- The long and brutal history of the US trying to “kill the Indian and save the man”.

Toward the end of the 19th century, the US took thousands of Native American children and enrolled them in off-reservation boarding schools, stripping them of their cultures and languages. Yet decades later as the US phased out the schools, following years of indigenous activism, it found a new way to assimilate Native American children: promoting their adoption into white families. Watch the episode to find out how these two distinct eras in US history have had lasting impacts on Native American families.
In the Vox series Missing Chapter, Vox Senior Producer Ranjani Chakraborty revisits underreported and often overlooked moments from the past to give context to the present. Join her as she covers the histories that are often left out of our textbooks. Our first season tackles stories of racial injustice, political conflicts, even the hidden history of US medical experimentation.

they called them "uncivilized" after torturing and killing them in the most barbaric ways
Spoken by the one true king! XD (Seriously though, Indigenous people deserve better, not the white supremacists!)
The irony :(
and pushing them out of THEIR land and ruining it.
Absolutely correct
Two lefts don't make a right. They make a down🤷♂️💡
I'm Native American mixed and a kid said go back to your land (mind you, he was white) and I remembered and Said "Get off mine that you stole from me" then I went along with my day
Jai Bourgerie YESSS
Jai Bourgerie put him back in his place 🤩
Ur a genius
M l oof yess they love to ignore that 🥱
M l *native american and no i’m not
I am from London, UK. I had absolutely no idea of these atrocities until I met an Indigenous American man. This disgusting period of history should be taught in all schools in North America, and I would say in Europe too, just as we learn about the Holocaust. Thank You for this video.
Because they don’t teach you colonization and westward expansion in your history lesson …not your fault ..
Jo-annparsons,it's happening in the uk as well to whites,all over the world.
I agree. So many atroclities are never mentioned but we're reminded about the HoIocaust every day.
I can say as a Canadian that I was taught about this horrible period and still taught about this. But all schools in every north American country that partook in this should be taught about this.
I think all the sins against native Americans, Asians, African, Latinos, Carribeans and the rest of those people who are either the original dwellers of the land and co-immigrants should be taught in history of both public and private to remove or at least decrease prejudice in the USA. It was after all the original country of the Native American Indians. Never a white man's land.
Ty all those mentioned above we are brothers from the 12 tribes of yisrael
Racebaiting over this issue is not helpful eithor. such divides and destroys society.
Its not racebaiting, its pointing out how Eurocentric/White Supremist ideology impacts other people groups. Just cause your uncomfortable with it doesn't mean it shouldn't be discussed. Race is always a factor is daily reality to try to ignore that is just another deflection tactic@@lewis7315
@@lewis7315teaching real history shouldn’t be considered “racebaiting” I think it’s important to understand our differences in order to empathize with eachother. By that logic we shouldn’t learn about the holocaust either because “such divides.” Being color blind is more harmful than seeing and being okay with it. Should an amputee hide their missing leg because “such divides” them from the norm??
The so-called aboriginals of America didn't even originate out of America. They migrated. Indigenous and native would be more accurate.
Imagine someones breaks into your home and they want you to act civilized
Oh that is so good! Very well put and easy to visualize!
This is what is happening in Palestine as well except they just want them dead and vanished
That happened to Breonna Taylor too. So we're still doing it in this country.
OF COURSE !!!! Either act civilized OR GET KILLED !!!!!...in your own house !!!!!!!
And that’s bad
I don't understand why they are still called Indians to this day, just because some guy 500 years ago thought he arrived in india.
Facts
Its dying out but it's more commonly used by the older generation
Well, sadly it's not that simple, he's not the cause most Americans say Indian.
I know, I'm a native American, and this ugs me to this day
İt's like the French fries,
French fries were actually originated from Belgium but because the French were more powerful at the time so they renamed it French fries.
This just hits me so hard. I'm native American and I'm so glad to be born now. It just hurts.
And I do feel in my heart that there is a culture that was stolen from me even though I don't know the full story.
I can relate, learning about my history as well hurts but, tbh, moving on is best for me, i got other things in mind
I know it also happened in Australia, they even named it ‘The Stolen Generation’. It’s truely horrible and really dark thinking about what they did to the Natives
i never understand how certain americans say "if you don't like america, leave" when it isn't even their land to start with.
sweetseokie : I'm white American and I will tell you that those "certain Americans" are Trump supporters.
sweetseokie I mean since this land is a country now called the United States with its laws and borders set in place just like almost every country on earth.

