109 S L Voyles RNThe theft of all that land which had been promised by treaties in perpetuity should not be glorified and memorialized.

121 DarlaI have always been against the Land Run, glad to see something is trying to be done about it.
122 AnonymousI am 1/4 Wichita and my children 1/8 and we are all on the tribal role. I am taking my third grader out of school on landrun day as it was an awful time in history for Native Americans. We are going to the Wichita Museum in Anadarko instead.

135 M. CHRISTINE CLARKAnything demeaning to a specific race or ethnicity should not be tolerated in our schools!
136 Lisa K. HillWe have not allowed our children to participate the land runs that take place at their school. We would be happy to see the entire practice of "celebrating" the land run done away with as there is nothing for us as Native Americans to celebrate.
137 Mary F Quoetone-HillThank you for your efforts in this matter. This is one of these events that we should have eliminated years ago. Good luck in getting this done.

139 T.J. HunterThe land run had a devastating impact on our tribal society to the extent that many stopped functioning or were destroyed altogether. The economic impact resulted in our people losing their economic independence to one of dependency on a government system designed for failure. These are the true facts of history that must be told in our public schools.
140 Jan SmithAll American History books need to be rewritten--schools should be a place where students come to unlearn misconceptions, misperceptions, discrimination

148 Richard D. CurtisI completely agree and have been trying locally to get the re-enactments stopped. Thank you for this opportunity to join together in an effort to stop the degredation.
