The Battle of Wounded Knee occurred on December 29, 1890, as tensions escalated between the U.S. government and Native American tribes, particularly the Lakota Sioux. The conflict was triggered by the U.S. Army's attempt to disarm a group of Lakota, who were participating in the Ghost Dance movement, which sought to restore their way of life and bring about a spiritual revival. The situation escalated into violence, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of Lakota men, women, and children, marking it as a tragic end to armed conflict between Native Americans and the U.S. government.
