Before one ever takes anything Russell Means says seriously, one ought to read what his own co-founded movement has said about his more recent activities.

Like Jesse Jackson, I'm sure Means "means" well, but in effect a lot of his bluster is really all about him. At a time when people ought to be continuing to learn how to live with one another, to learn from one another, Means is nothing more than another racist . . . only from the other side of the fence.
