Native here.
My grandmother attended one of those schools, passed away 10 years ago. She told me the stories which I will not repeat here.
Listen.
The French-Indian War was a prelude to the Revolutionary War. There were 140 million Natives, now there less than 700,000 Natives left. The puritans can say all they want in conquering the continent. Truth is, it was a extermination. Always has been. We were not recognized as Human Beings, forget the word "Citizen". All love to Nubian (Black) folks, but for 400 years we attempted to fight, fight & fight, and fight some more …. consider yourselves lucky you didnt suffer the same fate. Native America existed for 15,000 years & was nearly wiped away in a mere fraction of that time. We had our own deities, education, production & a way to save the Earth.
The boarding schools were a pieze to the puzzle.
The continent itself from Canada to Mexico was Native Territory, taken away.
Rituals stepped on.
Way of life trashed
Bodies dug up & thrown into rivers
Demoralized.
Assimilated into white man culture despite.
Women & children hanged for what?
Government is the one who established the reservations, not us. The Baker & Dawes rolls? Government.
Natives are the only ones who have a right to be Racist, and its out of Justice, not Hate… but chose not to be, but instead to be understanding & kind.
With this all said, I can speak for all Natives. We will not forgive or forget.
We need a real SHIELD, because there really was/is a HYDRA. Sounds like the same reeducation centers they had in Agents of SHIELD framework, season 4.
Not “indigenous boarding schools” but rather “white institutions to ruin indigenous children.” There. I fixed it for you.
If they weren't all doing it then they were covering it up
Sickening..those responsible for this should have been severely punished…and we talk about other cultures…yep…

87% of Aborginal (Mongol) males are in native gangs in Canada . . . they don't have any other culture than the violent gang culture today.
Don't be stupid . . . these children were being abused by their own parents, starving, denied education . . . far more were saved and civilized than were abused . . . TO BE CLEAR . . . anyone who abuses a child is a monster and should be dealt with to the maximum of the law, but the bullshiite about separating for assimilation is nonsense . . . these children were abandoned in every sense of the word by mongol (native/aboriginal) parents who often committed far worse abuses of their own children than any one else could . . . leave the past in the past . . . the bullshiite about mongol abuse is just another money grab by Native/Aboriginal leaders who are doing far more damage to their communities than any other race could ever do.
Poor people
The same thing in Australia, Indigenous children were forcibly taken away from their parents and put in Christian-run schools. Look up "The Stolen Generation". They made a movie about one case it's called "The Rabbit-Proof Fence".
This is white history not dark
make and use millions of law enforcement drones and robots to stop all criminals and illegal anything's quickly and easily. when will we all finally wake up to what needs to be done?
I'm Cherokee, Chenooke, Irish, Scottish, Russian, British, Norwegian, and scandanavian. and I wouldn't tolerate these messed up people. I have a lifetime of moments to prove it.
These wicked people use the Church and God to separate, rob, divide and rule. This was another form of slavery. 😡😡😡😡😡
These things need to be heard. The Catholic Church came first then next the military
They took our land, our religion and our lives….what more do you want 💔
But this history can no longer be taught in our schools. This is critical race theory/fact
Maybe you should interview other native Americans what they went through instead of just focusing on your grandfather and what he went through

Not just Boarding Schools. The Government also is stealing our children from us and the Courts are allowing it to happen.
Just wrong
