Native Americans Angry Over Trump Visit to Mount Rushmore

Cecily Hilleary

   Native Americans are expressing outrage over President Donald Trump's
   planned fireworks display Friday at Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, a
   monument on land they say was stolen from them more than a century ago.

   They also question the timing of the event, scheduled during a period
   in which Americans struggle to come to terms with racism and police
   violence, and underfunded tribes battle the spread of COVID-19.
