If I am remembering correctly, it was supposed to go on a different route, but white folks objected, so... I had a unpleasant encounter with a Lakota this last week, and I do understand his anger. He accused me of all sorts of things including racism which is not one of my faults. We were on a thread of one of my husband's Lakota relatives who thankfully defended me and blocked him. I don't know what he does about his first name which sounds English or his surname which sounds Scotch-Irish. One of the things I told him is that I could write a book on how this country was built on slavery, genocide, and stolen land. I personally am mindful of the latter and also the sacredness of the earth. I have gardened for over 50 years with that in mind and have gratitude for what I am able to harvest and often share with others.
