I'm a big fan of Cochise !!! J'aime cette citation de lui :
« Ce sont toujours les faibles qui perdent. Longtemps nous avons été les plus forts. Maintenant, nous sommes les plus faibles. Nous serons battus et nous mourons, lentement si l'on réussit à nous enfermer dans des réserves, rapidement si l'on nous anéantit au cours d'une bataille. Puis ce sera votre tour. Après en avoir fini avec nous, vous vous tournerez vers d'autres peuples. Je suis certain que vous ne cesserez jamais de vous battre contres ces peuples qui sont sur des terres lointaines, de l'autre côté des océans et qui parlent des langues incompréhensibles. Serez-vous plus forts qu'eux? Vous écraseront-ils? Peu importe. Je ne sais qu'une chose : vous vous battrez sans répit. Partout où il y a des êtres vivants, la guerre est permanente. Nous autres Indiens, nous approchons de notre fin. La vôtre viendra aussi. Un homme fort rencontre toujours un homme plus fort que lui. »

For sure, it's a shame what happened in the past. I am glad we moved beyond the simple-minded European mentality and superiority complex that started this. Too bad it was impossible to live in peace. It's truly a shame the NATIVE AMERICANS were treated in such a way.
Of course, the Holiday is now about spending time with family (for those who have someone to spend it with

) and being Thankful for what we have. We do not focus on the negative, or use it as a reason to be ugly. We all know the mistakes of our past civilizations.
@liabatyd, I love the video! Of course, as a vegetarian, I do not eat Turkey, so these are my kind of birds! Thank you for the well wishes!

Sure, it's true! Any nation that is/once was a power has made a fair share of mistakes.
