Well i'm Indian 1/4 Lakota, Hunkpapa..my Gramma was Full-blood. we are the ones who kicked Custer's ass...and now are forced to live on some of the poorest places in the country.
Pine Ridge
The Pilgram and Indian *and yes we call ourselves that,whoever said it's not politically correct never met a real one of us*.. was a good thing..the bad part started past plymouth rock... when it was an issues of "who's land is it anyway"..
so without getting into a huge political debate.. this is considered the "National Day of Mouring" for Indians or Native americans.. whichever you prefer.. we certainly are thankful for what Mother Earth has given us, and for the Great spirit to watch over..
so those of you who Celebrate, have a HAPPY..
