Day 18 (D-43) Crazy Horse

Crazy Horse, a legendary Oglala Dakota warrior (1840-1877). Lakota Chief Crazy Horse fought to preserve his people's way of life by protesting the takeover of Lakota lands and the forced movement of Lakota Indians to reservations.

No work for me today.  Take a look at this site. http://www.biography.com/people/crazy-horse-9261082
There are four short videos.  I suggest that you watch and listen (sorry, no subtitles, but the Native Americans speak slowly and the two historians also speak slowly.)  Then read the text.  So interesting, and good practice to improve your English, even if you don't understand everything.  

My best, 
Jane
