I’m a 60 year old mutt. My family heritage is primarily Irish, English and Swedish. I’ve always been interested in Native American history and I’m amazed at how much has been left out of the schoolhouse history lessons. The more I learn, the more I want to just kneel down and pray for forgiveness. Not necessarily for me, but for the souls of those who participated in such ruthless acts towards mankind. It breaks my heart. No-one owns the earth we walk on. I wish there was something I could do to assist the family tree survivors from the list of Native Americans who were killed and injured.
The One God man above has them now forever
They will live forever in hearts and minds of all people
