Native American warriors attacked and butchered American troops and innocent American men, women and children. They owned slaves long before Columbus.
Why are there statues of them on American soil?

Muslims attack the USA
The British fought us for Independence
The Spaniards fought us
So did the Mexicans. Let’s rename ALL Spanish named roads, cities, counties, states. Same for Indians
The Japanese and Germans fought us. So did the Italians.
The Vietnamese. Same thing
Blacks rioted in our cities and destroyed historic buildings, hoods, shopping areas. How many malls have had to close, schools closed, hoods trashed out? Let’s rename all MLK and Obama stuff. Booker T and GW Carver too.
AIDS has killed one million plus. Harvey Milk monuments? NFW
The Kennedys? Marilyn and Mary Jo cry out from their graves.
The Clintons? No comment necessary
FDR? He packed the USSC with far leftists. Now look at what we have.
Truman? Red China, NorKo.
New Mexico is full of them. Also the Spanish slave owners. We have several dozen Spanish Land Grants, almost all of which were maintained by slaves. Get rid of these disgusting slave proud designations. And I think the state of Washington and the city of Washington DC should change their names so they are not honoring that horrible slave owner, George Washington. (/s)
LOL good point!
Oh wait, but the ONLY time the commie leftists are 100% rah-rah pro-”American” is when it comes to the so-called Civil War. Interesting how Dems LOVE Lincoln and the US there, but everywhere else the US is EEEEVVVIIIIILLL.
BTW, the irony of the monuments that DO indeed exist for Indians (I will not call them “native American” - I am native American), is they are often erected BY whites in honor of their bravery and/or honor. I’ve witnessed a few albeit mostly hidden and secret in New England.
If we followed the left’s way, would we have to close the Indian Casino’s across the USA.

The ancestors of the current Indians owned slaves.
So close their casinos or give them to the BLMers and illegals er Hispanics without contry.
And they kept slaves!
So many of the plains tribes, from Mexico to Canada, joined the SOUTH in the Civil War. There are monuments to American Indians in Oklahoma who joined the Southern Cause.
About the only plains Indians who stayed loyal to the North were the Pawnee, Crow and the Yakaton Sioux and a few Osages.
A few of each tribe did join the North but most made treaties with the South.
Excellent point. Once you start deleting history, where do you stop?
Even the so called civilized tribes, like the Cherokees owned slaves before the evil white Europeans came here.
The link below tells us how the Cherokees owned slaves including blacks up to basically the civil war.

They were not considered American citizens at the time. Therefore they are not considered traitors.

>> “Should N.A. reservations, monuments, statues be destroyed?” <<
Yes!

Stand Watie was a Ani Yun Wiya (Cherokee) leader and a general in the Confederate Army...
Abraham Lincoln and Elvis Presley have Melungeon heritage....
BUT, where is the brave breakthrough nonconformist to shatter all the rancid, leftist doubleunplusgood groupthink?
IS The Word Cherokee as spelled in its native language.
But.....
I was taught the proper pronunciation is "Tsa-la-gi"
The Cherokee held slaves
Tsalagi is the Muskogee Creek name for my tribe...It means “speaks a different tongue...
The white man bastardized Tsalagi into Cherokee...
Our name is Ani Yun Wiya which means “principle people”
