Coyote Breath, it is too true that there is still so much racism in Wyoming and in South Dakota, esp. around the reservations, but there are people who work to change that through education. (I was assuming you meant you'd traveled through Wyoming to the battlefield in MT.)

In my research when writing articles on just such issues, I've run across, or heard first-hand, accounts of unspeakable prejudice and crimes against many minority people. In fact, I just read some in a discussion group, today.

I am grateful I was not raised with such prejudice and it has stood me in good stead over the years with many friends/family from diverse cultures, but mostly among Native Americans.

THEO, hang in there! Somehow, we will find those lyrics for you!!

gehele beste,
