USA Women

Esther, R.I.P.

A year ago, the young indigenous woman Esther Wolfe was shot dead in the street.

One year ago today, the young Lakota Esther Wolfe fell victim to a “public execution”.

Esther was one of the many missing indigenous women – for nine long days and nights. That was how long her former partner held her captive and brutally abused her. After that, Esther called herself a “survivor”. She made her journey to the Spirit World in Rapid City, South Dakota, on February 21, 2024 at the age of 25. I interviewed her there in December 2022. You can find the text and interview that I posted after her murder here.
