And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Chief Red Shirt, Oglala Sioux.
Red Shirt served as an official Sioux chief during two peace delegations to Washington. In 1887 he toured with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Red Shirt, South Dakota is named after this man.
This guy looks every single inch a chief. I'm sure he made an impression in Washington.
