October 9 is Indigenous Peoples Day, and it’s important to remember the reasons why this is a day to reflect and honor the legacy of generations.
One often forgotten, brutal aspect of the history: how European settlers scalped Native Americans, and were paid money for every scalp, as proof of a killing.
@TheConversationUS@histodons I am an indigene bent on reason and humanity yet many of my countrymen. are bent on an atavistic longing for some imagined past that never was and seek to destroy such improvement we have seen in pursuit of purity and self determination. Indigenes like the rest are flawed at times. Such as now. In Scotland.
