SUMMARY"The limp came from Wounded Knee" (claim under test, Nov 3, 2026). Tito: "They say the limp black ppl have is imitated from wounded knee."
SEARCH RESULT: no published source found yet tying the walk (the "pimp walk," "dip," "cut walk") to Wounded Knee (1890); needs deep research (oral history, Black and Lakota community accounts), not "no record."
RECORD, the walk is older than 1890: Ira Berlin, Many Thousands Gone (1998, p. 254), describes northern Black Americans after the Revolution with a "swaggering gait"; the 1830s minstrel caricature "Zip Coon" mocked the strut of free Black city dandies. Linguists (ADS-L, 2008) find no settled etymology for "pimp walk."
KILL

TEST (Rule 15)if the swagger is on record before Dec 1890, it cannot have started at Wounded Knee. The claim could survive in a narrower form: a later style, or a meaning added after 1890 (honoring the wounded, the Ghost Dance step), which would need its own receipts.
STATUS: Open, leaning against the origin claim; keep the "older walk" receipts as Record.
