Cherokee Speaks

At the rising sun they came, driving us from our homeland. Miles and miles our people limped. The weakened ones fell. For the "Miles" contest

A sad bit of American history that most Americans choose to forget - but, should not. We so often condem others for doing what we have done in our not too distant past. This is a nice, simple and compelling reminder of a wrong we should right. Nicely done. Joe
