Now, I have completely agreed with your greviances, as an Indian, and said
that the gov't is required to make things right , because of the
Constitution. Why do you have to throw in something like sterilizing 40% of
the modern Indians, That has not happened.
The gov't did have a hand in killing off many (most) Indians, and stealing
your land through broken treaties. But, I'm going to need more than a
left-wing newspaper article to believe that we (the gov't) sterilized 40% of
the few of you that were left. If they did that successfully, why did they
not do it to "blacks" when they were in the unfavorable column? It wasn't
possible.............
p.s. My cherokee friend was not at boarding school. His father was a cop.
My friend played all sports, was in the normal clubs, did all of the normal
stuff. He was proud of his Cherokee heritage, but he was just one of the
guys. Maybe, today, he looks at it differently, I don't know. 'haven't
talked to him in decades.....................................
