Now he take our land.
:51:03
And why was that land taken?
:51:05
Because you can neither read nor write.
:51:08
Because you are not educated.
:51:11
These mountains, valleys,
and streams have passed from you.

:51:15
The people who take these mountains,
:51:18
these valleys,
:51:19
these streams... they steal, they lie.
:51:24
If you were all as smart as the white man,
:51:27
you would've known that there
was gold in the black hills

:51:29
and led your people to dig it out.
:51:31
You leave your affairs in
the hands of the white man.

:51:34
This is why you come to grief.
:51:36
The white man will walk right over you
:51:39
unless you get up
and stand in front of him as his equal.

:51:43
The way to do this is to get his education.
:51:48
You see that I do not come with soldiers
:51:50
to take your children from your very arms.
:51:54
I believe there are wise men among you
:51:58
who will themselves allow their
fortunate sons and daughters

:52:01
to partake in the white man's learning.
