I grew up in Oregon, and have driven through a reservation on the east side of the state ( not really sure exactly where, I myself descend from the Osage Indians, but don't have enough native blood to live on a reservation.)
but I was profoundly aware of how desolate the land was, and how rundown all the houses seemed. In the reservations you lived on was it similar? What do they teach you in school about the "white man" taking your land? I feel much guilt for what my ancestors have done, do you or your family still feel any ill will towards us?
