I dont believe you, a couple years back ya'll were getting worked up about federal property being vandalized and wanted people shot, and that wasnt even your stuff
Speaking of native Americans and eating I watched a pretty cool documentary the other day on native Americans trying to reclaim their culinary history, called Gather. Repopulatimg Bison. Foraging. It was solid. I think it's on Netflix.
Yeah I’m on the same team, team America. Anyone trying to rip it apart should be crushed. I feel the same way about the morons storming the capitol halls on Jan 6th.
"Eating one's own" is an interesting criticism generally. Seems the very opposite of "rules for thee but not for me." Is the argument the left applies its standards to itself, and if so, wouldn't that normally be commendable at least based upon the consistency of it?
When we toured the royal jewels it was this one came from this country, that one came from that country...all looted and plundered from around the world
In some cases, yeah. In many others, museums have known since the day they took possession where it came from. Pictures, journals, written records etc. it was just considered acceptable for centuries. In others, museums and private collectors are willing to buy from shady middle men for plausible deniability. It’s always been a really shady industry, needs to be cleaned up. Telling museums to be accountable for what they have isn’t the worst idea.
The best museum I've been to was in Lima, Peru. Had a nice collection of pre-Columbian pornographic pottery. Dirty minds go back a long way.
Try bureaucrats getting ate up by bureaucracy. And of course, bureaucrats are basically lefties. Y'all's clergy as it were, since yall worship government.
From museum group last summer: New Standards for Museums with Native American Collections (SMNAC) Now Available
Before they lost land (and women and children and horses and foodstuffs and on and on) to us, they often lost it to other tribes. The Sioux fought multiple tribes over territory and resources in the Great Plains. I was born in Sioux Lookout way up in NW Ontario where the name ostensibly came from the need for Ojibway having to occupy a (small) mountain on the watch for Sioux raiding party excursions way up into the Canadian Shield. The Hurons and Iroquois were famous enemies in the east. The Aztecs and Mayans were rivals to the south. How far back in time do we go to regulate the rightful owner (profiteer?) of a native artifact? Do I have to track down the rightful owner of a broken piece of native pottery I found 40 years ago…anyone have a cell number for the Timucuans?
This is just one more cry for racism by people that forget the actual history of the Americas before the evil whites came. People feel we are in a post war utopian society because they look only to their personal experience and forget actual history.
