Original Homegrowns: This is Our Country

There's no excuse for Ann Coulter's statement that "we didn't kill enough Indians." As Lakota Law director Chase Iron Eyes points out, America was built on treaties with — and the generosity and genocide of — Native people. Stoking the fires of violence will only harm us further. When those who display no regard for human lives, rights, and dignity control the levers of power, it’s important that we come together in common cause to raise our collective consciousness and make our homelands a better place.
