Sequoyah, a severely disabled Cherokee who could not read or write created the first written Indian language.
The responsibility of the United States towards Native People.
Johnny Cash concept records, the struggles behind them that includes being threatened by Sam Phillips from Sun records.
Marlon Brando stands up for Native People and how he helped Dennis Banks when he was arrested at the showdown at Wounded Knee which was on Indian land!
The Indigenous Languages becoming extinct but there is a movement to help preserve them. How schools at one time rewarded those who did not speak their own language.
