After the Wounded Knee Massacre in December 1890, where U.S. soldiers killed hundreds of Lakota Sioux, there was widespread outrage and condemnation of the U.S. government's actions. The event marked the end of the Indian Wars and led to increased calls for reform in Indian policy. In the aftermath, many Native Americans were further marginalized, and the U.S. government intensified efforts to assimilate Indigenous peoples into American society, often at the expense of their cultures and traditions. The massacre remains a significant and tragic symbol of the brutal treatment of Native Americans in U.S. history.
