From the Paper:

"The final scene shows Crazy Horse putting up one last fight against those who have been out to get him for so long. They are trying one last time to get him to surrender himself, but he refuses. Surrendering to the white men would be a rejection of all the morals that he upheld throughout his life. This would mean that he would not die as a hero but as an anti-hero. He would be giving up all that he stood for and would forsake those who followed him."
