"In The Shadow of Wounded Knee: Life on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation"


3 of 12

At the Ghost house in Maderson, S.D. (a few miles down the road from the Wounded Knee Massacre site) 15 people live in one 3 bedroom home. In this image a young couple sleeps in the living room under a flag that represents the end of the "Trail of Tears." Most people lucky enough to have housing on Pine Ridge live in overcrowded homes, with 2-4 families living in each. Most houses have no electricity because ther eis no money to pay the bills.
