>I enjoyed seeing the old 1950s western TV shows.

Indians were largely portrayed as saints in those old shows<

They were portrayed more even handedly. They were not just faceless villains (as in the 30s) or noble Saints (as today).

More than even-handed, they were largely seen as saintly, there was a lot of woke back then, it was more subtle but it is how the left works, they go overboard now but for the first few decades they led America along gently.

I’ll add something to post 8, I thought that show about the Indian Federal Marshall was well-done because his character was realistic and well-written, and he dealt with things as he really would have rather than make it always a lesson about racism, they avoided that easy and boring, and unrealistic route.
