So I have to cover a cool stuff blog from the first time when I got a little carried away with the cool.
If you're interested in the Native American story, you should check out the 2006 documentary, Trail of Tears. The movie documents the forced removal of Native American peoples from southeastern territory during the1830s.
The Native American's explanations and ideas concerning music were so beautiful and poetic thatI was curious to read about their spirituality and historical writings. I came across the Navajo creation myth which has one of the most beautiful explanations I've ever heard of.

The documentary you mentioned (Trail of Tears) is so powerful. It seems that we always think about what a travesty it is that some cultures, oceans away, have to suffer through such injustice and suffering. In actuality, this happened right in our own backyard. So many people overlook the pain that the Native Americans endured for that period.
