You have brought this history so vividly to life, that it feels as though it happened fairly recently, which only emphasises our sadness and pain. That you have now finished your story is also sad: it has been the podcast of the year, for me, at least.Thank you very much.👏👏👏

Very well done. I can't imagine that I would've sat through 11 hours on a topic in which I was already well versed, but that I did. Despite being well read on this topic, I managed to pick up new details, and you managed to keep it interesting. As an American, I can say I am impressed by your perspectives and that you have correctly picked up on the nuances in this inevitable clash of cultures that many miss.

I heard a story about a Navajo tour guide who was telling a gaggle of tourists in Navajo country a tale of a Navajo princess and a young warrior with some supernatural elements, blah blah. Afterward a tourist approached the guide and said he’d heard a remarkably similar tale from a Hawaiian guide while in Hawaii. The Navajo laughed and said he himself is a tour guide in Hawaii in the winter and the guides casually swap and retrofit such tales for the local they are working.

Absolutely great podcast Ive read several books on this topic and some of the details you guys discuss here really bring these characters to life! Great job. As for Americans current view on Native American history, we have been given the guilt trip (correctly) for decades by Hollywood with films like Little Big Man, Dances With Wolves, Avatar, etc etc. Colombus day previously is called Indigenous Peoples Day and yes Thanksgiving always brings up the realities of how thankful those pilgrims acted several years after the first thanksgiving (celebrate with a decapitation anyone!?). American guilt is widespread in this issue

New subscriber from Texas. Great explanation of the "Last Stand." I have visited all the places Custer ever served. I'm originally from Michigan. My studies of Custer at the Horn do show that Custer was, as in your discussion, attempting to surround the woman and children to get the warriors to surrender. Custer had used that maneuver in previous scenarios. Look at the Battle off Washita in Oklahoma. Approximately 700 Indian horses were killed after the battle. Custer was a fascinating character. Where did Custer get all the money for expensive photographs taken of himself? I know he left debt. I think his own book, "My Life on Plains" offer great insights as does his wife Libby's book about the Plains.

Thank you for this brilliant conclusion, gentlemen. You've created something heartfelt, insightful, memorable--and fitting. I visited the site of the Wounded Knee Massacre in July 2009. It was one of the saddest, most depressing places I have ever been. The reservation itself was severely depressed economically, so there was a deep sense of despair and total poverty. But it went beyond that. There was a terrible pall overhanging the spot where the massacre itself took place as if the ghosts of the Lakotas and the troopers who died there still haunted the site.

The Hotchkiss guns used at Wounded Knee were not "machine guns." They were breech-loading mountain guns firing a small shell (1.65 inch). They were deemed "rapid fire" in comparison to earlier muzzle loading cannon or cannon with heavier shells, but the breech had to be manually opened and a shell inserted to be able to fire. They had both explosive and canister rounds. A five barrelled "Gatling " type revolving Hotchkiss existed but these were not at Wounded Knee despite some internet claims.

Every American knows the names Sitting Bull and Custer and Wounded Knee and Little Big Horn, and the general history of the Native Americans' relegation to the reservations. But the devil is truly in the details, and this was just a fabulous, informative and well-researched series. It amazes me that there aren't millions of subscribers to this channel.

Great vid! Thank you! Buffalo Bill came to London and performed at the Earls Court exhibition centre ... several native Americans died whilst in London and were buried in Brompton cemetery ... In the 1990s Native Americans came from the US and exhumed the bodies to take them back home. There was a religious service at St Luke's Church in Redcliffe sq. Sadly one of the bodies could not be found. It's fascinating how close to us in time this is ... It's also fascinating how history repeats itself ... all this is happening now ...

Absolutely brilliant ending to a great series on the natives of the Great Plains, well done gentleman! 🏆 Point of information: The Hotchkiss Mountain Gun was not a machine gun or Gatling gun. It was a 42 mm rifled canon which shot a 2-pound projectile, which in some ways is even more horrifying, as it was designed to replace the 1841 Mountain Howitzer (a 12-pounder). Imagine being hit by a 1.65 inch, 2-pound projectile, not a pretty image. I've attached a link to a short video clip. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4OrhK1-oNOkg6c

On the guilt issue, I dont think the Native guilt is as big as the slavery guilt mostly due to the black Americans much greater influence on American society post slavery (music, sports, politics etc). Also there is the out of sight out of mind issue, Native Americans mostly have stayed in their reservations and if they have come out have been able to mix in easier than Black Americans who did not have reservations and often moved in big block migrations first from the south into urban areas for industrial jobs ie Chicago, Oakland and then back into South in places like Atlanta, these migrations were large and fast and therefore whipped up anti-black sentiment quickly in mostly white areas. These large migrations did not happen with Natives.

Aggressive and abusive treatment of the next generation of children in the Residential Schools. The new kids were treated with "save the soul, kill the Indian" including physical punishments for speaking their own language. It wasn't that the Christian-Catholic god was nicer... more like the priests continued the brutality. Growing up the children were denied access to their culture while being fed the colonizer's ideology. Something that is being undone in places like Canada's "Truth and Reconciliation" efforts.

I have enjoyed very much listening to your series. No serious disagreements with much of what you presented, other than alluding to Custer's "presidential aspirations" (no real historic basis for this assertion). What happened to those nomadic people groups who came to North America before the arrival of the Europeans is certainly lamentable, but no more so than the victims of other clashes of civilizations and cultures (e.g., Genghis Khan, Muhammed, Alexander). There was never going to be a good outcome for all parties to the conflict. So too, while the deaths of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull as relatively harmless prisoners might be considered tragic, no more so than the death blows that they, and others, inflicted upon those who were not/no longer capable of harming them. Violence does beget violence, and they were violent men. The human race is truly a violent race.

I would love a western film to be made about the massacre of native Indians and the cavalry and the white man to be portrayed as the villains. I’m not sure if it would be received well in Hollywood and in the cinemas. However, I think it’s time the story was told. I must admit I’ve watched westerns when I’ve been left with a lot of sympathy for the Indians. They’ve portrayed overly keen commanders or corrupt reservation agents as the villain. Included in the story was a central Indian character, who had to take his people to the reservations or be massacred after standing ground on the plains. Americans are so proud of their constitution- Everyman is equal etc however, we know when to this day, it’s not true. I think more people should hear the story and stop seeing the natives of any country, as the savages.
