The quote of Dr. David "Bad Eagle" Yeagley-

"The Smithsonian just opened the new Museum of the American Indian. I utterly dispute the title.

It is the museum of indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere, or the Americas. It is not an American Indian museum, but only in part.

Our established historical name, American Indian, is being again swindled from us, usurped by political correctness and racism. It is anti-white, anti-European racism to attempt to associate all peoples of the Americas as one group.

We are not. We are independent peoples, with different native languages, different religions, different cultures.

I completely protest the name of this museum, and its purpose.

Ernest Steven, president of the National Indian Gaming Association said yesterday (in Washington DC) one third of the money for the museum was donated by the Oneida Nation, the Mashantucket-Pequote (Negro club), and the Mohegan Sun casinos, alone. This was approximately $96 million.

Shall we talk about Indian health? Education? Heating bills?

I shall write more on my protest later."

OK, that's fine. You're welcome to protest.

But America encompasses more than just the USA. As I said, Canada and Mexico are both part of North America.

Good going, Dave.

The Comanche Professor knocks another one right out of the ballpark!
