Sitting Bull mementos returned to his family by Smithsonian museum
By Randolph E. Schmid
Washington, D.C. (AP) Mementos of Sioux Chief Sitting Bull, whose warriors won one of the American Indians’ greatest victories against U.S. soldiers, were returned to his family during December at a ceremony in a quiet corner of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History. “I appreciate from my heart what the Smithsonian has done,” said Ernie LaPointe, Sitting Bull’s great-grandson. “My great-grandfather stood for the freedom of the land, he stood for his people, and he was murdered for this,” LaPointe said. “He stood his ground until the end.” |
