great sense of pride in my own virtue as well as my sympathy and compassion for the bold and courageous Native Americans, that the injun I had come to know over the course of my lifetime is no longer on the butter box. I just thought, "thank God we took that poor Indian off the butter box".
Those poor savages were lied to, abused and slaughtered by the horrible people running this horrible country and the best way to remedy that of course is to whitewash them from history, pretend they were never here and claim that we don't want to hurt their feelings. Of course it is our feelings that were hurt And projected upon the noble savages, since they are not smart enough to feel bad about what is being done to them.
I guess.
Then, to my chagrin I noticed another butter box in the fridge. It was from a different company and didn't have an Indian on it.
But it did have a cow.
And it occurred to me that shouldn't that courageous cow be removed from the butter box For its own sense of pride and self-esteem? We work hard to erase Indians from all aspects of our lives and culture, but cows, they are REAL victims of our aggression and tyranny are left to be mocked and ridiculed on a box of butter.
Has anyone talked to the cows about this?
