The Ghost Dance Movement was a religious ritual where Native Americans would either stand or sit in a circle and perform a certain dance which would later contribute to the Lakota resistance to assimilation under the Dawes Act.

At Wounded Knee Creek, it would result in the many deaths of Native Indian women, children, and men. With this it was the final conflict between the US and Sioux and with that it led to the downfall of the Native Indians.

Custer led an expedition to the Black Hills in search for gold and when it was found battled Sioux for Black Hills until it was confiscated from the Indians in 1877

To a degree, in order to get along, people must assimilate due to respect and that is what would lead to a peaceful transition. The individuals desires are to be fellow citizens and with assimilation they feel that.