Like a Tyrant
About 15 years ago, I met a Native American college student who's grandmother hid him when he was very young to protect him from white social workers trying to take him. Some kids were taken from the tribe but he and others escaped that fate by living in isolated areas where they were never found. By the time he was in tribal schools he was too old to be good target for white adoption. He was one of the brightest and most centered people I have ever met. And I suspect he is doing great things with his life.

Everyone please know this isn’t just AMERICA. our Native American history in Canada is disgusting. We aren’t that innocent.
But Canada at the very least came forth and said they were wrong and tried to reconcile. USA think they are still in the right!

@@mishdyrendahl5912 Did you know that Canada granted Natives basic human rights in 1982? That's even worse than America.

@@ahumanistpotato0501 yeah and our last residential school only closed in the LATE 90s. its horrific.
"We are nations that pre-existed European contact... And we are still here."

ultimately who you are is just how you act when you have the power. white people had the power for the last 500 years and we have seen who they are. Now a days they can play all nice but the reality is they don't have the power today that they used to have so their niceness doesn't mean anything.
toughman101 now the others will be in power and we’ll realise race doesn’t make you who you are
which is kinda false, huh ? it’s clear from the words of Columbus as well as even pictures presented here the Native Americans that pre-existed European contact were a dark skinned people or rather red, as they aren’t today, if they are indeed the indigenous people
@@princereek9893 So true indeed! My family is Blackfoot and Cherokee.
I grew up in Carlisle, and drove past the cemetery where Native American children were buried, but no one told us about what happened until we were in 8th grade. Even then, it was one special presentation for an hour. The town is just beginning to talk about it now.

I'm so grateful this is taught in the UK in history. This needs to be taught more in other countries especially the US and not covered up like it is right now.
Not taught in US schools.
If it was taught in us history then us government would have to agree that this was genocide and must pay reparations. So this isn’t happening soon… real democracy aha.
@@bzhicha A sad reality
UK doesn't teach the true extent of the horrors it inflicted on the nations it colonized. Most colonizer nations do the same.
Ohh okay!! Okay!!! Okay!!! ...it's nice that they teach this to British kids !!! Nice!!! ...but ...u know 😁😁😁😁there is more to be taught....
I hate when people call us Indians. *I am not an Indian.* I’m Indigenous. I’m Ojibway.
Sorry it's just that's what we first thought.
yes! It’s not that hard to listen to us and call us indigenous, I don’t wanna be called an “Indian”
zaria Ironstand Thanks for saying the exact same thing that the actual comment did...
And btw most intelligent ppl don’t refer to your people as “Indians”
You're not indigenous you are whatever your tribe is
King Black if you’re a white american she’s more indigenous than you
there isnt one kind of horrible racist act america did not commit. literally.
And I don’t see Jews asking Germany to pay them money for something that didn’t happen to them
AJ Palmeri but Germany does pay reparations to Jews that still live there so....🤷🏾♂️. Do a little bit of research my friend. When a country is wrong they're wrong.
Archie Ray Germany paid 495 million in 1967 which today is around 1 billion dollars. Still when did slavery happen?? Slavery ended in 1865 and your asking for people to pay now 😂, just to be clear War world two ended in 1945
Archie Ray So by what you said Germany doesn’t pay and Jews who live in Germany today.
AJ Palmeri who brought up slavery? I'm curious because we were talking about native Americans in comparison to what happened to Jewish people. You're all over the place smh.
But I won't dodge your ignorant statement. Are you saying once slavery ended all was well in the US when it came to black people? Systemic racism, civil rights movement and even to this day inequalities at the core of just being an American living day to day is all made up I guess?
I'm proudly Anishinaabe and have lived in Wiikwemkoong for most of my life. Hearing these stories makes me realize just how lucky I am to be here right now, and the massive amount of respect and gratitude I have for my family to survive these brutal American and Canadian policies. This part of our history deserves to be widely spoken about, and widely taught, no matter how hard it is to learn. We're still here, and we deserve respect.
I'd love to speak with Daniel/Nelson, and thank him for his involvement in these interviews. Honestly I've probably seen him at Andy's a couple times before actually, or when I was going to school haha

