Today is a somber day in our tribe's history as 38 men were killed in the largest execution in American history. The 38+2 - two more men were hanged later in different locations - for their alleged roles during the Dakota-US War of 1862.

@timtrudell lived in Mankato for 20 years. The amount of people in that city who don’t care about the history and who brush it off like it never happened or wasn’t a big deal was stunning.
