Death of a Proud Eagle

The story, Death of a Proud Eagle, is the story of three native American Honored Viet Nam vets. The story begins at the counsel chambers of the Counsel of Nations (the group directing the actions at Wounded Knee) the evening of May 9th 1973. They had come together to increase the awareness of the American public about the social living conditions of Native American across this great country. Unfortunately that night their hopes were not fulfilled as those who had held the Wounded Knee supply store for 71 days, Surrendered to Federal authorities. However, Jim Proud Eagle, Paul Great Bear, and Wes Otter Speak were not ready to capitulate. As they traveled through the night they began putting together plans for a new action, and action that no one had ever tried before in history. An action that they were willing to give their lives to accomplish. To capture the White House and the President of the United States without violence within the grounds of the White House. An action that will send Wes and his love (Patricia Michaels) on a journey into the mountains and legends of his homelands.
