S.D. students hope to move statue they say is racist
Monday, February 2, 2004
Three students in Rapid City, South Dakota, have started a campaign against a statue they consider racist.
Michael Lieberman, 14, Yvonne Bear Stops, 17, and Matt Frank, 16, say the statue of a bound Indian warrior misrepresents Native people. They want the city council to move it away from a main interchange.
The statue was created by Glenna Goodacre, who created the image of Sacagawea and her son that was used on the dollar coin.
