"This land ain't your land,
This land is our land,
You stole it from us,
We want it back."
I first heard Charlie Hill sing this on an appearance on the Johnny Carson Show. Hill wrote what I believe to be the best Thanksgiving Special ever written, certainly the most accurate. In this special Rosanne's children put on a school play in which the colonists invite their Native benefactors to dinner and then slaughter them in front of the mortified parents who were there to witness their children's stage debut. If you think this is far from the truth I urge you to visit:

There is a common misconception among mainstream America that Native People are with-out humor. Nothing could be further from the truth. And Charlie Hill is living proof.
