35 tribes are located in OK I will not go into the history of them having their land stolen or the Trail of Tears....I am sassuming your your familiar with this era.


Crap! I can't do that...

The fact the their indiginous language survived at all is amazing given the "English only" "schools" that the white man forced on the tribes. Lets see we stole their land, attempted this type of BS once before to the extentt that we coerced, forced and at times kidnapped their children and forced them to change their names and their language and sever all ties with the "reservation indians" otherwise known as their families while training them for jobs that would never come because of "white" only laws. AND you're offended becuase they don't want to give up their language. Does it hurt you? Does the fact that they want just a tad of respect in some way diminish the coutnry? Your neighborhood? Your world?


Like it or not Native Americans are the ones who are truly native to these lands and if you do not want to afford them this much after all that has been done....
