In 2002, John Herrington became the first Native American to do what?

Marco the good boy, when they were taken from their families, from the reservations, and educated by whites. They were forced to speak English and not use their native language. Their names wre changed to Anglo... not by choice.

First I'm hearing of this. Too bad. Seems this should have been more widespread.

Marco the good boy, this isn't the 1800's.
