Excerpt from Report of the Executive Council on the Proceedings of the First Annual Conference of the Society of American Indians: Washington, D. C., 1912

The common ground which every tribe had in Tecumseh's time was the oppression Of the red race by the various divisions Of the white race that had invaded America. Much Of this Oppression was due to pure love Of conquest and the consequent destruction Of a people possessing inadequate means Of defense. Much of it also was due to the natural misunderstanding that exists between races Of radically difierent environments and dif ferent stages Of ethnic culture. It was also due largely to the conception on the part Of the white race that it had inherently superior rights and was morally justified in. Oppressing and exterminating the original occupant Of America. Some Of these ideas unfortunately exist today.
