Wounded Knee Interview - Radio From Hell X96 Sundance 09

[AdrienneAnn]

Stanley's version of the events at Wounded Knee 1973 paint a partial, heavily biased picture. I was one of the 11 hostages taken the night that AIM came into our home town. We were terrorized, bullied and threatened. I was assaulted by the guard put there to protect us. I was 12... We were sympathetic to the plight of our People, not so to the use of violence by our AIM brethren.

@AdrienneAnn It was a dark day when we were abused by our own...and then misrepresented to the media by the ones who abused us. Wounded Knee was gutted by the takeover. Families and friends torn apart and scarred by the violence perpetrated by AIM and it's supporters. The past cannot be changed, however, the truth of what took place at Wounded Knee in 1973 should be sought out and revealed from all sides, which this filmmaker did not do. It was such a disappointment...

By blood we are Ojibway--but early in adulthood Gpa chose to spend his life among his Sioux brothers and sisters. Gpa spent decades collecting Sioux stories and artifacts to preserve the heritage, and share the stories in the Museum at Wounded Knee and his book. The hope was that thru education and example non-Indians would understand what happened to our tribes via the genocidal policies of the US Gov't, and we would find a way to recover through our native rituals.

Not a true account, if you believe as Nelson did, that the real story of secret murders behind the barriers and people being raped and assaulted by AIM thugs were not an essential part of the story. The cover-up continues...
