Mark Twain en spending many years abroad and reporting from there.

He was brilliant, hilarious and all American, even travelling abroad and reporting from there.

Nothing and no one in our culture is going to go unscathed in this horrible campaign to destroy our culture and heritage.

“..Darrel Cruz, head of the tribe’s cultural resource department, said the late author did not deserve to have a scenic cove...”

Geez... I miss the days when Americans would look people like this in the eye and respond with that time-honored American Response: “Hey! Go F*** Yourself!”

“Darrel Cruz”??? Gee... that doesn’t sound like a “Native” american name... his selective outrage is... interesting.

“...no one will remember that Mark Twain ever lived....”

That’s entirely up to you, me, and other Americans who DO still know how to say “Hey! Go F*** Yourself!” to these idiots.

It only happens if you LET it happen.

Teach your kids. Surround yourself with people that have your values, your heritage, your traditions, and keep passing them down. And jealously guard those precious things of OUR culture.

Nothing ends unless you let it end.

Twain was about as non racist as they come but he was brutally honest.

Twain was an authentic American genius and the author of the greatest American novel.

Judging from what I have read in contemporary accounts of the West including very unflattering descriptions of the Diggers as real primitives, I do not think these Indians would want a politically incorrect debate about the facts of the matter as they obtained in the 1860s when Sam Clemens encountered these people.

Your quite correct and what’s weird is that when cultural Marxists erase historical context, they have to fill the void that results with their own twisted version of history. This is very similar to what happened in the USSR when they erased the history of the Stalin era.

It works in the US because the cultural Marxists in the US have complete control of the K-12 Public Education system. I anticipate that the remnants of “our culture” will eschew the Public Education system and the result will be a Dual system or perhaps even, a multi-culture system. The Hispanics will have their version, the Asians will have their system, etc. Divide to conquer.

The “progressive, liberal, democommie’s” greatest wetdream is burning all the libraries and books and starting over with Marx, Lenin, and Stalin......

My heritage is Ani-Yun-Wiya, but I refer to myself as “American”, not “native American” or anything else...
IMO, REAL Americans do not refer to themselves as African American, Asian American, French American, Polish American, or any other double names...

We are AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no doubt in my mind that you are a real American, friend. I’m glad to hear it.

Merely stating that nothing ends unless we ourselves capitulate.

And that is not an option. Ever.

Twain’s Huck Finn is a banned book because of the dreaded “N” word, so he’s easy pickings for Indians (feathered, not dotted)

Minorities refuse to look at things through the eyes of time. Such a thing now has been rendered unacceptable (not to me), but back then it was a “norm”, view it as such and STFU. Be happy for the progress that has been made since then.

He could be like 1/160 Indian. which means you would have more Indian blood if you bought a pouch of RedMan and chewed it.
