This country was built on human slavery and genocide. Do not minimize or turn away from those evils

Can you stop with this shit? Nobody here is denying anything. We are discussing how we frame history from a modern perspective and whether or not the general population (not some minority) in Jackson's time viewed his actions as unacceptable. If you don't want to have that discussion, go wear your sandwich boards and earplugs elsewhere.

"We" are actually discussing how this country was built on slavery and genocide. Turning away from that fact because it makes you uncomfy won't bring back those who were murdered by the United States
