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.

Red Fish, Dakota Sioux, Photo by D.F. Barry, 1880s.
Why isn't the color of his hair dark black? and there appears to be a bit of a wave/curl to it. Not at all like the Sioux I met in the Dakotas in the mid-60s.
I read somewhere about that medal, but it was so long ago I forgot what it was present for.

ReplyDeleteHe's just having a bad hair day.
ReplyDeleteAre those bear claws on his necklace?
ReplyDeleteI realize that it's an insult, but he looks a lot like a Crow.
