when i went to school i had to place my hand over my heart and recite the pledge of allegience to the flag. then i had to sing my country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty.' i used to wonder what ever happened to the indians. now i know. it's like waking up from the matrix. i realize now that all my life i was lied to by my parents, teachers, preachers and government. yeah, i'm PISSED! at least i'm awake now. what can i do? the indian boarding school history is heartbreaking. what can i do?

May the Great Spirit of all things rest your heart and mind. You are the people of this land, may your tongues never be silenced again and may your language be heard from mountain top to the great oceans. Amen.
My grandmother survived this disgusting experiment. All problems Indians have today are traced to the abuse they suffered and learned in these concentration camps. This must be taught in our schools; the silence is deafening, and shameful. Time for this govt. to take the consequences of these disgusting actions.
