Hey I have an idea. Take back ALL the good things that colonialism brought to the new world, all the european civilization and all that. See how they like living in 'pueblos' and living till they're only thirty with no western medicine and surgery. ALSO, were it not for the Roman Catholic Church (a european import) life would have awful, unbearable and backward for all. RCC priests and nuns helped clothe,feed,educate the indian. RCC helped to do the same for slaves, and ensured slaves'rights in South American such as not splitting up families,etc.

Ah all these people that rail against European colonialism should stop and think what the alternatives would have been. Not saying it was PERFECT, but I'd not turn back the clock.

They should also rid themselves of Spanish, another evil "white man" invention.
