  • @RidingMonkey30 Primary source documents. People that actually lived in the 1600s and wrote things down as they happened. That is where this came from.

  • @MeJonB the same way Hitler took Poland and the Jew's rights. It's called war and genocide.

  • @musicnam1234 so what was different about the pilgrims? was it the witch burnings? is that what made them better?

  • @MeJonB listen... different cultures are basically different groups of people who have different customs and different values. From a European perspective perhaps they weren't using the land to it's potential, But the Native people had been subsisting sustainably here for millenia. different values affect how someone exploits their environment. I'm sure that to them parking lots and strip malls are not using the land to it's potential. They liked the abundance of fish, game, 600yr old trees.

  • @mommajjones WOW this is some of the most racist shit I've ever read as a comment on youtube. Congratulations, dick.

  • @petertrem but it's ok if you're talking about Indians to be bigoted. The Pilgrims were basically Westboro Baptist Church as a colony.

  • @danielngayla Cite your sources please.

  • @petertrem HAHAHA the Haudenosaunee civilized and peaceful???? Not If you speak algonquin. First of all lets pretend for the sake of your argument that it isn't inherently racist to brand an entire people as "warlike." if there was a "warlike" Indian nation, it was the Iroquois. The deciding factor was a dogmatic ideology of racial superiority, a Prostelytizing religion, a concept of permanent individual land ownership that did not exist for the Natives, and most importantly Lies.

  • @petertrem...shall we judge Hitler by his time? I mean he fed starving Germans...does that make our view on the Jewish holocaust biggotted? or are Natives less valuable than other humans? Wow...you all make me really sad... The fact remains...the East coast tribes are virtually gone...end of! If you aren't part of the solution you are part of the problem. end of.

  • @danielngayla...REALLY?  you are really that ignorant...REALLY? wow...peace to you and yours...I hope truly that none of your loved ones endure what my people have. Wow...I am stunned by your ignorance and the brashness to spew it forth so openly.
