One feature of United States public memory is the way in which it tends to neglect the Native American perspective on mainstream American history, regardless of their involvement. This holds true even for the nineteen-sixties, a decade that is generally seen as multi-faceted.

Using Vine Deloria’s Custer Died for Your Sins: An Indian Manifesto (1969) and We Talk, You Listen (1970), this paper will explore Native American understandings of the Vietnam War and the African American freedom struggle.
