Opinion | 'I was blown away by the extensive Sand Creek Massacre exhibition at History Colorado. The museum has gotten the story right after ... failing miserably to do so in 2012 by not consulting with the Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes.'
Soule refused to take part in the carnage and was eventually murdered on a Denver street, possibly for reporting the truth about the massacre during his public testimony before a military inquiry.
In a separate area from the Sand Creek installation, History Colorado also tells the story of the Ute people, the state’s longest continuous residents who settled here nearly three centuries before Europeans showed up.’s “The Indigenous Peoples of North America” permanent collection is a moving display that includes videos of Indian artists talking about creating works that teach tribal history and inform about contemporary tribal life.
The issue of invisibility is also on the mind of Helen Munoz . “Even though we live on reservations and you don’t see us, we’re alive and thriving too,” she said.Many beautiful works of Native art can be found on several floors of The Martin Building at The DAM.The haunting 7-by-11-foot painting evoked an overwhelming, almost unbearable feeling of sadness.
No doubt the anguish etched on the faces of Canadian mothers in “The Scream” was also felt in Colorado.
