But as I researched that book the question that kept coming back to me was why did they do that Because at the time of the war they were completely at peace with the Americans around them They had adapted beautifully They were prosperous cattlemen They were raising cattle They had silver tea sets for pizza They were more prosperous than the whites who were living in the area They threatened no one They were living on lands that the whites didn't want Why then Why force them in What's the reason And the only reason I can think of was the little bighorn This year before this humiliating defeat at the hands of the Lakotas and the Cheyennes With that the government said okay that's it Everybody even our best friends have to give up And they have to come in into reservations where we will control them They'll control them and then force Christianity on them as well Have you seen Taylor Sheridan's series 1923 It's a prequel to Yellowstone Have you ever watched any of those
