The captivating account of a young nurse working for the U.S. Public Health Service at the Lakota Sioux Rosebud reservation hospital struggling to stay afloat financially in 1973-1974. It was a turbulent time. Members of the American Indian Movement at the nearby Wounded Knee Reservation had precipitated an armed standoff with the FBI. Nancy Palker, her colleagues, and her friends on the reservation, navigated day-to-day stresses together by exploring the Lakota culture-music, dance, artwork and storytelling-with curiosity and humor. Nancy returned to the Badlands and Rosebud in 2016 to find that the Rosebud reservation and hospital continue to struggle socially and economically. Magic and Tragic Rosebud concludes with a guidebook on how the reader can take action today to provide assistance to the Native American communities of the Great Plains.
