Native American Graveyard - a photo on Flickriver

            Birch Hill Cemetery, Fairbanks Alaska.

If you are an American, chances are either you or your ancestors were immigrants. And chances are you or your ancestors came here to escape persecution or to otherwise seek opportunities and a better life.

Despite the injustices committed by our founding immigrants on the indigenous populations, Native Americans display a remarkable patriotism and love of God and country. At the same time our country has a history of both tolerance and intolerance toward immigrants. 

There is an irony and paradox here that defies explanation. 
To my fellow Americans, I wish you a reflective and happy Fourth of July.
