I’ve read on the subject pretty extensively. Even disregarding that the Native Americans were defending their homeland and thus had a moral advantage on that alone, we did some wicked ****. You can’t tell me that you can look at the Sand Creek Massacre and hold the US Government as the moral side.

Botanical gardens historically are exclusive spaces, but the University of Washington is working to change that.
Many gardens originated as private spaces for predominantly white and wealthy individuals, said UW Botanic Gardens director Christina Owen. The collections were often curated through a process of stealing and renaming before the gardens were gifted as land to cities and universities.
“There’s a history of colonialism in many botanic gardens,” said Owen. “That is the bedrock on which we’re standing. Plants and collections that exist throughout the world were collected in ways that did not honor the people and did not honor the plants themselves. They’re driven by the colonial age. That’s a history that all gardens must grapple with.”

Hopefully NOW the healing can finally begin

Only a few more of these and the DE&I professionals will be able to declare mission accomplished and dissolve themselves
Go look at how many baby ritualistic sacrifices were done by the Native Americans.
They were savage barbarians.

Boy this thread is buckwild.
But here's a hint. Lizzo is one of the biggest pop stars and probably the biggest American pop star in the world right now. Using her visibility to be like "Hey kids, if you play your instruments, maybe somepoint you can pull some cool **** like this"
This is a massive who gives a **** moment that Trumper pussies who get their panties in a wad over nothing have blown up into somehow being a negative thing. Y'all acting like Lizzo was deepthroating this flute none of y'all knew existed.
Its the leftist dogma now

Is bitch boy upset that Lizzo is hyper successful? Not only is she successful she has more and better connections. Should she not because she's fat?
Sorry bitchboy. that lizzo is offending your sensitive feelings.
Now do Conservatives on George Floyd.
