Bill, supposedly you have a college education. Thus, you should know thatThe first time Soweto or any township ceased to be a nighttime prison was barely over a decade ago. When was the first occasion when indians were allowed to come and go from some reservation?
presenting historical facts (F-A-C-T-S) is not synonomous with paranoid
(concerns for one's well-being, beliefs of threats to oneself or property,
belief in conspiracy theories).
Fact: reservations were the equivalent of jails and residents were not
allowed beyond the boundaries.
Fact: 1928 federal laws were passed designating American Indians "humans"Was this an occasion when a suspected criminal was loose? The same happens all the time in our cities, when the self-appointed gods take over a whole neighborhood.
and allowing them the right to vote and participate in legal actions.
Thus, facts provided for your information, FYI. And, I'd suggest you do some reading on a couple of reservations which routinely are locked down by the feds. That means it still goes on today.
