Finally a topic I can relate too, White man here Canada, had assimilated, colonized aboriginal, first nations, indian people, introduced them during the fur trade to whiskey in exchange for furs, and introduced them to guns, as well the fall of the buffalo, so sad, a species here in Canada, almost extinct, unbelievable what we as a people did to a culture, their life, their being, and then the 50-60 scoop of their children and residential school....I could go on and on and on.....I am white and I am definitely not proud of what we did and still continue to do with indian, first nations people in Canada.
Shame on us.
ahhhh there r two sides to every story....and it is documented that the usa broke over 20 treaties w the cherokess....and then came the trail of tears and then they even had to pay to b removed...and their lands taken away........excuse me i meant to type over 30 treaties....i remember doing a research project on this .....and it is always history according to WHOM....frustrated
Of course. There is no need for revisionism as there are enough conflicting truths for everyone. :)
