And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Loti-kee-yah-tede. “The Chief’s Daughter.” Laguna Pueblo, New Mexico. 1905. by Carl E. Moon.
Doesn't matter. Thanks for all of these photos. They're a window into a past that almost nobody ever sees. The last time I saw anything like them was almost 50 years ago when my sister and I toured the west with my grandparents.
HMS, that's one reason I like posting them. Few today know the real indian in any sense, and these photos help dispel that. It also brings out the humanity of the native Americans, I think, and helps me remember them as they were, not as Hollywood portrays them.
Ok, but can she cook?
