    NEW!! Geographic Features with the term "Squ*w"

    Sally Wagner " At that time, I experienced all the racism and outright bigotry toward Indian people that I would not wish on anybody....Even in the early 70's, being Indian was not at all popular. My brothers and I were the only Indians in the junior high school we attended. Never do I want to hear the words "squaw and buck" vented so hatefully again in my life. My brother's were in countless fights during and after school hours. I hope that my children will never have to endure this kind of humiliation ever. I fully support your efforts in exposing L.Frank Baum for what he was and his stance on the termination of our relatives."....
