Page history last edited by Josiah Dillon 13 years, 6 months ago

@Sioux4life: being forced onto a reservation with non-communal ownership of land doesn't sound like assimilation to me. I want the sun dance, communal ownership and freedom. #NOTcitizenship (Jenna L.)

 

@AntiDawesNative: Woke up one morning and all my land and culture was gone. What do you mean I have to cut my hair? #ijustwantmylifeback (Sarah B.)

 

@ChiefRedCloud: I have never thought the day would come where I could not share with my brothers what I have, the land has no owner. @ChiefJoseph may have had the right idea. (Cassie B.)

 

@SittingSingingRock: Cant live on the land my great great great grandfather moved onto #Whack and oh by the way, government just made me change my twitter name, go follow my new twitter, @PatrickRockefeller, theyre terminating this account. (Josiah D.)
