I believe as many children should be taught in their mother tongue for as long as possible, and at least until they are proficient in a second language, but forcing students to learn what they donât want to do is the same as what sparked the Soweto riots in 1976.
The REAL âLone Rangerâ Was An African American Lawman Who Lived With Native American Indians. The real âLone Ranger,â it turns out, was an African American man named Bass Reeves, who the legend was based upon. Perhaps not surprisingly, many aspects of his life were written out of the story, including his ethnicity.
Clayton Moore was the actor who played the Lone Ranger, except for a short time from 1952 to 1954 when the actor John Hart played the role. But there was only one Tonto-Jay Silverheels-who played the poker-faced, mixed blood Mohawk Indian to perfection! The series ended in 1957, but reruns continued thru 1961.
