"The Shame of
Public School Education" a photo essay
"Redskin-it is
the color of our skin. We grew up with this. We are proud to be a
part of this school and we are proud to be redskins."

DOES THIS COUNSELOR
TELL HER STUDENTS OF THE TRUE HISTORY OF THE ONES CALLED REDSKINS?
The dead at Wounded Knee South
Dakota, December 29th, 1890
They died because of their religious beliefs
Over 300 Indians were killed that day, 200 of them
children and women
This man's frozen body was turned on top of the others and the rifle
was laid across him by the photographers who sold postcards. A crowd
of whites came out to watch the shootings.
They were called redskins
and shot for it.
