AMERICAN SCHOOLS For more than a hundred winters our nation was a powerful, happy, and united people. Our children were never known to cry of hunger, and no stranger — red or white — was permitted to enter our lodges without finding food and rest. Our nation was respected by all who came in contact with it, for we had the ability as well as the courage to defend and maintain our rights of territory, person, and property against the world. Then, indeed, was it an honor to be called a Sauk, for that name was a passport to our people traveling in other territories and among other nations. Thus spoke Black Hawk, chief of the Sauks, before the war council on the Iowa River in 1832. That which was true of Black Hawk’s own Indian nation can be spoken of another great nation — the United States of America — within whose boundaries live a powerful, happy, and united people — whose children live in a land of plenty — and who opens the golden door for those yearning to breathe free.” The people of this nation have the courage, and the ability to defend and maintain their rights against the evil forces which may arise. It is, indeed, an honor to be called an American — one of a great nation respected throughout the world. So to this early American, Black Hawk, in whose mind took form so long ago these ideals of democracy which shall live as a burning torch for the future world, we dedicate this 1945 Blackhawk Annual.
