Black Elk Speaks isn’t alone in that the book Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee by Dee Brown, includes some of the same techniques. Brown also ensures that the information and people are accurate and reflect the story. Although the similarities between Black Elk Speaks and Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee are plentiful in numerous effective ways of telling a story, Black Elk Speaks uses perspective, language and resources that correspond to the theme and message of the book and reflect it in the more refined way of the two.
