Sitting Bull - LIES!
🕑 Added 2024-03-29 14:30:01 +0000 UTCπ Welcome Extra Historians to our Sitting Bull Lies video! Where we talk about the mistakes we made and the details we couldn't quite squeeze into our Sitting Bull series. With questions like, how all those shots could have missed Sitting Bull in episode 2? Why is "Giving them Ears" used as such a creepy way to say killing people? And what was Sitting Bull's relationship with the Crow?

Hey, could I say Iβm really worried about the four episodes thing that means weβre cutting out important information that should be there because the stuff you said that was cut out that couldβve been in a fifth episode add more character to sitting bull it showed that he got angry but since itβs now only four episodes per series, information is getting cut

I would love to see a series or at least a two-parter about Buffalo Bill and his Wild West Show. The glamorization of the "Old West" just when it was dying out (probably BECAUSE it was dying out) is a fascinating topic.

About the erasure of Native Americans: It has occurred to me that in the musical OKLAHOMA, we don't see a single one. Where are they?! My conjecture: "Poor Jud," the villain, is either a Native American or of mixed race -- but only implicitly, not overtly identified as such.

There is a story that the day after the Battle of Little Bighorn, Sitting Bull visited the site of the battle, where he met Custer's ghost, who, apparently, told him that he wasn't angry about the whole getting killed and mutilated thing. Another story states the Supreme Chicken itself briefly accompanied the 7th Cavalry for part of the way towards the Little Bighorn battlefield, but, upon seeing the size of the Native American camp, and realising that angry Sioux warrior vs. chicken was going to be a very one sided fight, it chose to turn around and creep away very slowly, hoping nobody noticed it.
