The Republicans say there has never been a Native American genocide.
Therefore, the US must alsonot take the consequences.
The descendants of the survivors of the Native American genocide in today's United States have not only a right to recognition of injustice and of suffered grief but "also on material compensation". With the recent behavior towards the victims in Native awaken the United States "the impression that there was for them two categories of genocide: a entitled to reparation and without" the, with their relations with the Native American victims in the United States put reproach that they judge a genocide of human red skin color as less serious.

Soul Wound: The Legacy of Native American Boarding Schools.
Scholars have described the residential boarding schools as “labor camps,” or experiments in modified slavery, run in the grueling, regimented manner of military schools.
Government officials found the Carlisle model an appealing alternative to the costly military campaigns against Indians in the West. Within three decades of Carlisle's opening, nearly 500 schools extended all the way to Usa.. church and Us Government officials killed children by beating, poisoning, electric shock, starvation, prolonged exposure to sub-zero cold while naked, and medical experimentation, including the removal of organs and radiation exposure.
The Government passed legislation allowing school officials to forcibly sterilize Native girls. when they reached puberty.
The Government officials "rented out" children from residential schools to pedophile man.
The grounds of several schools contain unmarked graveyards of murdered school children, including babies born to Native girls raped by priests and other church officials in the school.
It is one of the grossest human rights violations because it targeted children and was the tool for perpetrating cultural genocide. To ignore this issue would be to ignore the human rights of indigenous peoples, not only in the U.S., but around the world."
Physical hardship, however, was merely the backdrop to a systematic assault on Native culture. School staff sheared children's hair, banned traditional clothing and customs, and forced children to worship as Christians. Eliminating Native languages — considered an obstacle to the "acculturation" process — was a top priority, and teachers devised an extensive repertoire of punishments for uncooperative children.
The boarding schools weren't just meant to civilize and Christianize Native Americans, but to create a generation that would be more willing to cooperate and sign their land away to the government. Some reservations were sitting on coal and oil reserves and the government wanted it.
U.S. authorities and churches took Native children from their homes and forced the children to school, and tried to beat, the native american out them.
The boarding schools ran on bare-bones budgets, and large numbers of students died from starvation and disease because of inadequate food -medical care-beating and sexual abuse. School officials routinely forced children to do arduous work to raise money for staff salaries and "leased out" students during the summers to farm or work as domestics for white families.
Church officials, missionaries, and local authorities prefer children as young as five .Transfer the native american savage-born infant to the surroundings of civilization, and he will grow to possess a civilized language and habit..
They forced others to enroll in Christian day schools on reservations. Those sent to boarding school were separated from their families for most of the year, sometimes without a single family visit. Parents caught trying to hide their children lost food rations
Virtually imprisoned in the schools, children experienced a devastating litany of abuses, from forced assimilation and grueling labor to widespread sexual and physical abuse.
This Native American resend generations learned the fine art of standing in line single-file for hours without moving a hair, as a lesson in discipline; where our best and brightest earned graduation certificates for homemaking and masonry; where the sharp rules of immaculate living were instilled through blistered hands and knees on the floor with scouring toothbrushes;
Eliminating Native languages — considered an obstacle to the "acculturation" process — was a top priority, and teachers devised an extensive repertoire of punishments for uncooperative children. There was forced to eat an entire bar of soap for speaking the mother Native American language.
The Boarding school wasn't really about education,.The Children didn't learn basic concepts in math or English, such as parts of speech or grammar.
At boarding schools, the curriculum focused mostly on trades, such as carpentry for boys and housekeeping for girls.
If yo look directly at this system the try build slavery Butlers and slavery House Cleaning woman for rich People and laboratory rates to earn new medical knowledge. In addition to bringing in income, the hard labor prepared children to take their place in white society — the only one open to them — on the bottom rung of the socioeconomic ladder.
church officials killed children by beating, poisoning, electric shock, starvation, prolonged exposure to sub-zero cold while naked, and medical experimentation, including the removal of organs and radiation exposure.
The Government passed legislation allowing school officials to forcibly sterilize Native girls. when they reached puberty.
The Government officials "rented out" children from residential schools to pedophile man.
"All goes along quietly out here," one priest wrote in 1900, with "good religious and lay faculty" at the mission. There are troublesome staffers, though, including "Chappy," who is "fooling around with little girls -- he had them down the basement of our building in the dark, where we found a pair of panties torn." Later that year, Brother Francis Chapman was still abusing children, though by 1900, he was "a new man," the reports say. In 1903, Chappy again "has difficulty with little girls."
Some documents are more discreet than explicit. In 1908, two nuns at St. Paul's Indian Mission, on the Yankton Sioux Reservation, also in South Dakota, had excessive "interest in" and "dealings with" older male students, says a report to Church higher-ups. Another nun has "too close a circle of friends, especially two boys."
What ex-students describe as rampant sexual abuse in South Dakota's half-dozen boarding schools occurred against a backdrop of extreme violence. "I'll never forget my sister's screams as the nuns beat her with a shovel after a pair of scissors went missing,
The grounds of several schools contain unmarked graveyards of murdered school children, including babies born to Native girls raped by priests and other church officials in the school.
Native America were physically and sexually abused in government-run boarding schools by class-action. This children were tortured in the middle of the night. They whip them with boards and sometimes with straps.
Native American girls has molested by priest and had to watch them doing it by the other girls .
The children call their teachers "uncle" or "auntie" and "don't think of them as authority figures, "It's there history form of respect, and it's a form of acknowledgment."
The effects of the widespread sexual abuse in the schools continue to ricochet through Native communities today. You should know that experiences of such violence are clearly correlated with posttraumatic reactions including social and psychological disruptions and breakdowns.
I describe the destruction of their culture as a "soul wound,"
The abuse has dealt repeated blows to the traditional social structure of Indian communities. Before colonization, Native American generally enjoyed high status, according to scholars, and violence against women, children, and elders was virtually non-existent.
The first step is .When the elders who were abused in these schools have the chance to heal, then the younger generation will begin to heal too.
The unnecessary or arbitrary use of force and i will not rest until all policing in the United States respects human rights and accept the native american history was genocide

