Huffington Post: "Martin's Legacy: A Dying Native American Leads the Charge for Change" | |
An excerpt from a blog by Bridge the Gap to Pine Ridge's Chris Bashinelli
"What do you want people to remember about you?" I ask. He replies, "It ain't me I want you to remember. It's my people. We ain't all depressed, we ain't all oppressed, we ain't all alcoholics, we're just like you. We all want something out of life."
It's 2 a.m. The vertebrae sticking through Martin Bad Wound's right lung is causing him to cough blood into a once-white handkerchief with a frayed edge. He hasn't had his diabetes injection and his blood sugar is dangerously low. The pain is unbearable.
