On This Day

September 20

Oglala chief Red Cloud was born today in 1822 near the North Platte River in Nebraska. From 1866-1868 Red Cloud led a series of attacks against the United States that resulted in Indians retaining much of their land, including western South Dakota. After Custer found gold in the Black Hills, Lakota leaders Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull also led attacks, but Red Cloud sought peace. In 1877 Red Cloud was moved to the Pine Ridge Reservation, where he lived the rest of his life.
