Treatment of indigenous peoples is an embarrassing thing to free thinking humans

We've pretty much gone back on every promise since the beginning of this country. The Original Americans continue to be lied to, disregarded, and screwed over. America has been a country of the rich white males, by the rich white males, and for the rich white males since the first boat landed. My ancestors should have put up a wall.

embarrassed and ashamed.it is still happening

The American Indians way of life was bound to come to an end eventually. I’m certainly not proud of the fact that we repeatedly broke treaties while we were doing away with their way of life but I definitely don’t think we should be paying them today for something that happened long ago.

While I don't really have a proverbial dog in this fight, it still ticks me off. If we as individuals are held to the standards of honoring our promises and debts, what does it say about us when we ignore them while we're in a group?

Ashamed.

Much the way I feel about every war they have fomented or used for their monetary gain...what goes around comes around.

About the same way i feel about drumpy and DACA....sad & mad!

it's fucking disgraceful. where is there American dream? and like many countries with horrible pasts its all accidentally left out of the history books etc.

Depressed and aggravated, yet again, for my nation's arrogance and selfishness.

Just the European diseases wiped out millions.
The Native American tribes waged constant war on each other, but it was for horses, status, hunting ground access, to acquire children to adopt to replace ones that were killed, etc.

The Native Americans were unable to grasp the concept of genocide, ownership of land, that someone would promote the destruction of trees, wildlife, pollution of rivers, etc., so made treaties with white men to acquire guns, metal weapons and tools, and, they thought, help with subduing their enemies.

The US government killed many of my distant relatives outright in the Trail of Tears, treaty violations, etc, since I have Native American on both sides of my family, three and six generations back.

I still look Cherokee enough to be regularly invited to pow-wows.

People all over the world have been conquered through out history. I don't see how what you are promoting helps

Totally, disgusted...I have felt that way for years! And, I feel the same way about DACA!

Add Puerto Rico to the list of abused souls.
