What's the history between the US military and American Indians?

What's the historical relationship between the US military and American Indians? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Winona LaDuke, author of The Militarization of Indian Country. She writes, "Native people have seen their way of life destroyed by the military." It began with colonization and continues with military testing on native lands and using words like Apache and Blackhawk to name military equipment. Join us at 10 or email feedback@yourcallradio.org. What will it take for this country to come to terms with past and its present? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar.

Guests:
Winona LaDuke, Native American activist, two-time vice presidential candidate with the Green Party's Ralph Nader, executive director of Honor the Earth, and author of The Militarization of Indian Country.
