This Expedition was in complete violation of the 1868 Treaty. Custer trespassed and cause a firestorm of trespassers after reporting gold in the Black Hills.
Since 1874 Billions if not Trillions of dollars have been generated from the Natural resources that have come out of western SouthDakota.
Native People in South Dakota are among some of the most impoverished people in the country. The amount of Commerce coming from western South Dakota should make the Native People amongst the richest. Native People should not be struggling in order to exist.
