Painting: Robert Lindneux

Few non-native North Americans know First Nations peoples' real story. They know nothing of the hundreds of broken treaties, the senseless massacres, or the deliberate spreading of smallpox that killed them by the thousands. Nor do they know what really happened at the Little Bighorn, Wounded Knee, the Trail of Tears, the Sand Creek Massacre, the Long Walk, or Crow Creek. "The Trail of Tears" painting by Robert Lindneux in the Woolaroc Museum, Bartlesville, OK.
