I pochi ancora vivi vengono portati a #PineRidge in una fredda chiesetta sul cui pulpito campeggiava uno striscione 'pace in terra agli uomini di buona volontà'..
Furono conferite 20 medaglie d'onore ad altrettanti soldati responsabili di questa strage.

I'm Lakota, and my ancestors survived wounded knee while many died. People may ask: Why even bother reascending medals of dead Union soldiers? #removethestainact is important because it's about the survivors as much as those lost. It's about healing, respect & acknowledgement
Congress should pass the #RemoveTheStainAct , which would revoke the Medals of Honor from American soldiers awarded for the slaughter of hundreds of Lakota people at #WoundedKnee . Check out this important video from Four Directions Native Vote to learn more. (1/3)
The speaker who receives the biggest standing ovation that day is Marcella LeBeau, a 101 year old Native American Army veteran who served in World War II on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day, the largest military invasion ever assembled.

Time won’t erase this stain, only action will. We were proud to sign onto a letter last year calling for passage of the #RemoveTheStainAct . It’s time we make it right.

The Native nations deserve reparations and recognition of their suffering. Hiding our history won't help.
#IndigenousPeoplesDay #RemoveTheStainAct
#RemoveTheStainAct to be considered by Senate (Elizabeth Warren & Jeff Merkley) too; House has a version that was introduced by Rep. Deb Haaland & Denny Heck.
Perhaps the only obstacle in the way of both bills & Congress is the commander-in-chief, Donald J. Trump.

Wounded Knee was a massacre, part of the ethnic cleansing/ genocide of the Indigenous populations of the American continents. #RemoveTheStainAct #Warren2020
