Did you mean the actual book 'Trail of Tears'?

I always felt for the Native Americans, they were humble people living in harmony with nature. But then came the 'White Man' with his lust for exploitation.

Yes all we ever want is peace and harmony with nature (well said) but we have always been the ones to threaten big industry, and so they dont want our opinions. We live very simple..we dont need skyscrapers, and millions of dollars to be happy. But big business doesnt support simple life...they are all about money!

I am a Priestess and have lived on reservation, and that was the best life I ever experienced. I hope someday to get back to that life. Its simplicity is its beauty!

Yes, by Gloria Jahoda. I very sad time in this countries history. The whites betrayed the Native Americans. Thousands died making that forced march. It was very similar to the Bataan death march.

But just like anything..

you cannot blame all the white men for what happened in the past. THey did not understand our customs.
The Native Americans were doing non-stop dances for prosperity from the Great Spirit. The white man did not understand and saw our actions as a threat. So they disarmed all of us. Even disarmed we continued to dance for prosperity from the Great Spirit non-stop. Since the white man could not understand this he still perceived it as a threat, and the troops opened fire on everyone. Woman, children, all were killed. Its a shameful part of history.

But we as Native Americans must be strong and work past our grievances, and focus on the future. Its the only thing that will ensure that we stay a peaceful people.

Understood, but I still think whites could have tried harder to understand, to coexist. They may have even learned good things from them. Instead they tried to cram their beliefs of religion, dress and general ways of ways of life down their throats. When they refused, they were seen as heathens, barbarians and uneducated. No, we can't go back, no, we can't blame it on the whites of that time, but it shouldn't have happened like it did.

"Indians"

We all see black and white
When it comes to someone else's fight
No one ever gets involved
Apathy can never solve

[BRIDGE:]
FORCED OUT - Brave and mighty
STOLEN LAND - They can't fight it
HOLD ON - To pride and tradition
Even though they know how much their lives are really missin'
WE'RE DISSIN' THEM ...

[PRE-CHORUS:]
On reservation
A hopeless situation

Respect is something that you earn
Our Indian brother's getting burned
Original American
Turned into, second class citizen

[REPEAT BRIDGE]
[REPEAT PRE-CHORUS]

[CHORUS:]
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, Cry, Cry for the Indians

Love the land and fellow man
Peace is what we strive to have
Some folks have none of this
Hatred and prejudice

[REPEAT BRIDGE]
[REPEAT PRE-CHORUS]
[REPEAT CHORUS]

[MOSH PART]
[WARDANCE]
TERRITORY, It's just the body of the nation
The people that inhabit it make its configuration
PREJUDICE, Something we all can do without
Cause a flag of many colors is what this land's all about

[LEAD BREAK]

[REPEAT FIRST VERSE]
[REPEAT BRIDGE]
[REPEAT PRE-CHORUS]
[REPEAT CHORUS]


... 30 years go, Anthrax wrote this song here. The lyrics speak for themselves. JMO

I see hunting as a way of survival only. I see no sport in it.

Yes, I fish, but everything is released.. Once you've killed an animal, its life is done.
