Encroachment on sacred land area of nature by people for U.S. military testing, and fencing off lands keeping Indian people from sacred areas. Indian cowboy is the symbol of Indian resistance. Lace is symbolic of the feminine relating to mother earth, beauty and delicacy. Nature people, indigenous people are knowledgable of the care of mother earth.
