With things getteing worse, Indians did rituals, like the Ghost
Dance, to hope events would get better for them. As it the ritual was
going on, Sitting Bull had gotten shot by a police. This action struck a
chord between the Native Americans and the white Americans. In
December of 1890, the Seventh Calvary, Custer's regiment, took the
Sioux tribe to Wounded Knee Creek in South Dakota. The troops made
them give up their weapons, later they had shot the Native Americans.
The seventh Calavary had slaughtered 300 Native Americans, ending
the Indian Wars.
