You bring up something interesting. While I was living on the Blackfeet
Reservation ( in Montana), I learned that the boarding school program you
referred to was very successful there. In fact, it was white historians who
got together with all of the elders and preserved the stories, songs, and
culture in general, and then later taught it back to the younger generation.
'course, they don't like being reminded of that... <G>

We have never been of the whine and snivel type <g> We've begun using the
courts, the Constitution AND the UN.
And, yup, I'll bet your friend did consider himself "white" because that was
a way to survive. AND, also a wanted result from the boarding schools.
The boarding schools didn't take with us so well. In fact, just made most
of my aunts and uncles and cousins, etc. more anti-white, anti-christian.
Of course, part of it might have to do with those nice christian folks
killing my uncle.
Nope, we aren't multiplying like other folks. The government went out of
their way to be sure the red folks couldn't multiple. When you sterilize
over 40% of any given ethnic population you kind of put a crimp in their
reproductive activies. Guess they were scared that we viewed them all as
more potential Custards and might invoke more Ghost Dances <g>

P.S. Don't anyone going assigning tone to these e-mails. I'm just sharing
facts and writing as I would speak if we were all sitting around the
woodstove sharing some pasta e figoli (made using my smoked turkey broth)
with hot garlic bread (dinner tonight <g>)
