A municipal park near Mount Kato in Mankato which went by various names is now officially Mni Wašté Park, pronounced “mini wash-TAY.” In Dakota it means “good water.” https://www.mprnews.org/story/2023/08/22/mankato-city-park-renamed-in-dakota-language-to-mni-wat-park

Visitors to Minneapolis' Stone Arch Bridge often gaze at the St. Anthony Falls, the downtown skyline or the area's famous flour mills. Just downstream from the falls is the empty space in the Mississippi River once occupied by Spirit Island, a sacred site for Dakota people. It gradually disappeared between the 1890s and the 1960s as it was quarried for limestone and then dredged to further navigation of the river. https://www.startribune.com/minneapolis-spirit-island-dakota-history/600298046/

A lone tired Dakota sioux is traveling back from long day distances.
This is for my father Rob for Father’s Day.

"The center ... has a long history of teaching students about Dakota people..."
This is the first I have heard of it. There is a lot I am unaware of.

I'm glad Xcel is paying more but I wish we had a solution for the storage of nuclear waste.

Worth noting is that only the 11 federally recognized tribes were represented. I saw no mention of the Mendota Mdewakanton Sioux who reside a mile or two from where I live. They have been seeking federal recognition for many years.

By my reading of that and subsequent actions by the white American government, by the time the American "frontier" reached Minnesota fifty years later, it was a foregone conclusion the Dakota would be displaced and genocided.
