The Lakota Sioux Indians the leader was chief sitting bull and The 7th cavalry commanded by Samuel Whitside!
The specifics of what provoked the battle at Wounded Knee are in dispute among historians. Historically, it is known that Samuel M. Whiteside and his cavalry came across a group of Sioux Indians. It is theorized that there was no immediate conflict until a Sioux chief Yellow Bird began to chant and dance calling spirits that allegedly made them bullet proof.
The death or murder of Chief Sitting Bull was the catalyst that started the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890. The murder of Wesley Bad Heart Bull in 1973 led to another battle at the Wounded Knee memorial.
The Americans fight the last war with the Indians. It started with the murder of Big Foot. He was the chief. The soldiers told them to drop their weapons. A deaf Indian did not know what they said so he didnt. When the Americans tried to take it away he brought it down and it miss fired. The war was started by an accident.
He was shot by police from the reservation during an attempted arrest to prevent him from supporting the Ghost Dance.

It is wrong to think that the Oglala Lakota only ever had one chief. They have been around for many hundreds (perhaps thousands) of years, so there have been many Oglala chiefs during that time; furthermore they had many different levels of chiefs from war chiefs and band chiefs to council members.Just a few historical Oglala chiefs at different grades and in different time periods are:Black BirdHard HeartLone BearLast HorseBlack BearJack Red CloudLittle WoundConquering BearShot in the EyeRed Fish (an Oglala chief around 1840)American HorseCrow DogCrazy Horse (a minor war chief until he was stripped of his status)Young Man Afraid of His HorsesBig RoadRed DogHe DogBlack TwinLittle HawkRed CloudBlue HorseThree BearsYellow BearOld SmokeSurrounded By EnemyCecilia Fire ThunderTheresa Two Bulls
