Barack Obama traveled to a
Native American reservation in North Dakota, his first visit as US
president to "Indian Country," where he focused Friday on education and
economic development.
The president, accompanied
by First Lady Michelle Obama, visited the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe
reservation in the central far northern state.
The Sioux, which include the
Lakota and Dakota nations, are the people of Sitting Bull, the chief
famous for his victory over the US cavalry in the 1876 Battle of Little
Bighorn. (AFP)
