which of these native American figures is most interesting?

[dpopiz]

I have to write a bio about one of these people:
red cloud
crazy horse
sitting bull
black kettle
geronimo
cochise

which one of them is the most interesting?

 

[vi edit]

Crazy Horse has his own mountain sized monument 🙂

That has to say something about him.

Geronimo, he was a badass. He had two countries (US & Mexico) after him.

I don't know who's most interesting, but they only call him Black Kettle because Black Pot said so.

 

[gistech1978]

cochise, because he has the coolest name

 

[KGB1]

Sitting Bull 🙂

Of those I would say that Geronimo was teh most interesting. Too bad they limited you....I would have suggested Wovoka to you if you could choose from anyone. Interesting guy....My Thesis was about it.....well him and the Ghost Dance Religion.

Geronimo. I'd recommend reading up on him, or if you're the cliff's notes kind of guy at least see the movie.

Too bad they didn't let you do Chief Joseph.

I am tired of fighting. Our chiefs are killed. Looking Glass is dead. Toohoolhoolzote is dead. The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say, "Yes" or "No." He who led the young men [Olikut] is dead. It is cold, and we have no blankets. The little children are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food. No one knows where they are -- perhaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever.

A great speaker and one of the best military minds this country ever produced IMO. Though some dispute this and say it was others who actually planned and led the campaign to remain free.

Chief Joseph

Red Cloud. My great grandfather helped build his first house. I can even send you pictures of it. Other than that I know nothing about him.

Edit: info on Red Cloud
