[QUOTE="NDNgirl4ever, post: 44111880, member: 84266"] I've noticed the lack of attention as well, and yes, it makes me sad that we are ignored. People don't want to acknowledge the wrongs that were (and continue to be) done to Indian people. There are a lot of people out there who have no idea who Sitting Bull, Sequoyah and Geronimo were. There are people who have no clue as to what happened at Wounded Knee in 1890 or 1973 and if you ask them about the Trail of Tears, you'll get a blank stare. I've heard of Non-Indian people who think that the Cherokee's lived in Tipis, and are suprised to find out that we wear blue jeans, shop at Wal-Mart and drive cars! Indian people are ignored a lot, and I am tired of it as well. I love the graphic by the way. It's very true. [/QUOTE]
