Winged Foot is told to salute
the flag, but he refuses. He is whipped for his refusal and
earns nickname "Do-Atin," or "The Whipped One,"
a shameful name that carries over into adulthood. |
|
"Why, if we hadn't needed
you on the track team, you wouldn't even be tolerated here!" |
|
"The White school has
had you ten years - I'll make you a Pueblo woman again in ten
minutes!" |
|
Chief Notani: "I asked
you to come back to me an Indian."
Winged Foot: "Why, Father,
these clothes mean nothing. My life with the White man has made
me proud of my race!"
|
|
"Do-Atin, you are no
longer my son! You are no longer a Navajo! Go!" |
|
"You should know. You
named me. Do-Atin, the Whipped One . . . And I'd like to speak
to you alone. You pinned a name to me that I've never been able
to live down! And, as for your education, what has it made me?
I am neither Indian nor White Man. Just . . . Redskin." |

A fight ensues. |
|
"We've register it,
boy!" Navajo Jim tells Winged Foot. "It's all yours,
an' you're rich!" |
|
"What message am I to
take to the Pueblos? Is it war?" one of the Pueblo men
who had followed Corn Blossom to Winged Foot asks. |
