SUMMARY:Love and Loss After Wounded Knee: A Book Talk with Julie Dobrow
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, May 27 at 7pm at the Clapp Memorial Library\, Tufts University Professor Julie Dobrow shares the tumultuous and storied lives of Charles Eastman\, and his wife\, Elaine\, former Belchertown residents. Like most star-crossed lovers\, they came from vastly different worlds. Elaine Goodale\, a white woman who grew up on a farm in the remotest part of the Berkshires\, was a poet\, writer and teacher who’d come to the Dakota Territory in 1884 to teach Native American children. Ohíye S’a\, or Charles Alexander Eastman\, was a Santee Sioux\, born in Minnesota and one of the only Native Americans educated at Dartmouth College and Boston University Medical School. He’d come to Pine Ridge as a reservation physician. Elaine and Charles improbably met in December 1890\, and more surprisingly\, fell in love. And then the Wounded Knee Massacre happened\, and changed everything. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing.
