Much wampum must go to Great White Fathers, so that Skybridge does not

This is called "Protection Wampum".

Many of our tribe bleed from this "Cut".

indigenous peoples of the southwest, as they learned to live on little
in a harsh environment.

"Making Indian Law Christian W. McMillen
The Hualapai Land Case and the Birth of Ethnohistory by Christian W.
McMillen.
In 1941, after decades of struggling to hold on to the remainder of
their aboriginal home, the Hualapai Indians finally took their case to
the Supreme Court-and won. The Hualapai case was the culminating event
in a legal and intellectual revolution that transformed Indian law and
ushered in a new way of writing Indian history that provided legal
grounds for native land claims. But Making Indian Law is about more
than a legal decision. It's the story of Hualapai activists, and
eventually sympathetic lawyers, who challenged both the Santa Fe
Railroad and the U.S. government to a courtroom showdown over the
meaning of Indian property rights-and the Indian past.
At the heart of the Hualapai campaign to save the reservation was
documenting the history of Hualapai land use. Making Indian Law
showcases the central role that the Hualapai and their lawyers played
in formulating new understandings of native people, their property,
and their past. To this day, the impact of the Hualapai decision is
felt wherever and whenever indigenous land claims are litigated
throughout the world. "
