Minnesotans commemorated the 150th anniversary of the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862 to acknowledge and reflect on the complex and often painful history between the Dakota people and European settlers. This commemoration served as a means to honor the lives lost during the conflict and to foster understanding of the lasting impacts of the war on Indigenous communities. It also provided an opportunity for dialogue about reconciliation, healing, and the importance of remembering history to inform present and future relationships.
