Ep 20: Search for Absolution

  • Summary

  • We are coming toward the end of this story. A few more episodes and the events of the tipi in the shantytown will have been told. This episode will end with the murder of Mister Lee, followed by the chaotic aftermath and the eventual demise of The Hill itself (albeit over a year later).  

    But it is not the events, the facts, that are difficult to narrate. It is the painful task of trying to make sense of it all, to analyze and reconcile what it is we did, our actions as well as our non-actions, that caused us to bury the archives in our basement for 30 years. 

    In this episode, we examine the motivation behind our road trip to the Wounded Knee site and Pine Ridge, and then recount the heartwarming, absurd, frightening, foolish, metaphysical events that led up to the tragic day that marked the beginning of the end of the tipi on The Hill.
