Sitting Bull was born in 1831, when he was a child he was nicknamed Hunkesni which means slow. As he got older he earned the nickname Tatanka Iyotanka after he defeated the "Crow" a enemy of his tribe the Sioux. Sitting Bull played many roles in his community and to his people. He was not only a leader but he fought as a warrior, and aided the sick and weak. He stood up for Native Americans as the whites tried to invade and take over their land. Sitting Bull disliked the whites very strongly, but was forced to surrender to the federal government. He was killed by Native American Police in 1890.
