[QUOTE="GigageiTsula, post: 44113638, member: 244035"] The most frustrating part of all of this for me is the ignorance so many non-natives have of American Indians or of Indigenous people, in general. No, NDNs do not live in tipis or spend all their time in Casinos. Here are more common myths about American NDNs, [URL="http://www.nativecircle.com/mlmEverydaymyths.html"]Mistakes, Lies & Misconceptions[/URL]. No, many non-natives have no idea who Sitting Bull, Red Cloud, Sequoyah, Geronimo, or even Crazy Horse are. Non-natives, in general, I think, see no point or significance in learning about Americans Indians either. Nor have any idea about Wounded Knee or Sand Creek, most do not care to know either. It does feel good to finally have the opportunity to talk about these things, especially with someone who understands what all of this feels like. [/QUOTE]
