Being an Indian means living with the land. And the only way we'll be able to do that is to gain our freedom.

The United States is a fake country.

America always put forth this phony melting pot theory, but it's a reality now. They couldn't accomplish the melting pot economically; they couldn't accomplish it politically, or through education and science.
