[QUOTE="Illinois88, post: 1326172, member: 2273"] Reasoning goes that the song is not authentic; it did not originate from an actual Native American chant. Since it was made up by two white dudes (the words of what I've read from one anti War Chant person), the chant being their idea of what a Native American war chant is, it pushes a stereotype upon the Native American culture and puts false pretense of that culture in the minds of the students.
