A weathered rose sits on the grave of James Cornman at the Carlisle Barracks Post Cemetery in Pennsylvania on Sept. 5, 2024. James was one of three Oglala Sioux students who died while attending the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in the late 1800s and is among 11 Native youths disinterred from the Carlisle cemetery starting Sept. 6, 2024. They are being repatriated back to their homelands. Along with James, the remains of Oglala students Samuel Flying Horse and Fannie Charging Shield have been returned to Pine Ridge for reburial.
