2) Wars for the West

It is 1875, and you are a member of the Sioux nation, and the U.S. government has asked you to leave your land (after initially promising not to take it away from you) because they have discovered gold in the Dakota Territory. Some Sioux leaders want to stay and fight, but others say that too many people will die. What would you do, and why? (3-4 sentence response)
