Comment on Anon lives in the midwest
agreed. technically, both are native.
Well no, the Amish were settlers too. They’re just working with the Indians instead of in spite of the Indians.
they were all born there. we need to stop considering ancestors and consider the living.
We can stop when we actually give them the same opportunities and protections white people get. You don’t get to oppress a population for 500 years and then just act like nothing happened.
did the current, living Amish oppress them? did I? did you? who is the “you” in your sentence?
Which laws and policies give preference to people with white skin?
