That Crazy Horse!
Crazy Horse was born as a member of the Oglala Lakota circa 1840. By the time he was in his mid teens, he was already a warrior, and his bravery was well known throughout the Lakota people.
It is well-known that many Native Americans refused to have their picture taken or likeness made, as they believed that their souls would be taken. Crazy Horse was killed by an infantry man on September 5, 1877.
Sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski decided to created a monument of Crazy Horse to honor the principles and values for which Native Americans stood.
This monument has been in progress since 1948.
