Can American Indians even have history, with no “native” written language?
So dont believe for even a minute that Minnesota is a looney bin.
And the natives have always been seeking political power. They became white inside as soon as they saw the $$$$ signs they could soak the government for.
They used to be the biggest welfare draw in the twin cities. Drugs, booze prostitution were all the jobs they usually had .
Of course they have a history. Whether or not it's accurately recorded is another matter.
