EAGLE BUTTE, S.D. - For the last 50 years, Bradley Upton has prayed for forgiveness as he has carried the burden of one of the most horrific events in U.S. history against Native Americans, one that was perpetrated by James Forsyth, his great-great-grandfather.
This week Upton, 67, finally got an opportunity to express his contrition and formally apologize for the atrocities carried out by Forsyth to the direct descendents of the victims at their home on the Cheyenne River Reservation in South Dakota. During an event on Wednesday on the reservation, Emanuel Red Bear, a teacher and spiritual advisor, told descendents that they deserve Upton’s apology.
“I prayed for the next 50 years for forgiveness and healing for all of the people involved, but particularly because my ancestors caused this massacre, I felt incredible heaviness,” he said.