The world's conscience buried the Native American prematurely
under a mountain of artificial fantasy stories.
After the almost extinction of the Native Americans in the new america army of writers and screenwriters have created a panopticon twisted and trivialized caricatures of "Native Americans".
The genocide of the Indians has soaked the foundations of the United States with blood. The perfidy, cruelty and systematic slaughter are a closely guarded secret.
But about the surviving Native American, secluded in their reserves and their current problems which the genocide has brought with it the United States world cared very little.
A lot of families in the United States today, which came as settlers at that time to the New World were involved in the Native American genocide that time..
The descendants of the survivors of the Native American genocide, in today's United States have not only a right to recognition of injustice and suffered grief
but also return the Land. of the Native American Nations.
With the previous way of dealing with respect to the victims of the Native American Holocaust bring the United States "the impression that there are two categories of genocide: one with and one without entitled to redress.
With their behavior toward the Native American victims, the United States is open to the charge that they judge a genocide of human with red skin color as less loathsome. Today historians, anthropologists and archaeologists are revealing that information on this holocaust is being deliberately eliminated from the knowledge base and consciousness of Americans and the world. Where are the monuments? Where are the memorial ceremonies? Why is it being concealed? The survivors of the Native American holocaust have not yet died and already there is a movement afoot to forget what happened.
The destruction of our Native American culture goes further in new forms.
Silence and denial suppress what was happening and what is going on today. Try to find somewhere in the major American media report that. Almost nothing is brought about and certainly not explained.
The survivors represent a tiny fraction of the original number. Also, they symbolize the longstanding American tradition of carnage and malignancy. After centuries of systematic slaughter the Statistical Office estimates at about a quarter million US survivors. And they live in an eternal struggle to make ends meet.
The US is the ideology of Western democracies.
The Government has put everything that the fate of the last free people, not overly aroused the interest of world public.

We have a dream that one day our children and their children to follow may freely practice the religious ceremonies that come from our Creator. We must stand together and fight those, like Resolution Copper, that seek to take our religious freedom, our most human right,” he says in his letter. “If we do not, our beliefs, our spiritual lives, the very foundation of our language, our culture and our belief will no longer be in balance, and we will become undone. If we do not, the taking of one people’s human right threatens all human and religious rights. We’re not giving up on our sacred land. A law can be passed but a law can also be repealed or revised or amended. What was a struggle to protect our most sacred site is now a battle.


You say to me that the land where I live is not sacred land!
But how do you know this?
You tell me that you have consulted the list of special Indian sites
that is kept in Washington DC
and since my piece of land is not on this list, then it is ONLY ordinary land.

But I tell you that this is wrong!!
The land where I worship has been with my people for a long time.
We know it's real meaning ... we know our own ceremonies.
We know what is sacred and what is not!

Do not presume to tell me ... what is sacred in my own culture!
It is not my job - to provide you with a list of my sacred places.
If you would talk to us with respect and humility
Then perhaps we will discuss the truth with you.
But I am not required to explain myself to the outside world.
I am no-one's Redskin"!!

What is sacred to us - has been sacred for centuries ... a long time.
We respect and love the Earth
This does not change with us.
Therefore ... you do NOT have the right to take it away!"
