Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee2007

Gall:
There were no early crops. Now there will be no late crops. Does it seem to you that our coffee rations are smaller?

Sitting Bull:
Why do you tell lies about my part in the fight at the Little Bighorn?

Gall:
It was Agent McLaughlin. You angered him. He made me say these things against you.

Sitting Bull:
How can this be? All our lives, we were like brothers, sharing meat when we had it. When we had no meat, and when food was but a day's ride to an agency, we could not be made to take from the whites!

Gall:
I will go and speak straight and set things right.

Sitting Bull:
These words cannot be put back. I have said all I have to say.

Gall:
My brother, listen to me. Many would have taken from the whites for all those years, but they did not because you did not. I did not because you did not. Before you came, I was Big Man here. But now you've come and you do nothing. You sit and tell stories while I work my fields. You go with Cody, you write your name on a piece of paper and you take money - money that I must sweat for. I do not understand why you feel so honored by these things. I do not understand why you've come, because to me you are Sitting Bull, our leader who would never surrender. That is all I have to say.
