Chief Joseph
Chief Joseph, whose real name was Hokowon, was a prominent leader of the Lakota Sioux tribe. Known for his leadership and pursuit of peace, he led the Sioux in their resistance against white settlers. During the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890, he was forced to surrender and later led his people to be relocated to Oregon. His story has become a symbol of the Lakota's struggle and assimilation into American society. more
