The author of “Memoirs of Chief Red Fox” is a Sioux 101 years of age who remembers the Battle of Little Big Horn and life on the North Dakota plains. Born June 11, 1870, Chief Red Fox is a rich guide through the oral history of the Sioux nation as he speaks of his youth, his uncle Chief Crazy Horse, his father Black Eagle, and about the Sioux way of life. This interview, with Bill Schechner, was conducted in 1971, a few years before the U. S. attacks on the American Indian Movement and the people of the Pine Ridge Reservation had intensified. Chief Red Fox speaks at length about the battle of Little Big Horn, known in the U.S. history books a Custer’s Last Stand. The last twenty minutes of this tape are unbearably squeaky so it may need to be baked.
