the sand creek massacure happened in 1864
The Sand Creek Massacre in 1864 elicited outrage among many Americans, particularly those opposed to the violence against Native Americans, leading to increased scrutiny of U.S. military actions. Conversely, the Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890 was met with a mix of horror and indifference; some Americans condemned the brutality, while others viewed it as a justified end to Native resistance. For Native Americans, both events deepened feelings of betrayal and loss, solidifying resistance against U.S. expansion and exacerbating the trauma within their communities. These massacres became pivotal in shaping perceptions of U.S. policies towards Native Americans and fueled ongoing struggles for rights and recognition.
The Sand Creek massacre occurred because the Arapaho and Cheyenne people were destroying white settlers' property. Later Black Kettle, an Indian chief, asked for peace, but General Chivington said there could be no peace. A battle broke out and many people were killed. People on both sides were killed but far more natives had their lives taken. Some people said that General Chivington should be punished for killing so many, but charges were removed and he was not punished. The tragedy at Wounded Knee occurred when Sitting Bull, chief of the Lakota Sioux, was blamed for leading the Ghost Dance, a spiritual dance that wished for more Buffalo and no white settlers. Soldiers tracked Sitting Bull down and, in an exchange of gunfire, he was killed. Native Americans were mournful that their great, brave chief was dead. They loved Sitting Bull and were very sad at the news of his death.
He was responsible for the Sand Creek Massacre as the Colonel commanding the Colorado Volunteer Militia.
