MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History January 8, 1877: Crazy Horse and his warriors fought their final battle against the U.S. Cavalry at Wolf Mountain, Montana Territory. Just six months earlier, Crazy Horse and Chief Gall had led Lakota, Cheyenne and Arapaho warriors in the routing of Custer and the 7th Cavalry in the Battle of Little Bighorn. Many bands of Sioux and Cheyenne had returned to the reservations to get food and supplies in preparation for winter. However, Congress had demanded that they cede the Black Hills in exchange for these goods, and they replaced the civilian contractors in charge of these supplies with army soldiers. This convinced many people to avoid the reservations and mistrust the U.S. government even more than they already did. Then, in December, U.S. troops defeated Sitting Bull’s band, as well as Dull Knife's Cheyennes, who had trekked through snow to join Crazy Horse. Considering their weakened condition and the approaching winter, Crazy Horse tried to negotiate peace with the army. The army responded by murdering Crazy Horse's delegation. Consequently, they continued fighting. The final battle occurred on January 8, 1877. While only 3 people died on each side and the battle was essentially a draw, the U.S. treated it as a strategic victory in light of their recent humiliation at Little Big Horn, and because it showed they could avoid defeat under harsh winter conditions.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>indigenous</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/littlebighorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>littlebighorn</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/crazyhorse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crazyhorse</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sioux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sioux</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cheyenne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cheyenne</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/custer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>custer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/blackhills" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blackhills</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/treaty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>treaty</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nativeamerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nativeamerican</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/genocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>genocide</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History June 17, 1876: U.S. army soldiers attacked an encampment of Lakota and Cheyenne in Rosebud, South Dakota. Led by Crazy Horse, the native warriors routed the Americans. The Cheyenne called it the Battle Where the Girl Saved Her Brother because the fight involved Buffalo Calf Road Woman, who courageously road out into the middle of the battle, grabbed her brother, and carried him to safety. The area had been promised to the tribes through treaties, signed after they had won previous battles. However, when gold was discovered in the Black Hills, the U.S. government wanted the land. Buffalo Calf Road Woman also fought at Little Bighorn, alongside her husband, Black Coyote. She was the one who struck the blow that knocked Custer off his horse, resulting in his death.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nativeamerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nativeamerican</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>indigenous</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lakota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lakota</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cheyenne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cheyenne</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/southdakota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>southdakota</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/crazyhorse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crazyhorse</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BuffaloCalfRoadWoman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BuffaloCalfRoadWoman</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/littlebighorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>littlebighorn</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/treaty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>treaty</span></a></p>
