Scholarly estimates generally tend to range between 8 and 20 million indigenous people! By 1900, the United States census showed the Native American population at 250,000...this was truly an American Holocaust. A genocide of massive proportions planned and deliberate! A few examples:
1803- Thomas Jefferson...Indian Civilization Program
1817- James Monroe...Indian Assimilation Program
1829- Andrew Jackson...Indian Removal Act
1860's- Abraham Lincoln...Indian & Dakota Wars
1860's- 1870's- U.S. Grant...Total War Strategy
1887- Grover Cleveland...The Dawes Act
American Holocaust Full Documentary (30 minutes)
Hitler's ideas for concentration camps and genocide owed much to his reading of American History books and it's treatment of Native Americans. He often praised "the efficiency of America's extermination by starvation and combat of the red savages". The land where "All Men Are Created Equal" inspiring a mad man...
Let us never remember only one Holocaust and forget another!
