Summary

The Sioux want a spirit shirt returned from Glasgow.

The Wounded Knee Survivors' Association, who commemorate the battle in which many of the tribe of the Lakota Sioux were killed, want Glasgow Museums to return a Ghost Dance shirt, which is important to their religious beliefs, and which Buffalo Bill brought to Glasgow in 1892. They want everything which was stolen after the Battle of Wounded Knee returned to Dakota.
