Perry Ray Robinson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: In a letter dated 29 December 1974, Cheryl Robinson wrote that she'd been informed Ray Robinson had backpacked into Wounded Knee during the night in order to avoid checkpoints and was later shot for not following an order to immediately report to one of AIM’s co-founders.[8] On 11 March 2014, the FBI released documents confirming the death of a Black civil rights activist during the 1973 occupation of Wounded Knee.[2] A memorandum from the FBI dated 21 May 1973 reported an Indian woman who departed from the village had enumerated 200 Indians, 11 whites and two blacks. Robinson had reportedly been accompanied to the siege by a Black female. While she returned from the standoff, he was nowhere to be found.[9] Robinson would later be declared legally dead.[10] However, to this day, the whereabouts of his body are still unknown.[11]
