On This Day

February 27

Followers of the American Indian Movement seized the village of Wounded Knee today in 1973, beginning a 71-day occupation. Between 200 and 300 AIM members arrived in Wounded Knee the day before for a meeting to discuss grievances with the tribal government. Fifty U.S. Marshals were dispatched following the takeover. The next 10 weeks were marked by paramilitary activity in which two Indians and two federal marshals were killed. The occupation ended May 8.