They aren't American either.
Mae-Lynn Morel They are Native Americans. This is their country. They have the legal rights to put your A$$ out.
“The pale man who burns in the sun “. Wow that was one of the most racist things I’ve ever heard
Drom Assault no their not Latino is a ethnicity
I like your comment. Well said
That's what the spanish did when they met the Aztec and Inca people, they made those natives "latin" and forced the women to mix with spanish men that way it could be easier to control them.
That's the main purpose why they colonize the world.. erasing native identities and culture and established their own.. controlling other countries and exploiting their resources using local corrupted leaders. Anyone who opposes them automatically tagged as dictator or terrorist the enemy of their so called freedom liberty democracy and hypocrisy 🤭
I know a few and they were always very kind and caring. I wasn’t old enough to realize how great of people they actually were, but as I have gotten older, it makes me appreciate them that much more.
America is becoming more of a joke the more I find out...

To separate a child from his/her mother is one of the most cruel crimes ever.
Giuliana CR - they will always feel some where on the outside neither here nor there.
Colonizers started it with the natives, than Africans, natives again, then now at the border they are caging the ancestors of the natives. They don't care
Separating a child from their family and culture is straight-up called a form of genocide.
And it happened again.
It's been happening again at the border and hundreds of kids are missing.

This disgusts me, "the Native Americans showed that they were capable of being civilized". The one who needs to be civilized is not them.
They were probably always civilised, just not towards someone that wants to conquer them. Things like, look, I hit them and they hit back, so they're just as bad at me, are the best pretenses for war. If they would've never been conquered, they would've probably been a more peaceful civilisation than what we got now.
@sleepy Mask
Yeah, different cultures are different. English/European culture was very different from native americans, but that doesn’t mean one or the other is less civilized. They are just different.
@@icantthinkofaname8139 yeah, in general I noticed that people tend to use the pretense of "an uncivilised society deserves war against them" in situations where there are conflicts, or where there is competition. If a civilization is different or also, rather mysterious due to perhaps being newly discovered by another civilisation, different can definitely be perceived as weird, and weird as anything bad that can fit the narrative.
@Alisson Becker yes that is what I like about their culture more. They cared about their surroundings and cherished them. Didn't just use them blindly to gain advantage in war.

I'm one of the Native babies who was adopted out to a white family in 1966 in Alaska. I'm Tlingit and Tsimshian, mixed with Pennsylvania Dutch.
The white parents who adopted me were loving, middle-class blue collar/white collar, we lived off the grid about 1/3 of the year, and they did a good job raising me. They let me know from when I was 2-years old that I was adopted. Out of respect for them, I never went back to the tribe to find my birth mother, although I am a recognized member of the tribes by birth due to involvement of the Bureau of Indian Affairs since before I was out of the womb. I have mixed feeling about being adopted out of the tribe. I loved the parents who raised me, but I do know that I have missed out on experiencing a unique culture with the tribe and community.

That's what British say to Indian(subcontinent) people...when they don't even know India-pakistan is their doing; Bengal famine; jalliawala bagh massacre; suppression of 1857 revolt etc and they say should be thankful to bring technology to India when indian architecture is older and better than theirs..Taj mahal; so many forts; beautiful temples and a civilization as old as time
Albus Severus - Exactly, whether or not the technology was more advanced is irrelevant. The Roman’s bought such “good” stuff: roads, aqueducts, plumbing, cuisine, sanitation, etc. But the British had to live under their rules. You should not have to endure and appreciate another cultures ways because are “more advanced”, because you inevitably loose something precious to you along the way, your freedom, culture, religion, etc.

As a person who grew up in the (so-called) post-colonial Caribbean, I stand with Native Americans on this. No matter how you slice colonialism, it always involves 1) the falsehood that military might = virtue, and 2) large sets of people are condemned and treated like non-humans. Sadly, when one tentacle of colonialism is severed, another emerges, as shown in this report.

LolGuy Get some help. You are not fit for human society.
LolGuy Yea why would your Heart break. You still follow CASTE SYSTEM which is perhaps the biggest from of human exploitation and discrimination for thousands of years. You don’t feel pity for the aboriginal of India ie Dalits.
LolGuy You Hindus did worse to Indian natives ie Lower caste and untouchables than the europeans could ever do to Native americans. So why would you feel anything about them.

