Russell Means, Oglala Sioux activist, speaks in response to Andy Rooney's column on how it is "silly" for Native Americans to complain about professional sports team names.
Means discusses the image of Native Americans, as opposed to Blacks in America. He combats the claim that Native Americans have no great culture and complicates the idea of Native American contribution. He discusses the effects of nuclear waste on Indian Reservations, or what he calls "concentration camps." He puts responsibility on the white citizens of America to see to it that the US government follows its own laws, and to curb the waste it produces.
For things to change, people must "Kill Columbus - kill his legacy."
