Added 2023-03-24 17:04:42 +0000 UTCThis is one of the most emotionally intense episodes I've ever recorded. My voice cracks in a few spots.

2023-03-31 20:35:47 +0000 UTCThank you for taking the time to tell this story, I’m left thinking about each episode I finish for the rest of the day. I’ve done 23 laps around the sun and the fact that I’ve never learned about what happened at wounded knee is kinda shocking to me, after going through the American school system, and the US army. In fact while I believe I may have learned it at some point and forgot it, at some point but, listening to the episode 4 I had the recollection that it was actually battle, and the shocking realization listening to episode 5, as you’re describing the conditions prior to Wounded Knee, and the realization that they were conditions to a massacre not a battle was truly horrifying. More horrifying still was the realization that the attempt but the Army and United States to paint it as a battle, still effected me to this day, to learn men were awarded Medal of Honors for such an event made me disgusted. This is such a great podcast series ❤️
