Today is the anniversary of the 1864 #SandCreek Massacre. Cheyenne and Arapaho people, many of them women children & elders, were murdered and mutilated by white soldiers.
Col. Chivington told the soldiers to 'Kill 'em all, big and small, nits make lice.' nativenewsonline.net/currents/novem…
#OnThisDay in 1864 the #SandCreekMassacre was committed, planned in large part by the person often associated with founding DU, John Evans. It's our duty as an institution to learn about and to learn from this tragedy, and to carry the lessons from it into our current efforts. twitter.com/badwinds/statu…

Lauren Diane @BallinBabe00 Start looking into the massacres of native Americans. 90% of Native Americans were wiped out by white immigrants because they wanted our land. After we taught them how to survive in our territory. #sandcreekmassacre #woundedknee
Violence and massacres are not new to this country. Brutal violence is embedded in US settler colonial culture and history, with centuries of utter barbarism directed against Indigenous and Black people in particular as well as many others. #SandCreekMassacre
Today is the #SandCreekMassacre anniversary. #NorthDakota remembers it by attacking & starving #WaterProtectors via #MortonCounty #NoDAPL
I never learned about the #SandCreekMassacre in school and I grew up in Denver. I didn't learn about this act of terrorism until 7 years ago. Now I tell everyone I can about it, especially the young people with whom I work.
This Colorado history needs to be taught in schools.
Mkay Jason S. Campbell It was their god given right to use native toddlers as target practice, apparently.
Rejoice!

On this date, 1864, the u.s army massacred a peaceful Cheyenne & Arapaho village, killing up to 600. Two-thirds were women & children. The chief raised a white flag of surrender. Fleeing inhabitants were shot & the village was burned to the ground.
