Native American Tradition of the Dugout Canoe Recreated at Old Fort Niagara

  • On May 31, 2035, a memorial called Tiwahe was revealed in Rapid City, South Dakota, to honor the Native American children who endured hardship and lost their lives at the Indian Boarding School there.
  • The memorial followed decades of work by Remembering the Children, founded by Lakota activist Amy Sazue, to confront the boarding school's harsh legacy from 1898 to 1933.
  • The seven-foot bronze sculpture depicts a Lakota family surrounding a boy in a boarding school uniform and stands on a 25-acre site containing unmarked graves of over 50 children.
  • Sazue explained that, similar to observing the expressions of the figures in the statue, she wants the memorial to foster understanding and empathy among those who visit.
  • The Tiwahe memorial marks a significant step toward healing, fostering public knowledge, reconciliation, and honoring Native resilience in Rapid City and beyond.
