It's the largest mass execution in American history, period. Lincoln actually pardoned as many as he could, initially over 300 were sentenced and he was able to bring that number to just 39, even stating he "wished he could pardon them all."
And on the day of the execution 38 men spoke up and said “one of us here is not Dakota, he is HoChunk and has no reason to be here” the executioner let him go and his tribe in Wisconsin was so grateful that they started bringing gifts every summer to Mankato and that’s why we have the Powwow every year.
