Did Jesus bless
the countless broken treaties by the U.S. government;
the slaughter of whole tribes including women and children;
the distribution of disease ridden blankets;
the fortunes made by business men and Indian Agents selling rotton and inedible food to the Native Americans;
and
the children torn from families and sent to far away "Christian" schools where their language, customs, and hair were taken away from them?
