Your degree must come from a department and institution that teaches a narrative that all of history is a story of evil, oppressive white man vs. the noble non-whites. In the wars between Indians and colonists/Americans, the main moral difference is that the Indians lost and we won. In fact, had the Indians won, they wouldn't have been so kind as to put whites on reservations with gambling rights, they would have wiped us out.
Many of those "innocent" Indians you PC types cry over were the terrorists of their day: raiding towns, killing or kidnapping non-combatant women, children, and old people.
Your post is ignorant and devoid of relevant facts that I won’t bother to respond any further. We’re talking about civilized Cherokees, not Apaches numnutz.
