- Summary
- Russell Means was likely the most controversial Indian leader of our time. Where White Men Fear to Tread is the well-detailed, first-hand story of his life, in which he did everything possible to dramatize and justify the Native American aim of self-determination, such as storming Mount Rushmore, seizing Plymouth Rock, running for President in 1988, and -- most notoriously -- leading a 71-day takeover of Wounded Knee, South Dakota, in 1973.
