American Indians should not be depicted ... in rural settings We all remember the great Cherokee nation in downtown Manhattan. :)
This is so silly. Every place the American Indians lived was in a "rural setting".

The differences in people and cultures and places were the stuff which allowed imagination to flourish. I loved to daydream about other lands and other ways of life when I was a kid. I cannot imagine growing up without the wide variety and richness of reading materials I was exposed to. It is much more than a disservice to deny children the truth along with all the myriad possibilities for exploration and discovery and innovation. It is a crime, in my opinion, and we need to hold those responsible accountable and not allow our kids to be subjected to the cultural and intellectual deprivation that is being inflicted upon them in the name of diversity and "sensitivity".
