Sitting Bull was a prominent Lakota Sioux leader who became a key figure in the resistance against U.S. government policies and encroachment on Native American lands in the Great Plains. His leadership during the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876 symbolized Native American resilience against the forced assimilation and displacement caused by westward expansion. Sitting Bull's efforts to unite various tribes also highlighted the profound cultural and social changes occurring on the Great Plains as Indigenous peoples faced increasing pressure from settlers and the military. His legacy remains a powerful reminder of the struggle for Native American rights and sovereignty during a transformative period in U.S. history.
