Sioux
Not simply
Dakotas, but the seven
fires include
Lakotas and
Nakotas. They had many famous leaders beside
Sitting Bull, including
Crazy Horse,
Spotted Tail, and
Red Cloud. Existing in the present, so it is uninformed to say they were defeated at
Wounded Knee. Also, the term is
derogatory to many
Native Americans as it is a corruption of an
Ojibaway word meaning
snake.
