Thank you for sharing your story, Michele! How wonderful that you have cousins (by marriage) who have continued the history of the Lakota Sioux to your husband and you. Imagine how different life would be if all the treaties our government signed never had been broken.

Yes, very different. I have started to read a book called Unworthy Republic which is about moving indigenous people out of the eastern half of the country and across the Mississippi. I have had to lay it down because it was making me so angry. I did enjoy a history of the Lakota and learned a great deal that I didn't know. It is written by someone at Oxford which did surprise me a little. When I look at climate change, the results of which are upon us in Oregon, I think we could use the outlook of indigenous peoples about our treatment of the planet. This is one of the reasons that the obstruction of the Rs makes me want to weep and also makes me very angry.

Thank youтАФadding Unworthy Republic to Mount Books.
Angry and sad at the same time. I think many of us could learn a thing or two from these good people.
