no no no.  You can't force art to be in English.  The govt has no business at all in art, regulating it, supporting it, promoting it or suppressing it.  Do we need a Separation of Art and State law?  It can buy it of course (buildings, art for inside the buildings, monuments, etc), but past that, the govt has no business in art.

Or what language we all speak, educate and trade in.  That's retarded.  Now, they should have a say in official govt documents and all of those should be in English (various states with large, non-English speaking minorities can make exceptions of course), if for no other reason than to save time and money.

Yes, some tribes have held on to their dying culture a little better than others.
