  • This is a crucial subject - thanks for uploading. It would be great if this and other videos could tell where from etc. so we can use them it with references and spread the information around. Aboriginal people in Canada are currently threatened by something modeled on like the infamous Dawes Act. Meegwetch!

  • @joeboi85 Jejeje just ask Mexico! Heck most of Central America as well.
