Joseph
[1988]
Lyrics & Music by Curtiss/Westerman
Album: Custer Died for Your Sins

The epic struggle of the Nez Perce Indians to retain their beloved homeland is a saga of dishonor in this nation's history. The Wallowa Band was expelled from its Wallowa Valley of Oregon in 1877, when General Howard and his cavalry pursued them 1,500 miles to their surrender. Captured just 30 miles short of safe refuge at the Canadian Border, Chief "Joseph"'s surrender speech stirs us over a century later:
"My heart is sick and sad. . . . From where the sun now stands, I shall fight no more forever".

“The earth was created by the assistance of the sun, and it should be left as it was… The country was made without lines of demarcation, and it is no man’s business to divide it… I see the whites all over the country gaining wealth, and see their desire to give us lands which are worthless… The earth...

Joseph, what do they want from you?

Wounded Knee

[1974]
Album: American Roots Music (disc 4) [2001]

Floyd "Red Crow" Westerman was a part of the popular protest that culminated at Wounded Knee in 1973. He says that there were so many others that were a part of it and that the protest wasn’t really aimed at making the country aware of Indian rights in general, but toward justice and responsibility for the Lakota at Pine Ridge, South Dakota.

“I don’t know if we (AIM) set any goals,” said Westerman, “we went there (to Wounded Knee) as a protest against the Chairman of the Pine Ridge reservation which was Dick Wilson.” Westerman isn’t reserve when expressing his opinion about the controversial leader of the day, “There has always been a gap between the traditionalists and the half-breed Christians, the traditionalists were always left out, why did the half-breed get all the money, they were selling off the land, you don’t sell the land!”...
