Who are you showing off for? Are you reading from a book?

A few summers ago I rode horse back from Canada to Custer's Last Stand to commemorate the massacre. Many of the different tribes are Christian, while keeping alive their separate identities. I had a lot of respect for Crazy Horse after riding those hills around The Little Big Horn. The hills are more like cliffs, they rode these at a gallop bare back. The conscripts did not have a chance. It's haunting to see the graves and the places where they fell.

Crazy Horse was not plagued by doubts about who he was, unlike the white man who ponders his belly button until it turns inside out. White settlement on the western plains would have taken a far different course without Indians guides.

To answer your question, I don't know why the Indians at Medicine Wheel call themselves Nakota. I'll ask them and get back
to you.
