In this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring on Sungmanitou Tanka to discuss the 50th anniversary of the Wounded Knee Occupation in 1973! We talk about the causes, the events themselves, and the legacy with 50 years of hindsight, a very important discussion on all of these fronts. Sungmanitou is of the Oglala Lakota Nation, is one of the hosts of
Bands of Turtle Island, and has recently also taken over the
Marx Madness Podcast. Listen to the season of
People's History they are putting together that goes much more into depth on the events of the Wounded Knee Occupation. Also be sure to follow the Chunka Luta Network (
