Tiwahe Pays Tribute To Children Who Died While Attending Boarding School

June 6, 2025 Darren Thompson, Last Real Indians. , , , , ,
On Saturday, the unveiling of "Tiwahe" brought hundreds together to pay their respects to children who died while attending boarding school a century ago. Tiwahe, meaning family in the Lakota language, is a bronze sculpture that memorializes the nearly 50 children who died while attending the Rapid City Indian Boarding School. The sculpture is on land placed into trust of the Oglala, Cheyenne River, and Rosebud Sioux Tribes, where the boarding school previously operated. “Where the past meets the future is right now,” said Dr. Donald Warne at the “Remembering the Children Memorial” dedication.
