Quotes

"They told us that Indian ways were bad; they said we must get civilized. I remember that word. It means "be like the white man." I am willing to be like the white man, but I did not believe Indian ways were wrong.

But they kept teaching...the books told how bad the Indians had been to the white man. We all wore white man's clothes and ate white man's food and went to white man's churches and spoke white man's talk.

And so after a while we also began to say Indians were bad. We laughed at our own people and their blankets and cooking pots." -

Sun Elk, Taos Pueblo
