@Museek
not sure what you mean. do you claim that white people were never subjected to colonization? or that a particular person did not experience it?
@rakshy referring to Cameron but it was a mis post.
@Museek
he's just a person. some people or their ancestors were subjected to horrific events. others did not. he used a universal story and made a movie out of it. I hope the movie will inspire more respect to other cultures & the environment overall. am I missing something?
@rakshy just Indigenous perspective and you probably didn’t see his comments about Lakota kids or dead-end society.
@Museek
no, I didn't. can you throw a link to me? thanks!
This is what I saw. my daughter is the lineal descendant of the chief killed at Wounded Knee so it’s rather personal.
@rakshy btw.. there wasn’t “compensation” only to a few “friendlies”
The treaties were legally binding. They weren’t doing us any favors.
@Museek while we are at it and IF you have time - can you please recommend any books about your culture?
anything will do: folklore, myths, fiction or non-fic. past or present times. I've been fascinated by how diverse it was before Europeans came. it seems like a lot of hidden treasures and I want to know more.
