You can't put a price tag on what Native people endured. Three hundred and fifty million is not a good amount. There is no price tag, because right now the cycle still continues. Native people have the hightest rate of suicide and there is a lot of addictions among our people. And one of the saddest things is the governement just can't get away with putting a price tag on that. I believe Creator has a way of making people pay. And one of these days this race is going to pay for what they did to ours."
