"The Dakota 38 Execution" was the largest mass execution in the United States and took place on December 26th 1862. On the day after Christmas, in 1862, 38 Dakota men were hanged, under order of President Abraham Lincoln. The hangings and convictions of the Dakota 38 resulted from the aftermath of the "U.S.-Dakota War", of 1862, in southwest Minnesota. In addition to the 38 men hanged the day after Christmas, there were other terrible injustices committed against 265 other Dakota people. There were also, military convictions, physical, mental and sexual abuse, prejudice.. and other inhumane injustices done, to more than 3,000 Dakota people who were held captive, then "forced" to march west, out of Minnesota. The conflict erupted, when treaties restricted the lands of the Dakota People to an area "that could no longer sustain them". "Promised" compensations and annuities were slow or, "non-existent" and the Dakota people feared starvation, heading into a brutal Minnesota winter. The Dakota people also faced terrible racism, with one white settler, store-keeper Andrew Myrick historically quoting: “Let them eat grass.”
