U.S. soldiers bury Native American corpses in a mass grave following the infamous massacre at Wounded Knee, South Dakota, in 1891 when some 300 Lakota Native Americans were killed.
This title page from an 1858 history of the United States depicts a native woman kneeling at
Christopher Columbus’ feet like a savior. In reality, he
enslaved, raped, and killed countless Indigenous people.
Before Columbus, between 60,000 and 8 million native people lived in the Bahamas. By the 1600s when the British colonized the islands, that number had dwindled in some places to nothing. On Hispaniola, the entire Native population had been eliminated, with
no accounting for how many Native Americans were killed.
The Native American genocide only gathered steam as more settlers hungry for land arrived in the New World. In addition to coveting native lands, these newcomers saw the Native Americans as
dark, savage, and dangerous — so they
easily rationalized violence against them.
And I personally lived through this in Arizona.
In March 1819, Congress passed the Indian Civilization Act, which placed native children into boarding schools in order to "civilize" and Christianize them.

So I don't want to hear a ******* thing about one fat indian girl blaming her weight on white people.
