Great Chief Blue Horse

Great Chief Blue Horse (Šúŋkawakȟáŋ Tȟó) (c. 1822-1908) was a respected Oglala Lakota leader, warrior, and statesman from the Wagluhe Band, famous for his role in the 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie, his service as a U.S. Army Indian Scout, and his efforts to protect his people's land, even being known for saving white settlers, earning him fame in portraits and history alongside his brother, Red Cloud, in their fight for Lakota heritage.

Key Aspects of His Life:
Treaty of Fort Laramie: Blue Horse was a signatory to this pivotal 1868 treaty, which granted the Lakota ownership of the Black Hills and vast hunting grounds, though it was later violated.
U.S. Army Indian Scout: He was among the first Oglala Lakota recruited as scouts, forming a close bond with the U.S. Army and even traveling with Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West show.

Leadership & Education: He served as Chief of the Wagluhe Band and was involved in efforts to educate his people, working alongside his brother, the famous Chief Red Cloud.
Legacy: Blue Horse's life mirrors the struggles and resilience of the Oglala Lakota through the 19th century, balancing warfare, diplomacy, and cultural preservation.

He fought his whole life to end slavery and endentured servitude of indigenous people, long after the Indian American war was lost

Blue Liver

When a guy is out with his spouse or girlfriend and she is ok with him having one alcoholic drink. Anything after that is going to upset her. It is the equivalent of just the tip.
Scene at a nice restaurant:

Jonnie, I am going to have a drink, do you want one?

Yes, I am going to have a martini then a wine at dinner,

Jonnie, I said just one!?

Girl, why you trying to blue liver me tonight?
