38 + 2: Healing and reconciliation
After a hiatus, horse riders resumed a tradition to remember the Dakota men hanged by the U.S. Government on December 26, 1862, in Mankato, Minnesota.
The original organizer of the ride, Jim Miller, died in March 2023. A new group of riders has now taken up the task and reformed under the name Makatoh Reconciliation and Healing Horse-Ride.
The renewed ride goes from the Crow Creek Sioux Reservation in North Dakota to Minnesota.
Join Native America Calling to hear from the riders about the journey and the history they are highlighting.
Also, check up on the work to have the federal government rescind the medals given to the U.S. Army soldiers who participated in the Wounded Knee Massacre on December 29, 1890.
