Another lesser known black massacre was Wilmington. Here’s a great American Experience about it

Have read it and can confirm that it ought to be taught in primary schools. That along with 1491 1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus.

I’m an akleptic lover of music. I find most video game music lacking. In my 30 years of gaming, I usually turn off the in game music, leave the sound effects on, and use that opportunity to explore new music. That’s just me though. To each their own .

Understood.

I’m simply trying to highlight that what happened to the native Americans is not simply “an aside,” or a footnote in history but that it should take a sharp focus to what the US is or has been. This isn’t about competing special interest group atrocities, but a fundamental question that is at the core of representative democracy. Too often liberal democracy is simply another way to exploit others, and disallow “other” groups from participating.

From a native perspective, living on a reservation in the US currently, it wouldn’t matter much if it was run by republicans or democrats, as they both simply ignore treaties and obligations. From your perspective, it’s a dire existential crises, but to those who have been swept aside both in the past and the present, it doesn’t matter much at all.

I don’t know how you can separate the idea of colonialism from the formation of the US. Seems arbitrary and without any philosophical basis.

As it stands currently, black Americans have better standards of living, in almost all developmental indices, than native Americans. So by any scientific inquiry, native Americans have had it and still have it much harder than black Americans.

Not to be contrarian, but the original sin of the US is the genocide of the indigenous populations.

And it’s THE thing that few people want to confront.
