Bury my heart at Wounded Knee

December 29, 1890 was the Wounded Knee Massacre, Wounded Knee SD. This video compilation provides a haunting - and not necessarily accurate - viewpoint of the incident that marked the end of the "Indian Wars" across the American West. Of particular note is fact that this 2007 HBO TV movie (from which these images were taken) was shot near Calgary and with a number of Aboriginal Canadian actors. (I also like the accompanying soundtrack "Lithium" by Evanescence)
