This is part I of a short documentary surrounding the causes of the occupation of Wounded Knee in 1973. Modern Native American history largely goes unmentioned and is briefly discussed. Part I is short, and is not the whole story, but provides some insights on the conditions that Native Americans have faced from the 19th century to present. I am still editing this version, so if anyone has comments or believes there may be inaccuracies let me know. Thanks for watching.
