REALITY?: Kit Carson

Posted on February 18, 2008 by Susan

Watching the PBS documentary on Kit Carson and getting a bad feeling.  And over halfway through the program I know I dislike him a lot.  His ridiculous running down of the Navajo Indians by burning their crops in Canyon de Chelly doesn’t end with their surrender.  This I cannot forgive: the final burning of 1000 of their prized peach trees as he brings the tribe to their knees.
