WHITE ARROW


en Paperback – 10 feb 2019
This story covers a time period from 1850 through 1920, The most turbulent times in the history of the American West, that even today our government will not admit to the atrocities bestowed on the First American peoples.
All places and events are real, with the bracketed appendixes telling of the real event.

White Arrow, a half breed, through hate, education, and his vision, turned the animosities and prejudice ways by both, Indians and Whites, to understanding and respect.
"Returning from his first hunt at age eight, White Arrow was met with a sight that no one, child or adult, should ever have to witness. His camp had been attacked by over six hundred fifty-armed Colorado militia that had slaughtered one hundred sixty-three old men, women, and children 1]."

"White Arrow's father, Francis Godfey, had told how his mother had saved his life after being captured by the Cheyenne. He told how he and his twin sister had survived their birth by the grace of the great spirit and how his mother, White Flower, had a vision, and seen him become a great influence on all Indian nations."
At one of the chief's councils, Running Fox made it known that he had a brave who could speak English as well as read and write their language. White Arrow was given the bags containing letters from the four forts. After careful studying, he determined that an attack was imminent on the Little Big Horn camp 6]."
"Having had two wife's, one white, and one Cheyenne, a stepdaughter, Pricilla, and a full Cheyenne son, Broken Badger, and having seen greatness in both from his vision, he knew that education was the only way for the Indian Nations to survive."
"The president was waiting in an oval shaped room for them and introductions were made. White Arrow was surprised at his appearance as being the great White Father he had envisioned him in long white robes, tall and the demeanor of a Spirit"

"White Arrow talked to Broken Badger about his schooling saying, "No matter the outcome of his situation you should get the education you so desired, as not your father, mother or any white man had the right to deny you from becoming a doctor and thousands of lives could be saved by your decision."
"My name is Rose Brooks and your father and I, in the fall of 1861, bought a mining claim in the mining town of Golden Colorado. Francis was killed after we bought the claim because he was married to a Cheyenne Indian. We had kept it a secret from the other miners, but we had found an almost pure gold vein and had bought the claims on each side of ours. After your father was murdered, the mine became the most profitable mine in the entire area. I kept his name on the title with the hope that someday I could find his family. That day seems to be today. Your dad's share is in a bank in New York City. It will be transferred to you. "
"Broken Badger and Pricilla had vowed to avenge their father's death, but the marshals had done that."
By 1918, the Lame Deer Reservation School had become a symbol of teaching the Indian children in their own environment and several other reservations had started schools.
"Pricilla was giving one-dollar of every ticket to the Lame Deer School. Using both Indian and White medicines, Broken Badger had become a renowned doctor."
Through the efforts founded by White Arrow, are doctors, nurses, businessmen, teachers, politicians, NASA.
