Storyline
Mary Crow Dog, daughter of a desperately poor Indian family in South Dakota, is swept up in the protests of the 1960s and becomes sensitized to the injustices that society inflicts on her people. She aids the Lakota in their struggle for their rights: a struggle that culminates in an armed standoff with US government forces at the site of an 1890 massacre. Written by Eric Sorensen <Eric_Sorensen@fc.mcps.k12.md.us>

Lakota woman is about Mary crow dog's experience living on a reserve, attending residential school and then becoming apart of the American Indian movement.
It is in my opinion an excellent film to watch and definately gives you a history lesson about the aim movement and the seige that took place at wounded knee.
If you have not seen Lakota Woman go out and rent this film it is an uplifting and genuine true story
Irene bedard's portrayl of Mary Crow dog is true to what Mary 's character really is. I think it deserves 10 stars **********
