People in the USA actively participate in theft & genocide as they denigrate First Nation people. It's systematic aggression more sinister than name-calling.
Justifiably or not, (I think not), the USA took extensive lands & properties from the native nations, and sought to exterminate the native communities.
The official label of "savages" was used to dehumanize. Children are taught America was discovered in 1492. Deceived people were forced to accept false treaties, then repeatedly forced to ineffectively defend themselves; now they are coldly mocked.
Genocide is difficult to justify, and natives remain a vague menace; subsequent generations are taught to uncritically accept the homicidal demise and forced displacement of native communities as a fait accompli.
Full reparations & proper punishments are impossible, but very substantial compensation is achievable & vital.
Each of the 458 athletes on the 1980 US Summer Olympic team got medals as boycotting team members.
But they weren't entered for competition, skipped the Games, and didn't take the Athlete's Oath, so they are not Olympians according to the global Olympic movement & IOC.
Dozens of other nations followed US President Jimmy Carter with his Olympic Boycott. Thousands of athletes were forbidden from entering competition. So sad!
Enjoying Tokyo's excellent Olympics 2020? Don't forget the 1980 Summer Olympic boycott.
Did Uncle Sam teach Hawaiians self-government?
No More Yankee Disrespect!
Please end military occupation of Hawai'i.
