His courage that day and his testimony after the event saved countless lives and led to the federal government’s acknowledgement of the attack as a massacre. \nOur panelists discuss his legacy and relevance today. \nA book signing with Nancy Niero\, author of Witness at Sand Creek: The Life and Letters of Silas Soule will follow the discussion. \nThis event is made possible with the generous support of the Rocky Mountain Land Library\, the National Western Center\, and the Boulder Bookstore.
