My parents have both spent a lot of time out west, and they brought up the idea of writing a paper about the Crazy Horse Monument. They didn't have any ideas about a thesis, but the chief who asked the sculptor to do it said "We have our heroes too." It was in reference to Mount Rushmore. So I thought maybe I could write a paper about Crazy Horse as a response to Mount Rushmore and why certain choices were made as a result. My dad knows the wife and children of the sculptor, and thinks he might be able to get me an interview with them, and maybe some of the sculptors papers.
If I have sources, I will post them soon!
