'll Have to Show for the Life You Live." Well, Paul was remembered as a humanitarian. I guess he used his wealth to start a charity that provided disaster relief around the world: in tornado-ravaged Alabama, in Indonesia after that great tsunami. He was on the ground personally right after the Haiti earthquake. When he died, he was returning from his charity's fundraiser to help victims of a Filipino typhoon. And since his then 15-year-old daughter came to live with him, he was learning to love what was becoming the best role of his life - Dad. I was reminded of what it says on my own dad's grave, actually, by this. To most, my dad was known for the leadership positions that he rose to in his life. But his headstone only has two words on it besides his name - "Husband," "Father." After all is said and done, that's what lasted. Other people could have held the positions he had, but no one else could have been my Dad, and he was a good one. Soon after Paul Walker's death, I watched a wife and three sons pay tribute to their husband and father who had just died in another high-speed crash. This time it was a speeding train in New York City. They said, "We just wanted everyone to know what a great husband and dad and person he was." It's all made me think again about what really matters. And it's underscored what may be the two greatest issues in our life. Which, strangely, we seldom think about: legacy and eternity. The Lakota Sioux have a proverb that's tattooed in my mind: "We will be known forever by the tracks we leave behind." For the most part, those tracks won't be accomplishments. It will be people. Like Paul Walker's daughter and those three sons of the man in the train wreck. The seeds we plant in the souls of our family will blossom long after we're gone; seeds of love and integrity and character, or seeds of selfishness, anger, and hardness too. As philosopher William James said, "The purpose of life is to live it for something that will outlast it." That's the lives we invest in, not the loot we accumulate or the lists of our achievements. And then there's that issue of eternity. See, often, death comes suddenly without time to prepare. And the Bible reveals what's on the other side. Hebrews 9:27, our word for today from the Word of God puts it this way, "People are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment." Some of my worst nightmares have taken me into important situations where I was caught unprepared. A test, a speech, a major event; those were dreams. What's far more significant is the reality of being prepared for whatever's on the other side of my last heartbeat, because that's going to last forever. Legacy. Eternity. The things that will matter after we're gone should be what matters while we're here. How do we prepare for judgment on the other side of our last breath? Well, the Bible says that we all face the judgment; the death penalty we've earned for running our lives and hijacking our life and doing it our way instead of our Creator's way. But then, that's why Jesus came. Because the Bible says, "He carried our sins in His own body on the tree." He went there to die my death penalty; to take my hell so I could go to His heaven. The only way to be prepared for the final exam before God is to ask this Jesus to be your rescuer from your sin and to put all your trust in Him. If you've never done that, would you tell Him today, "Jesus, I'm yours." Please go to our website. It's ANewStory.com, and you'll see there how you can get this settled this very day. There is no greater peace than knowing that you are ready for eternity however it comes and whenever it comes.

Think about how cool circles are. Now think about applying those to your life. We read in the scriptures that this life is one eternal round. What does that mean exactly? I don't know. But for a minute, Cherry Menard and I talk about what it might mean. It might mean being able to see across time to those before who are holding onto us here and now, and maybe being able to see across time and holding onto those who will come after us. Maybe we're all focusing on the Savior at the same time. Maybe we should be moving with one heart. Maybe as we move our circle's shape goes a little "uncircular." Maybe a goal is to make it that perfect wheel, with Jesus as the perfect center. Maybe. Maybe we can work on our part of the circle right now.
