American Indian Holocaust

The video begins with a list of 10 references (books) that seek to document there was an intentional genocide of the American Indian that reduced the Indian population from 5 to 12 million when the first Europeans arrived to 250,000 four hundred years later in 1900. Then I concentrate on the wars in the Great Plains from the assault on an Indian Village on the Washita river in Kansas in 1868 to the massacre at Wounded Knee in South Dakota in 1890. These wars were ordered by President Grant when he put General Willian Tecumcseh Sherman and General Phil Sheridan in command. Sherman had declared himself insane during the Civil War and he was sent back to Ohio to recuperate and General Sheridan was the man who said: "The only good Indian is a dead Indian." A madman and a arch racist were in charge of the extermination of the American Indians.

To live life the way the indians did. Teach our children to be self sustaining.Use solar power for electric&technologies in our homes,trains,planes,ships and cars.We could become a self sufficient people as they were, growing food from the land, hunting deer (clothing and meat),wasting nothing. Money for healthcare,services&travel. All of us could live off the land,helping one another and be family. Our earth, minds&bodies would be healthy,just think of how many less problems we would endure :)

@indianirishfrench Point well taken. If we start in our own backyards, maybe the trend will catch on and become a custom, rather than an anomaly.

Here are parts of our history that is not always discussed and it hasn't changed, Indians don't have their land back, we basically continue thinking this country is a white man's country. I wonder what life today would have been like if we had just shared the land with them without the wars, the tricks and so on.

@orlandobabe We can get lost in dwelling on what might have been or we can think about working for social justice. So long as you breathe, you can speak and act on behalf of truth and justice, in ways small and great. History is a magnificent tool to understanding the ways of the world.

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS IS HITLER!!!

[radiohogan]

@TheOrangeNinjaTurtle Of all days to celebrate Italian heritage in the U.S., Columbus Day is used. Columbus was a front man for Spain and a mission to carry out. The condemnation goes beyond one man.

I am a Rosebud Sioux Indian! Seeing and hearing of all the crimes that has happnd to my people makes my cry and fills me with hate! I feel hopeless as ther is nothing I can do about the past and wut is still hapning to my people! They called us savages! But it is america and it's people who r the real savages!

indigenous Indian, not American.

[StSimonMartyr]

Old Testament believes in 'Chosen people' while the New Testament does not-it is grace not race, works and faith that saves.

Judaized Protest-ants and Jews were those guilty of this ideology and using it/defending it with germ warfare on the indians. Very sad.. Horrific and certainly not christian.

[greencatmusic]

@StSimonMartyr this disgusting practice, as you say, germ warfare, was even depicted proudly in American art. What does it say about the hypocrisy of the word "civilised" and how profoundly does this behaviour heap disgrace upon the so called 'religion' and scriptures these monsters were forcing Indians to adopt?

[greencatmusic]

@AnthonyWhitmore1990 I understand. You will need to draw upon the beautiful traditions of your noble ancestry to banish hate and rise above the savages (we all know who they are)

[StSimonMartyr]

A Jew, Jacob Amheart, introduced small pox blankets (Germ warfare) to the indians, and this practice was defended by Protest-ants who cited scripture to defend it.

This resulted in over 20 million deaths.

Prior to this practice, the indians were well treated, converted to Christianity under the missionaries who were Catholic.

@trajan75 hitler the viking.

[trajan75]

@TheOrangeNinjaTurtle Are you nuts?

[3023301]

what about what the spanish did to the aztecs? what about what the greeks did to the trojans?

[interstellarwonder]

@vikingjustice15 oh i see, so you say it's okay to kill and murder ppl?

[paulinotou]

@OneProvidence iraq war 2? the fact that they were killed for imperialistic purposes doesnt make it genocide. in that case half the wars in history would be considered genocides, which aint true. Vietnam isnt a genocide, it was a defense of the south. the south and the north vietnamese were the same people by the way and we supported the south. and i hope you arent referring the holocaust as the holohoax. are you a dumbass? the horrors people saw then, and you just make a un empathetic comment
