April 20th. 2012

Cornplanter said. "I see two types of governments. One like that of the USA tells the people what to do and only at the threat of rebellion gives the people anything they need. The other like the traditional government of our people listens to the people and responds. One plays on fear to keep the people in line. the other is loved by the people. Your job as you come of age is to hang onto the one and try and change the other." As he spoke to a bunch of thirteen year olds including me.
