- Description:
- The original Oglala residents in Wounded Knee have presented an ultimatum, stating that they will stack all unlawful arms in a teepee and place the sacred pipe at the front door before allowing certain individuals to enter. They are demanding that federal forces retreat to a position out of rifle range and that the Chiefs and Headsmen of the Oglala Sioux make all decisions for the nation. They are also requesting food and gasoline to be brought in and stating that the FBI will not be allowed in until certain individuals have safely returned.
