AB  - “It is time to change the dialogue about Indians,” says Elizabeth Cook Lynn in an interview. The writer, poet, scholar, educator andjournal editor, Lynn, continues: “We are not just warriors, we are notjust victims of massacre, we are not just drunks in the street, we are notjust Americans, we are Indian Americans, Native Americans” (Lynn2013). She states that there are many stereotypes about Indians, butthat these should change because Indians have made great progress,and accomplished a great deal, over the centuries. There are NativeAmerican scholars, writers, lawyers and doctors. Specifically, Lynnmentions Charles Eastman who was a physician and the only doctorat Wounded Knee. She also notes Black Elk, a man of philosophy andreligion; the painter Oscar Howe, whose works hang in embassies allover the world; and Vine Deloria, Jr., who has written over thirty bookson Native American Studies, law, politics, and history.
