Some interesting information here but I don’t understand why the Crazy Horse monument is on this list. The author believes that carving the mountain was a bad idea and quotes Russell Means as evidence that all native Americans feel this way. I don’t believe that is correct. Either way, the monument doesn’t mean the opposite of what people think it does because everyone knows that it was created to counter Mount Rushmore and give Indians a source of pride.

Might be more appropriate as Europeans misunderstanding Indian culture and religion.

I think his only point is the irony of having big head of Crazy Horse when Crazy Horse himself didn’t want to have his picture taken. So, was he like Mohammad, then?
