Except for the helicopters... Most would probably even miss... the entire genre of westerns.... Hollywood lived off that for a generation... The irony in the example, though, is that for the most part the Native American legacy... is exactly that which most distinguishes us from the legacy in the mostly European cultural heritage. And, that is more true in the U.S. than it is in Canada or the rest of the Americas... where Spanish, French and English colonial domination of the local cultures has far more thoroughly evicerated its cultural influences... which is not an apology for American policy vis a vis native populations... rather than pointing out its lesser utility in obtaining the desired end in "pacification"... See, for instance, this coverage in memorium of my friend Russell Means: "Means admired and advocated the untamability of the truly independent, something that states with their desire to pin down and number and control and tax never much cared for." I met Russell in 1982, in Rapid City, South Dakota... when he and... anyway... neither of us could have had any reason to expect there would be any possible common or shared interest... He later became more active in Libertarian politics... which channeled his efforts in a new direction, but if no more successfully in obtaining justice... it did win him a respected place in a wider community... I hope they name a helicopter after him...
