p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · their fault...December 29, 1890


"There is nothing to conceal or apologize for in the
Wounded Knee Battle - beyond the killing of a wounded buck by a
hysterical recruit. The firing was begun by the Indians and continued
until they stopped - with the one exception noted above."

"That women and children were casualties was unfortunate but
unavoidable, and most must have been [killed] from Indian bullets...
The Indians at Wounded Knee brought their own destruction as
surely as any people ever did. Their attack on the troops was as
treacherous as any in the history of Indian warfare, and that they
were under a strange religious hallucination is only an explanation
not an excuse."

...excerpts from an official investigation of Wounded Knee initiated
at the behest of Congress, written by General E. D. Scott.

Wow - I really like the forms and colors!

I don't see the Wounded Knee connection however.

I do not find a connection to your art and Wounded Knee. You are taking the word of one man, a white soldier in a time when Indians were hated and thought of as less then human; I find your adding this Quote very offensive.

I do however enjoy your creative work, the feel draws the viewer deep into the depth of each creation. It is very well done

Appreciate your advice but I am afraid you have missed the point.

You're telling somebody that they're "wrong" when they have given their opinion

It wasn't "advice" as you put it.

Reminds me of a joke by the comedian Gallagher...

And, yes, I am Tsalagi, aka Cherokee.
