🧵 This weekend, I covered the return of nine children to the Rosebud Sioux tribe after 142 years. The return is part of a deeply tragic history where the US government would rip indigenous children away from their families, tribes, traditions to give them a white man's education
The nine children, along with so many others, died at the Carlisle Industrial Indian School. It took 142 years for them to come back home and was part of a six-year process kicked off by the Sicangu Youth Council to return the remains.
On Friday, the caravan carrying the children stopped in Whetstone Landing, which is the last place the kids saw their families before getting on a steamboat. An emotional ceremony was held where relatives were able to have the first meal with the children. argusleader.com/story/news/loc…
