Don't forget the indians were warring and enslaving amongst themselves. Sacajawea was a Shoshone who was captlured at an early age by the Hidatsa indians and made a slave. Was it also right for the indians to confiscate land from each other? There is enough blame to go around to all cultures.

She was also the junior wife of a French fur trader who'd adopted many "native" customs.
