Ernie LaPointe and Cedric Good House — Reimagining Sitting Bull, Tatanka Iyotake (April 19, 2012)

from On Being · host On Being Studios

Sitting Bull is best known for defeating General Custer at the Battle of Little Bighorn. But for many Lakota, his resistance to federal appropriation of sacred lands reflects humility towards the land and compassion towards his people -- with his death 120 years ago being his ultimate moment of sacrifice. We explore Sitting Bull's spiritual legacy as a force for identity and healing among the living.
