Here's the first paragraph of the article: [blue][i]"It's a frigid morning two days after Christmas. Deep inside South Dakota's Pine Ridge Reservation, a group of 72 Lakota Indians is standing beside their horses while their breath rises in the icy air. Most of the riders are boys and girls, some as young as 7 or 8, and they have covered hundreds of miles across the frozen prairie during the last 11 days. Most of them are tired, and all are cold. There's not time to waste, however, because they still have a long way to go before they reach their destination: the site where several hundred of their forebearers were slaughtered on an equally bitter morning almost 114 years ago."[/i][/blue] It goes on the tell about the story of the massacre of more than 300 Indians at Wounded Knee and of this new generation's effort in making it a symbol of healing and renewal. When I read this I thought of Bill Miller and I remember him telling us that in the next few years we would see the beginnings of some wonderful healing across this land....I'm wondering if this is what he might have been talking about.
