Wounded Knee was a symbolic site because of the Wounded Knee Massacre, which took place there in 1890. The massacre occurred on the Lakota Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. The massacre was the culmination of a more than 20 years of intense warfare between American and Native American forces. Efforts to stamp out Native American resistance, especially proponents of the Ghost Dance, a ceremonial dance originated by the Pauite prophet Wovoka which centralized figured prominently in this event. Determined to root out the practice, US army troops pursued 250 Lakota to Pine Ridge. After a disagreement and scuffle, the troops opened fire and killed more than 250 defenseless children, women and old people. AIM considered this site sacred ground and occupied it to dramatize the need to address the plight of Native American people.
