The Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890 marked a tragic culmination of tensions between Native Americans and U.S. settlers, effectively signaling the end of armed Native resistance in the West. This event reinforced the perception of Native Americans as a defeated and marginalized group, paving the way for further westward expansion and the assimilation policies of the U.S. government. The massacre also highlighted the violent consequences of expansionist policies, leading to increased scrutiny and eventual reforms regarding Native American rights and treatment in subsequent years. Overall, Wounded Knee symbolized both the culmination of expansionist efforts and the profound consequences for indigenous populations.

Differing views on white settlement in the West fueled tensions between Native Americans and settlers, leading to the Massacre at Wounded Knee. Many settlers believed in Manifest Destiny, viewing westward expansion as a divine right, while Native Americans saw their land and way of life being violently encroached upon. The rise of the Ghost Dance movement among Native Americans, perceived as a threat by U.S. authorities, escalated fears and ultimately resulted in a tragic military response. This clash of perspectives culminated in the massacre, symbolizing the broader conflict over land, culture, and sovereignty.
