I am looking for pictures of cowboys and native Americans. I'd like to make an oil & water routine with these picture cards. Does anyone knows a website with pictures of these people?

Look for the works of Remington (here is one link)
http://www.artunframed.com/remington1.htm You can also look at the artwork on the covers of the Louis L'Amore books. There is a calander with this artwork here: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksea......&z=y |

Ahem! Let's not be sexist. That should be "Cowpersons" and Native Americans.

I've mentioned this elsewhere, so I'll give it a shot here as well.
Oil and water performed for kids using cards from the game Go Fish. Environmental theme. Water and Oil spills. all too common a threat these days. More relevant than pick a card and I will proceed to find it. Kotah |

When using the net to find images, simply use the google search, and select image form the options at the lines just above your search line. Easily overlooked by folks just surfing.

If you're going to perform this for women get the pictures from romance novel covers

Trapeze above the Grand Canyon. Be impressed.

Interesting idea that came to me using cowPERSONS and NATIVE AMERICANS was how about using this as a football presentaion(i.e. Cowboys and Redskins)

A website with a lot of photos is nativeamericans.com.
Probably the best site for any kind of photos is corbis. This is a stock photography company that apparently has over 100 million photos on its web site and a good search engine. Some the photos have a watermark that can only be removed by purchasing the photo but it is a good resource. John B. |

I believe the preferred nomenclature is "American Indian."
At least, that's what my friends in the Spokane tribe tend to prefer. They say they hate the term "Native American" because it is a phrase that whites invented to allay guilt. Sherman Alexie (The American Indian Poet) says "We earned the word Indian, don't think you can take that away from us too!" Quote: On 2007-10-07 03:56, ROBERT BLAKE wrote:

The Indians I know don't mind 'Indian', most prefer that you use their tribal name.. Navaho, Dakota etc.., but they don't take offense at Indian. Cowboys and cowgirls prefer the gender specific cowboy or cowgirl. But after they see your rope spinning Robert, they'd let you call 'em whatever you want because they'd be clapping and wouldn't hear anyway.

Labels are stupid anyway. We should all be offended by them. You can't sum a unique person up with any one term.
"That's just a tree, that's just a rock, that's just a white guy." It's ridiculous to think that it's so easy to define someone.
