The genocide of the American Indians was a constant affair that persisted from this nation's founding until, at the earliest, around the turn of the century. Some would say it's still ongoing. Like how October 7th was not the start of a genocide against Palestinians but a pivotal moment in an ongoing genocide, the same could be said of the Indian Removal Act.