Wow, I'm so sorry this happened to you. Are you in contact with your original family?
That must be terrible. Hopefully you can contact family.
They didn't mention the mass graves found at these bording schools, there were many, filled with hundreds of children, which combined was thousands of children.

You're correct but they finesse game is controlled and acted in a way so we the people cant rebutal. Essentially leaving us accountable for their initiative behavors

This is what they did to my great great grandmother. She was taken from her parents and *adopted by missionaries*. They changed her name.

"They were capable of being civilized"

The real American history. We are taught to respect and appreciate our country and we are told our country is amazing, they never teach us what horrors our country has committed.

I wonder if there will ever be a native American President.
gideon agu why not? probably eventually
It took us a very long time to get a black president, but black people aren't going away. Natives are being breed out of existence, so either we get it soon, or we get it never.
not in the white man's world. NO WAY
Not a chance. The most probable is a Mexican president (Native + Spanish)
I mean, Bolivia has had an Indigenous president, but then again like half their population is Indigenous.
a fact: the US has never and will never apologise for anything
Ya
....yet.
US should never exist in the first place.
They actually apologized to Hawaii
they apologised to the hiroshima bomb.
They did the same to Hawaiians and in guam…. The time is now ✊🏾✊🏾 stand strong my natives
I’m not a native. I agree.
Its so weird that they call them Indians.

To any of the “Vox hates America” comments:
If this video makes someone feel like they “hate America,” thats on THEIR conscience. But don’t hide from truth. Knowing the history of this country allows us to be BETTER citizens and truly uphold what we say we stand for. Vox doesn’t “hate America” It just wants it to be as honest a nation as it claims it is. We have a responsibility as Americans to be honest about what we’ve done. So chill out, learn something and then help make the country better. Stop fearing what you don’t agree with.
I agree that this is a part of our history that we should know about, but currently it seems to me that the misdoings of non-native americans agains native americans, as opposed to the misdoings and attempted misdoings by native americans agains non-native ones, or inter-tribe warfare (native americans displacing other native americans), are covered disproportionally. Seems to me that this creates a sort of skewed picture of american history,
@@TorBarstad but it is skewed, that's kinda the point... Settlers killed thousands and thousands of native peoples, disease resulted in the death of millions and then when things seemingly settled down and treaties were signed it was overwhelmingly the non native peoples who broke them. It's not disproportionate, it's just accurate; also, it's important at the same time to study specifically the atrocities done by those in power to make sure we never repeat them.
Over 12 of public education. I took honors classes. Never heard of this before. America is great at hiding its dark history.
Tor Barstad - European colonizers killed 10 million Indigenous people in America. 10 million.
At this point the people who really get mad at stuff like this have to share the same ideologies as their ancestors and that's that
Columbus didn't discover America, the Indians were already here!
Also the vikings had discovered the continent centuries earlier when they discovered Iceland and Greenalnd.
My exact sentiments, when this statement is made about the Bahamas. He met the Arawak Indians with his first landing in 1492 to the new world. Just brought a whole heap of deseases
but thats how it works it happens ver and over new people come others leave.. and I know that horrible things happened tat shouldn't have happened.. and usa should apologize for that (also I live in Europe)
Exactly how you gonna take from already existence?
Africans were here too.
How many indigenous children were in those schools in the USA? In Canada, there were 150,000 indigenous children in the Residential Schools. RIP to all of those precious children that were harmed,...

