Declare the site of the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre a National Monument. Pine Ridge Reservation South Dakota.

The site of the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre– and the Sioux uprising of 1973 - should be a National Monument.– It deserves more respect than to be auctioned to the highest bidder
There is no arguing the site's historical significance. Over 300 unarmed Native American men, women and children were killed at Wounded Knee.
Wounded Knee, a plot of land on the Pine Ridge Reservation that is currently owned by non-Native American ,James Czywczynski, is considered sacred ground by the Oglala Sioux Tribe.
Tribal members and descendants have reached out to President Barack Obama to make the site a National Monument, which would better guard it against development and commercialization.
We the People can make this happen!
