Friday was American Indian Heritage Day in Maryland, a new name for what just used to be just the day after Thanksgiving and a state holiday. There are more than 20,000 Native Americans living in Maryland, and there are eight indigenous tribes who form and operate communities. Still, these indigenous tribes don't have the economic and cultural benefits afforded to other Native American tribes that have obtained recognition.

It's about money surprise! How about a casino?
it's about the white man taking their land! We are all illegal aliens.
As a nomadic people, most Native Americans, had no concept of land ownership. That's why Manhatten was such a bargain, they got paid for something they did not even realize could be owned. Land and everything on it was a gift from the Great Spirit, a gift to everyone. We have taken everything from them that gave them their identity...language, culture, etc. It is great to see some still fighting to preserve the last remnants.
