MSG Stan Hutchison As Horrendous as it was! Perspective Gives Me Joy, I Have 3 Grandchildren with Native American Heritage and They are Also Dawes! "Dawes Roll" First Native American Census, What is Used by the "Gov't" to Decide Who is and Who isn't "Native". A Man of Scottish Heritage got to Decide who and what it means to be "Native American" is BS! My Grandchildren get to Mock and Laugh at their European Heritage!
