Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee
August Schellenberg previously played Sitting Bull in both Witness to Yesterday (1973) and Crazy Horse (1996).,The newspaper story being viewed after the Custer battle (Virginia newspaper?) has a dateline of July 3, 1876. The first published account of the event was put out by the Bozeman newspaper (the Times?) on July 4, 1876. Late on July 4, (7:00 p.m.) the Helena newspaper produced a special, extra edition, and at this time, the AP correspondent relayed the material to Salt Lake City, where it was then distributed around the country. The "Virginia" newspaper of the July 3 date could not have contained the story. (Information from searches of archives on the Internet.),Sitting Bull: Take your soldiers out of here. They scare the game away.
Col. Nelson Miles: Very well, sir. Tell me, then: how far away should I take my men?
Sitting Bull: You must take them out of our lands.
Col. Nelson Miles: What precisely are your lands?
Sitting Bull: These are the lands where my people lived before you whites first came.,Featured in The 59th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards (2007),Hunting Song

Performed by Chevez Ezaneh,I've studied the events that lead up to the Wounded knee massacre, and I have to say you have to give a hand to this film. They kept to the books for the most part, and 99% of the film is pretty much exactly what happened in real life. To understand that this happened in the year 1890 sure is disheartening, seeing as when you put it into a broad perspective, that wasn't that long ago. We all take for granted our core values and beliefs, and this film hits close to home. You feel empathy and heartbreak over what only one tribe of American Indians went through, you open your eyes to what happened to all of them as well.,
