Who is consistently advocating for the Native Americans? No one! Why? Why is it that during the 1900's all other races in the United States were given equal rights? Why is the only face not included in President Obama's Cabinet one from a Native American Tribe? The Native Americans continue to stand apart from real help. They continue in endless litigation processes before the U.S. Congress and U.S. Senate. This whitepaper, written as a partial requirement in a Master's Degree program, was also written to help create a case for civil society by advocating for real justice on behalf of the Native Americans. It was also written to encourage philanthropic efforts on their behalf.

I wish people would stop using the term “Reverse racism”. Racism is racism. Period. Caucasians do not have a monopoly and using this term is just stoking the fires.

Otherwise, good post.

You don’t believe that the American indian only had stone tools? What do you think their tomahawks and knives and were made of?

Until Europeans brought steel tomohawks and knives, stone. Obsidian makes a fine knife or hatchet blade; or arrow head, while we're on the subject.

Obsidian

For those of you in Rio Linda, that's glass.

Yeah I am a knife guy, you can purchase them today, or find your own and wrap a handle around it.

RE :”Ansel12, don’t start with what someone should or shouldn’t post. What’s the matter? Are you terrified you might actually learn some REAL history that might not fit your agenda?”

You are OK, :)
