Can anyone locate this quote

Submitted by The Fire Inside on Sat, 02/04/2006 - 9:10am.

Can anyone locate this quote from an academically acceptable source?

Norman Zigrossi: "Indians are a conquered nation and the FBI is merely acting as a colonial police force."

"When you’re conquered, the people you’re conquered by dictate your future."

I can't seem to find it anywhere but independent media and internet message boards and am curious just when/to whom this was said.

Thanks.

I took a look also, no luck.

here is what I found. Norman Zigrossi, FBI deputy commander in Rapid City, South Dakota, spoke of native Americans in the following terms to David Weir and Lowell Bergmann of Rolling Stone magazine: They're a conquered nation. And when you are conquered, the people you are conquered by dictate your future. This is a basic philosophy of mine. If I'm part of a conquered nation, I've got to yield to authority...[The FBI] must function as a colonial police force.(56) quoted in Rolling Stone, April 7, 1977 and requoted in Quoted in Johansen/Maestas, p. 78.Wasi'chu: The continuing Indian wars.
