[@BCooperArtMind]

I'm the son of a "Native American" (Choctaw), and father to Native Amazonian children (Shuar/Kichwa). it's wonderful to see BN, especially lovely, Rania, giving some time to indigenous peoples. They get so little of it. I leave the US (I only live in the States to take care of my elderly mom) for the Ecuadorian Amazon to visit my family in a couple weeks. Each time I return to the Amazon I see more and more destruction--a sharp decline towards the deep abyss of "Modern" (read: Imperial, conquerors) society. It breaks my heart to see my kids collapsing into this cognitive dissonance. As a side note, and this's not meant as a competition or to degrade, but I'd highly suggest that the indigenous peoples of Central and South America live in an abject poverty (and lowest life expectancy) more pronounced than here in the US. Yes, it's bad here, I get that, but when you live under a Third World country, you live in the Fourth World. You not only take on the Third World (the country you live under), but as well, the First (the US, in particular. See: Monroe Doctrine). Ecuador splits the Shuar and Achuar with Peru. Ecuador lost almost half its territory to Peru in the early 1940's. My Shuar father-in-law fought in one of the minor military skirmishes between Ecuador and Peru since the split, and was wounded in the leg. He said when he was fighting he encountered Shuar fighting for Peru. This's what indigenous peoples deal within the Third World in the Americas, SOUTH of the border. I doubt the veracity by Tilsen to his claims of lowest life expectancy and abject poverty in the "Western" hemisphere (in the Northern hemishere, for sure). I've seen both, and the "Native South Americans" exceed his claim, unfortunately. Free Peltier!

[@bertanelson8062]

Yes, colonial imperialism continues its painful journey throughout South America, Africa, and of course, circles around to those people who seem to benefit. Not the elites, necessarily, though they also damage themselves, but the ignorant "beneficiaries" who give no thought, are taught racism & who, themselves are left in the dust when no longer needed.

Never seen her here. President Trump came. We missed the opportunity to have his ear. Instead, Nick Tilsen and his crew rented the vans we used to get at a great rate, went to Mt Rushmore, destroyed the vans, used them to block the road in order to ruin the event for everyone. If that wasn't enough, he roughed up a Pennington County Deputy. Tilsen weighs 350. SHE weighed 120. Real heroes here.Now, we can't rent from the agency any vans to haul people from Rapid City to see relatives on the Rez. Bring folks to town for treatment. Etc. I warned the charity I was involved with to steer clear. We were doing just fine with small donors. But they had to get some Soros cash. Now, it's all in ruins. Just like Wounded Knee Village.

The land, and therefore the resources that allow for human survival, was stolen through trickery, betrayal, mass murder, and heinous atrocities towards many, many First Nations peoples. And these betrayals continue today, as shown by this report on Peltier. Native Americans aren't Asians. Just because they share a portion of DNA with modern Asians does not make them Asians. Also saying "red skin" is derogatory and also inaccurate. Native Americans have varying skin tones. My ancestor had more olive-colored skin tone. Please educate yourself.

Same process of dispose of natives happened also in Argentina with force. The last big one occurred 1860-1880 when military forces massacred - expelled Tehuelche Nation from their ancentral lands (known as Pampa Humeda or Wet Plains). Nowadays one of the fifth largest, fertile agricultural soils on the world, owned enterily for 800 rich families, who harvest annually thousands of tons of food staples, destined almost exclusively for exports, making food scarce with highs prices for ordinary argentinians, the remaining few surviving natives, mestizos, and poor people of europeans descends.

I learned about Leonard's case like a lot of teens and young adults in the 90s did. Through the music video for the Rage Against The Machine song Freedom. I highly recommend the KZbin page Our Hidden History for great historical AIM content. Great video of a radio broadcast called FBI Takes AIM from 1978 on that channel among other great content. I have zero affiliation with the channel it's just got a treasure trove of great political and social content on there imo.

Unfortunate that he was unable or unwilling to answer that very important genocide question posed by the woman @8:55 Pinpointing genocide, which is very true and real against the American Indigenous Population, should be effective to attach their plight with global complaints against the US and their Colonialism.
