What I learned from this video:
100 million Native Americans died at the hands of white colonists
Instead of planting crops the colonists spent their days digging random holes in the ground looking for gold. They started starving and dug up Indian corpses to eat. They took Indian prisoners and forced them to teach the colonists how to farm
Native Americans had massive cities with tens of thousands of well constructed houses, intricate water canals and large merchant areas.
The Native Americans used soaps, deodorants and breath sweeteners while colonists never bathed or even took of their clothes
There was a delousing policy with the mantra Nits create Lice; nits being Native American babies, so their goal was to kill every Indian, including babiesÂ
In the 1700âs 80% of the Federal Budget went towards eradicating the Native American population so they could take their developed farmland
Colonists leaders went town after town killing men women and children under the approval of George Washington
âPursue Indians to exterminationâ -Thomas Jefferson
California governor (1849-1851): âextermination must continue to be waged until the Indian becomes extinctâ
The main factor which prevented Native American extinction was the fact they were used for slave labor. The most prized Native Americans were young girls who were said to be valued for labor and lust (that one white dude in your ethnic studies class that says heâs 1/36th Cherokee?)
In modern times children were forced into Indian Boarding Schools whose goal was to âKill the Indian in themâ. It was federal policy. They were beaten if they used their native tongue, they were forced to dress and style their hair like whitesÂ
This country was literally built on terrorism and mass murder. White people are savage terrorists.
