The insignia on this jacket was created especially for a group of Lakota youth runners from Standing Rock Reservation, South Dakota, to commemorate the 1990 centennial of the death of Sitting Bull. On December 15, 1890, fearing the leader's influence and endorsement of the Ghost Dance messianic religion, Indian Agent James McLaughlin sent policemen to arrest Sitting Bull. In the ensuing scuffle, Sitting Bull was shot. In 1990 the young runners ran ahead of the Big Foot Memorial Riders as they crossed the reservation during their commemorative ride toward Wounded Knee.
