I loved the show Wounded Knee. I was adopted by a white family and all my life I was told, "Why don't you pass as white?" I have black hair, black eyes and olive skin. There is no way I can pass and I have no desire to pass for white. I am proud to be Lakota. I tried to leave high school when the Wounded Knee occupation happened. My mother told me that there was no way I could leave. And that the occupation was stupid!!! I missed out on a lot of my history growing up. I am still trying to catch up. Great job on the show!!!!!
