"Wounded Knee" Series at Eiteljorg

The Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art has a film series this month on the Wounded Knee massacre in 1890. First up is "The Ride to Wounded Knee", described as a searing documentary on the last armed conflict between the Dakota Sioux and the United States, which resulted in the deaths of more than 146 men, women and children. You can see it at 2 p.m. Saturday (5 January) at the museum, 500 West Washington Street, Indianapolis. Charge for the film only is $5, or you can attend as part of the museum admission price. Other films are 12 and 19 January, with a symposium on the topic scheduled for 26 January.
