Today we mourn those who were killed and vow to never forget the horrors the U.S. government has inflicted on our peoples.

We were never meant to survive, and yet, we are still here, fighting.✊🏽 #SandCreekMassacre #Colonialism #NativeHistory

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1864, the US military attacked a peaceful band of #Cheyenne and #Arapaho people who were flying an American flag in the #SandCreekMassacre. 170 unarmed people were butchered. The chief had recently signed away 90% of his land when gold had been found on it.
