The "Indian Problem"

As American power and population grew in the 19th century, the United States gradually rejected the main principle of treaty-making-that tribes were self-governing nations-and initiated policies that undermined tribal sovereignty. For Indian nations, these policies resulted in broken treaties, vast land loss, removal and relocation, population decline, and cultural decimation.
The "Indian Problem" was produced to serve as the central video in the exhibition "Nation to Nation: Treaties Between the United States and American Indian Nations," on view at the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, DC. This video introduces visitors to the section of the exhibition titled "Bad Acts, Bad Paper."

So you're saying they drank alcohol or fire water? Who forced them to drink? I hear a lot of blaming and in my opinion everyone must point the finger at themselves in order to grow and become better. You can't blame other humans for how your life is now. Anyone from any race can come to America and do anything they want in this life. The people screaming the loudest are the most idiotic people I've ever heard. They drink and do drugs and blame white people for how shitty their life is. Their parents taught them that they were held down by white people. But how did some black people become great men and women and become very rich and others didn't? Oh thats right it all comes down to choices and some people including white people make the wrong choices and they get what they get. ONLY YOU CAN MAKE YOURSELF BETTER! I'M SICK OF THIS VICTIM MENTALITY.

Apparently Canada Toole is learning stupid political tactics from trump and thought he can win the future election just like trump by keeping to tell lies without doing anything for canadians or americans. Also by just shifting all blames to China or demonizing China with fake news without knowing so many positive outstanding progress made by China during past 30 years. I guess with his manner and attitude by learning from Trump, Toole would just make Canada worse and worse instead of great again if elected in coming election . Look at now China has completely resumed normal even with GDP positive growth while americans and canadians including trump and Toole themselves both got infected with Covid and death tolls is still going up in both USA and Canada and even sadly with GDP negative growth even after all the unreasonable unilateral tariff imposed to China and other countries. Nver try to learn from stupid trump unless Toole wants to repeat trump's failure for the past 4 years and remove office by majority of voters while he can not afford to lose by doing dirty things by demonizing Biden though most voters already choose to remove him because he himself, but not other countries is in actually danger of national security to USA by acting as President. Disgraceful History of North america tells you that Some 200 years ago during british colonial period , all native aboriginal people of North america were forcibly removed by european canadian and US govt from their homelands near east coastal area and great lake areas to very remote and poor inland area named as "indian territories" which are similar to concentration camp area to have all natives locked up inland area without freedom. If any indian native people resisted by wars against european government armies for their unwilling removal will be killed by brutal military force. These series of genocides of wars caused native population decreased drastically from more than 30 millions to now less than 30 millions still surviving in North america. Also There are five autonomous provinces for minorities people in China, however there are not a single autonomous state or province are allowed to set up for the native indians in USA and Canada. The treatment is Very unfair and against human rights for native people without legal permission building their own independent country recognized by UN who have settled in North america thousands years earlier than the europeans came through invasions around 2 to 3 hundreds years ago.

Are there any stories of the distant past that indicates that Pimas came from a distant land to the west of the Pacific Ocean?

To enable, by competent rewards, the employment of qualified and trusty persons to reside among them, as agents, would also contribute to the preservation of peace and good neighbourhood.

Communism,all the other isms are as bad,and even worse than most Westerners can know. But what happened in America is worse in one respect.

And no, I'm not anti- American. Major shock and disappointment when finding out. And outrage as well.

His enterprises extended not only over Pennsylvania, but to Ohio, Illinois and to the Mississippi river. Another colonial era Jew by the name of Levy Andrew Levy, a resident of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, "with two female slaves and one house," was Joseph Simon's business partner, and Simon's sons-in-law, Levi Phillips, along with Solomon M. Cohen, Michael Gratz, and Solomon Etting, were also associated with him at various periods. In partnership with William Henry, Simon supplied the Continental army with rifles, ammunition, drums, blankets, and provisions. The name Levy Andrew Levy appears on the receipt for a number of infected used blankets and handkerchiefs from the smallpox hospital that were given to the Indians by the British in 1763, leading to a deadly outbreak of smallpox that devastated members of the Indian tribe. wethoughttheywerewhite.tumblr.com/WhoAreTheJews Christopher Columbus's heritage. www.myjewishlearning.com/article/destination-the-new-world/ Who controls the government? www.bitchute.com/video/oP66euQDJJ94/

America's internal problems, most of which got it's start in the evils of genocide and slavery,are like stinging dinner bell today. By the way, Columbus got his obsession with gold and land from the writings of Marco Polo. This is also suppressed by schools here. But in Asia, it's well known that since the Roman Empire,the Europeans have wanted to find a SAFE way to invade the Silk Road region and take it over. Land was simply too dangerous to attempt. Truly,Native Americans will benefit from studying what happened with that ! Native Americans got caught between the Far East and Europe and this " Great Game" as it's still called. In the 90's once, Chinese officials told some European envoys that what Marco Polo and Columbus was trying to do was neither forgiven nor forgotten. And that payback was coming,one day. Most Americans have never heard about this incident. It concerns some Europeans visiting the Marco Polo Bridge there in China. They were kind of surprised to see that, and yes,it was REAL.

Even with their muskets and metal armor archaeologists found evidence of such weapons and armor being useless in a close quarters fight. Secondly look at the Comanche war in the states where the US Army couldnt even fight them so they had to take away food supply killing thousands of bison and still couldnt beat them.

Joseph Simon, a Jewish colonist, was one of the most prominent Indian traders and merchants and one of the largest landholders in America during the last quarter of the 18th century. His enterprises extended not only over Pennsylvania, but to Ohio, Illinois and to the Mississippi river. Another colonial era Jew by the name of Levy Andrew Levy, a resident of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, "with two female slaves and one house," was Joseph Simon's business partner, and Simon's sons-in-law, Levi Phillips, along with Solomon M. Cohen, Michael Gratz, and Solomon Etting, were also associated with him at various periods. In partnership with William Henry, Simon supplied the Continental army with rifles, ammunition, drums, blankets, and provisions. The name Levy Andrew Levy appears on the receipt for a number of infected used blankets and handkerchiefs from the smallpox hospital that were given to the Indians by the British in 1763, leading to a deadly outbreak of smallpox that devastated members of the Indian tribe. wethoughttheywerewhite.tumblr.com/WhoAreTheJews Christopher Columbus's heritage. www.myjewishlearning.com/article/destination-the-new-world/ Who controls the government? www.bitchute.com/video/oP66euQDJJ94/

"Assimilation" is used like it is a dirty word, but it really means abandoning the tradition of banding together as a tribe against other tribes.
