Résumé

Injustices against Indian Lakota men visiting bars and saloons in Midwestern towns bordering the Indian reservations, such as white men murdering these Indians and only receiving a manslaughter charge rather than a first degree murder led to the Custer Courthouse Confrontation at the Custer County Courthouse in Custer, South Dakota, on Feb. 6, 1973, in which a riot involving 200 Indians, including members of the American Indian Movement (AIM) and large numbers of policemen broke out, both inside and outside the courthouse.
Read in this informative report about how the FBI COINTELPRO program was behind starting this riot, which would have not occurred to begin with had the large group of Indians been let inside the courthouse to demand that the murderer of Lakota Wesley Bad Heart Bull, Darld Schmitz, be given a first degree murder charge rather than a second-degree manslaughter charge. Darld Schmitz murdered Wesley Bad Heart Bull in the parking lot of Bill's Bar in Buffalo Gap, South Dakota, on January 27, 1973.
Read about how these types of injustices and other policies of mistreatment against Indians led the American Indian Movement (AIM) and 200 Oglala Indian supporters of AIM to occupy Wounded Knee on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, which was the site of the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre, which was the slaughter of approximately 150-300 Lakota Indians by U. S. Army troops in the area of Wounded Knee Creek in southwestern South Dakota.
Read about the outbreak of gunfire between the American Indian Movement (AIM) and U. S federal forces during the 71 day occupation of Wounded Knee from Feb. 27, 1973 to May 8, 1973, as well as the ceasefires and eventual negotiations to end this conflict that was instigated by AIM in an effort to preserve American Indian dignity. Also find out what members of AIM were killed by gunfire during this nationally televised event that was part of the sixties and seventies protest that was occurring during the Vietnam War.
Learn how FBI COINTELPRO operations in which infiltrators working for the Bureau such as Douglass Durham spread rumors among this American Indian civil rights organization that other members of AIM were were undercover police to cause American Indian Movement (AIM) members to shoot each other or even murder one another as part of the program to dissolve the political group. Read about what happened when the American Indian Movement occupied the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) office in Washington D.
C. from Nov. 3 1972 to Nov. 9, 1972 as part of the Trail of Broken Treaties caravan and protest.
