Native Americans!

 A long (strung out through all the ads, sorry) article:

  1. Hello ,
    It is sad that the Native Americans feel they need to prove anything. The long house is amazing. Take care, have a great weekend.

    1. You may be referring to the Mohawks who helped as steel workers building skyscrapers in New York. They are the only ones I've heard referred to as having that ability.
