Very valuable video. She talks about the ethnic cleansing of Native Americans from the South. Incredible that we have film footage of someone that at least vaguely remembers that period.

I knew what this was in the first 5 seconds from Aesop's Amphitheatre to the book of Acts, to PT Barnum, Buffalo Bill Wild West, antebellum, World Fairs (expositions), to Rebecca Felton. People have always fallen for this and they always will. 1929, yeah OK, I wonder what the Screen Actors Guild was called before 1933.

1:18 This is why I feel its the government not our neighbors, not the European descendants who arrived here during the turn of the century but the Government who should pay reparations to the descendants of our enslaved ancestors, the very descendants who were born in the United States because it was the government, even presidents who own slaves themselves even this evil excuse for a human being owned slaves, who turned a blind eye while our ancestors were being brutalized on a daily basis. And the newly arrived Africans should not receive reparations since their ancestors are the ones who sold us to the Europeans as well they weren't on those slave ship voyages to the be enslaved.
