And what can I say about your blatant racial discrimination of Black people

We are doing things to address things but it will take time , what are you doing other than keeping the status quo

Did read & cannot see any post or report showing that Native Americans have had their country handed back by descendants of European settlers who rather than face a new life in a new world brought their old order with them.

All I can see is too many individuals knocking each other's country based on events from the past - A past in which many living today had nothing to do with that past.

BTW you are correct in stating that the United States of America did not exist in the 16th century - However America did :-)

The topic was Australia and Aborigines and the racism there and we in the USA being told AU was better and must learn from it, which was pointed out wasn't so. AU white power structures are deciding what land to give back with what terms and it is the land they don't want to begin with. So it is as racist as ever, just under the guise of being fair so the power structure can get a good nights sleep and nothing really changes.

That being the example the USA is supposed to follow to attain some form of pure anti-ism. Sometimes BS needs to be laid bare. Too often people believe the propaganda of a solution that isn't one because they want to feel good about themselves for doing something positive. (And BTW AU, what you are doing is what we did and you see the result 100 years on in the USA today. You have been warned!)

What the English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Russians did in the Americas was a war crime of genocide. What happened in Africa was another war crime of genocide. Maybe the ICC should work corruption of blood and bring their descendants to trial? Maybe empty the treasuries of those countries for repayments? I'm sure that will solve everything.

Truth be told the debt is beyond the ability to repay. Now what? Get off the stolen continents and let them go back to a non-western life? Educate and integrate so they can be productive western style, which destroys their culture?

Perhaps that is better discussed in the Racist thread.

points to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redfern,_New_South_Wales
don't see anything about land being give back
According to the 2011 census, Redfern has a population of 12,035 people, with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people making up 2.4% of the population. 50.8% of the population were born overseas. 61.7% of the population only spoke English at home, with the most important other languages being Chinese (5.5%), Greek (2.1%), Russian (2.0%) and Arabic (1.7%). 34.5% of the population marked no religion, higher than the national average. Of the remainder, 18.9% were Catholic, 9.1% Anglican, 3.9% Eastern Orthodox, and 3.8% Buddhist.

Just for you Gary seeing as that wiki page makes Redfern look great

If you come to Sydney lets say not a good idea to walk around the High street and Railway Station of Redfern at night unless your a local Black Fella

But, are you lot going to give it ALL back? Even if WE did the same first?

Seems to me that we are talking about depopulating the bulk of 3 continents and some portions of a 4th. Europe is gonna get CROWDED.

Furthermore, what proportion of native ancestry does one have to have to be eligible to stay? In my case, I am 1/8th Chiricahua (home range Southwestern USA and Northern Mexico) and 1/16th Cherokee. The rest is a mixture of Celtic and Germanic tribes from Europe with a rather small amount of Middle-Eastern thrown in. Would I qualify to stay?

How about the Mexicans? 70% of the Mexican population is either of mixed European and native ancestry ('Mestizo' - 60%), all European (mostly Spanish with some others such as French - 9%), or other (black or Asian - 1%)... only 30% of Mexicans are of pure Native ancestry. How many of them would have to leave?

You are opening up a BIG can of worms on this subject.

Just so you know Glenn that wiki page says it was bought not given.

So when are you guys going to give the whole continent back?

How much extra will you have to pay to erase all your unwanted illegal improvements (cities, roads ...)?

Good post.

Think it's Athletes & Celebrities that is doing that.

It's 2016 not 1716, isn't it about time that everyone got off the (insert nationality here) American & see themselves as American only.

As for Europe getting overcrowded, well, Frau Merkel did say "come one, come all" :-)

This guy couldn't miss the point further if he fired in the wrong direction and the point was in a different county!

Rep. Steve King wonders if Colin Kaepernick is “sympathetic to ISIS” because his girlfriend is Muslim

The latest comes from Rep. Steve King (R-IA), who asserts that Kaepernick, a player for the San Francisco 49ers, protested racism because his girlfriend, MTV’s Nessa Diab, is a Muslim during a Monday interview on the conservative talk show The Steve Malzberg Show, Salon reported.
