Blackhawk Wars
The Blackhawk Wars are widely credited with stimulating the US policy of Indian removal (proposed and presided over by President Andrew Jackson), in which Native American tribes were forced to sell their lands for little to nothing, interned in disease infested stockades, and driven west of the Mississippi River; also known as The Trail of Tears.
FYI: Ma-ca-tai-me-she-kia-kiak, aka Black Hawk was a person, the chief of the Sauk tribe in what is now the American Midwest. There was, and has never been a “Black Hawk Tribe. While attending an Illinois graduate program I met countless people who claimed to be, “part Blackhawk.” The Chicago Blackhawks is also a hokey team in the region.
These are beaded portraits of Notable Americans who participated in atrocities against Native Americans during the "Blackhawk Wars" for all of whom participation in these atrocities benefited them personally as well as professionally and contributed to their subsequent recognition as "Notable Americans" in mainstream historical media.
The front panel of each pair of underpants features a stylized phallic symbol. Oddly enough when I googled, "patriotic phallis," this basic image showed up.
