<u>Chief Joseph</u> was the one who said that quote when nez perce surrendered in 1877.
Chief joseph was mostly known for leading the fight against american government after the land of their ancestors was forcefully taken by them. Over the course of his effort, he realized that the fight took a lot of lives from the tribe members and causing a lot of misery from the loved ones and that quote really represented his feeling over this pain.
It is important to always have the politics because they help keep our community in tack and then it keeps us safe most of the time when we have no one else to depend on they also keep us together as a community and that be something worth it.