My old 8th grade teacher literally said:
"Its not in the curriculum, they said it wasn't a big enough event to be in the history books." Then proceeded to teach us these events.
Big enough lol
Great hiding tactic
and they are teaching children this hypocrisy
@@lavonnefox7572 sadly yes
So the pure evil that this country was founded on, isn’t a big enough event, to be in the history books?? Sounds like people don’t want the history of their evil ancestors to be exposed, or found out..
I'm glad my school is taking a step forward and teaching us this important part of history and doing other things no other school I've seen where I live has done like not celebrating Columbus day and going into depth about global warming
Of course there is some things they can improve on but I think it's still nice they're trying to be better than other school. Literally my teacher said when showing us this video "this isn't history it's still happening today maybe not like this but it's still subtly around us. We built our land on this." So I haven't completely lost faith in the school system
I knew about the schools, but had no idea about the adoptions. Thank you for sharing this!
Imagine seeing your child and speaking to them but your child doesn’t understand you because they now speak a different language, that’s horrible
i would cryyyy
My fear as a grandparent
Consumerism
It’s sad as it happens to a lot of immigrants when schools force them to speak English only, even today
This comment made me cry because that is what is happening to me. As an African American born in Africa, I only learnt French and English. My grandmother doesn't understand me neither do I understand her because she speaks our native language. Any time she calls home, I feel sad because she would try her best to communicate with us but in vain...the only conversation points we have are hello and how are you.
Where I come from, the majority of people born in the 2000 don't speak their dialects and we are thought that coming to the America's is an incredible luck...
i’m shocked at how quiet the us has been. in canada, we learn about these schools since we reach like grade 6
sage I learned about it in grade 1 and their still teaching it to us in grade 10
(I live in Quebec btw)
Most of people just dont care.
They live in the greatest debt country in the world, where even ussr prisoners had more rights
sage exactly what i was thinking
In my experience, we’re not really taught about what the USA has done to other countries. Growing up, we’re told that Columbus discovered America and was a hero- never the fact that the Natives were tortured/killed.
The us is quite because of all the disgusting things they have done. Would anyone want to admit that?
Keep strong and courageous my native brothers & sisters. With much Love ❤️Aho!
This just breaks my heart
Meanwhile Americans are lecturing around world on “democracy” and “freedom”.

wow this is so so so very sad and heartbreaking.
I believe the correct title would be: “How European immigrants call themselves American.
The term America and the whole country was built by white people the natives were nobody but just a bunch of kingdoms with sticks and bows....so all the credit and the result of hard work should be enjoyed by them....if not whites any other strong group would have invaded them.....

Adoption is not okay when they take your name, family, and history from you and lock it away. I am white and in 1963 my mother was forced to relinquish me. Minus the genocide, I related to every single thing in this video. It took me 50 years, but I found my mother~~I was always loved and wanted by her despite the lies of the billion dollar adoption industry. I stand in solidarity with indigenous people
I subbed
@Carnivorus What do you think also happened? Did not Europeans kidnap each other during war? Of course they did. Dont always assume Native Americans fought each other when Europeans fought each other more and for more purposeless reasons like money.
@Carnivorus well scale maters
@Carnivorus Because Europeans did more greedy and unspoken acts in history. It was usually all about money.
I believe our Native Americans deserve compensation. I believe they need all of us to help because they are, to this day, being kidnapped and murdered!!
They are our treasure. More time and money is spent on trying to dig up bones, when we have the living among us to take care of and nurture.

The funniest joke I've ever heared was Christopher Colombus (founded) discovered America.
Edit: *discovered
This actually depends on what your definitions for "America" and "found" are. He was probably the first white guy to arrive in Haiti and "found" a european colony. That's an accomplishment, no denying that, but dwarfed by the fact that the "natives" had already sailed and discovered that land prior to him and founded their own colony
God saved real "India" now.... Colombus was in mission to find India but he landed up in America.... Just thinking how India will be if Colombus landed here🤧🤧🤧...
@@mr.manes88 The norse had colonies in canada
I know right. I noticed that when our teacher was teaching us that in 3rd grade. I raised my hand and asked, how did Christopher columbus FIND America? there were Indians living all over America before Christopher got here.... My question got ignored another student was called for their question then a couple minutes after that i was asked to go out to the hallway. A few minutes later my teacher came out there and gave me a booklet to do my days classwork with and she excitedly told me, I got picked to go do my schoolwork for the day in the computer room all by myself with the help from our schools councilors for the day. It worked.... Took my mind right off of everything i was excited i got to go play in the computer room all by myself!!! Now When i got older i know what happened there and let me tell you.... What a shame! Shame on american schools who do not teach us the truth! Still to this day even though many kids call out the teacher, they are still taught about Christopher columbus and how he found america! Its a real shame!
said no on ever. he was the first popular person to explore the new world, not "founded" america. there was a european nordic dude that explored north eastern canada before him, but columbus introduced europe to the new world
It’s like Americans don’t know when to stop doing the same wrong thing over and over
American's are many things. many were not here when slavery happened or this happened. you cannot blame "American's" for a wrong that a Government did.

I disagree. Americans still send their children to the military, or stay there so their children join the military.
If they really disliked what their government is doing, they should go to another country, better than helping the economy of a criminal country and growing its militarymen.
They don't even protest against these things, they just don't care, they only care about their lives. Selfishness.
Americans are accomplices!
