YES Critical Race Theory = Real History

OMG, another reason to have more disgust for this country.

I don't believe the $300 number.

California only paid $0.25 to $5 for each Indian scalp.

The article is proof positive that the Catholic church has historically mistreated and misused the weak among us.

The article does not address the amount of money paid for scalps in The Dakotas. Note the original claim was up to $300 per scalp. It is easy to surmise that Chiefs would bring a higher price.

@Lorajay That's a good point. $300 for the chief, or for some Indian suspected of a crime would make sense.

Yes, and it's interesting that most of us didn't even know about that history until it came to light while Trump used it as a backdrop for a speech/rally and the location was scrutinized and criticized by one side, and praised even more because of that history by the other.

Grant was a great general, but a rotten President. For one, he was badly advised and railroaded into certain policies by his Cabinet. (Not saying this was one of those necessarily.) Given the alternatives at the time, he was still the lesser evil.

Sad part of history
