The US government says sorry and erected a few statues of Native Americans so it’s all good tho, at least until whenever the US again decides to go after whatever ethnic group is next in line.
“Sorry about killing like a 100 million of your people, but I made this cool rock thing tho! We all good? Right? No hard feelings?”
Why is only US colonization included? Lots of that area marked “native lands” had been settled by the Spanish and French before 1775.
This is also a reminder that amerikkka can and will take more land if given the chance, land loss happened as recent as 1992, its not a super old thing we should “get over.”
In fact, 1992 is not really long ago. Unrelated but in addition I’d like to add that the civil right’s movement (1960’s) happened very recently, they just black and white the photos to make it seem very old, when really it hasn’t been a century yet. And it still happens that countries fuck over Natives even right now as I’m typing this. Companies that the average American buy from do it all the time (looking at you Coca-Cola.)
Source of the maps?

This way is completely wrong. The entire west coast was owned by Native Americans in 1850? So all the land owned by the Spains dating back to the missions established in the 1700s don’t count eh?
