I am part Native American, 4 different DNA and I am very sensitive about Native Americans. The white man took their land, took them prisoner and it wasn't right. Native Americans taught the white man how to survive and they weren't paid back very well. Custer was a jerk. He got his at his last stand. Native Americans have their own casinos and lives but out west, they are still treated unfairly. The Cherokee Trail is sad. All the roses that grew are tears from the Cherokees as they walked the journey because they were forced to leave to go to another land. I admire them and they are a part of me. I am English and German, too but I have a soft part for the NA side of me.
