I'd like to see is an American Indian history month where we tell blacks in this country that they are damn lucky they weren't Cherokee like my ancestors or Lakota or Apache. The U.S. committed genocide against the Indians and frankly I'd rather have had my folks be black and slaves and alive to tell about it.

Yeah, damn white men. Look what I found:

Starved Rock is an erosional remnant of St. Peter Sandstone that forms a high terrace in the Illinois Valley. the rock is an historic site of a successful siege against the Illini Indians, resulting in the starvation and demise of the entire tribe.

Ooops, the Illini were wiped out by other Indian tribes. And I thought they were all peaceful people living as one with nature.
