“If the Texans had kept out of my country, there might have been peace. But that which you now say we must live on is too small. The Texans have taken away the places where the grass grew the thickest and the timber was the best. Had we kept that, we might have done the things you ask. But it is too late. The white man has the country which we loved, and we only wish to wander on the prairie until we die.” NativeGenocideUs HistoryAboriginalNative AmericansFirst NationsU S HistoryNativesAboriginalsFirst People Author:Ten Bears Comanche Nation
