RE: This is sad - True Natives of a land forgotten about and not discussed either,

in #history8 years ago

A very good book o this subject is Bury my heart at wounded knee by Dee Brown, an Indian history of the American West, it is heartbreaking, one of the most stunning books I have ever read. A genocide on a scale that is frightening and never discussed or almost erased from history.

Sort:  

So awful what is banished form out knowledge because somewhere along the way it's been a punishable thing to be mentioned, and after a few generations just like any lie told often enough it becomes the truth or in this case forgotten :( I'll have to check that book out, thanks for messaging. x

no problem, its nice to share interests :-)
