3✨This was an interesting and quick read about a family and their farm. This part of American history is hard because Native born people had their lands taken from them. Yet, they are portrayed as the bad guys and when our young MC‘s mother is struck from behind a young boy defends his family with a gun his father had never even fired. #Roll100 @PuddleJumper
