I know, this might sound crazy, but: Listening to the native Americans?
You don't have to listen to the dead, have you? Just sayin'
Just sayin' but there are still several native tribes still existing across the Americas. We can talk to them.
The American genocide wasn't as thorough as you think it was.
I don't think they were trying to downplay the severity. I think they were just pointing out in a snarky way that there were survivors, and thus, we can ask their descendants these questions.
I'm from a tribe whose ancestral homelands were within the 13 colonies. We have demands and we are not extinct.
