Professor Foner is awesome. I've read a few of his books and I use his text book in my U.S. history classes. I could listen to him all day. Thanks for posting.
The populations of the 1st Nation were decimated under colonial expansion and reservations (concentration camps?). The populations from Africa were decimated under slavery, apartheid, poverty neighborhoods and prison. Lots of bad karma for this country.
+John E not just bad karma for the country , it is bad karma for western civilization as a whole because of the misery it has wrought to keep all of the wealth and resources for themselves.
Natives and Africans brought plenty of misery to eachother and others as well. Blacks and native americans aren't special or uniquely moral; they're just mad because they lost.
I am anti-caste-system and will not accept any form of caste-system in my country. Does that make me a racist against Hindus? No. There are international human rights, composed by very smart people! They must be respected by law. I am against Islam, because they worship a person that is almost the exact opposite of the international human rights. Does that make me a racist? No. I simply dislike the ideology with grounded reasons. People being anti-Muslim are not stupid, social justice is irrational. PS: Jezus was a pacifist, said all humans were equal and took care of the handicapped etc... so abolishing Christianity is probably the most stupid thing of this century. Our most important social values like monogamy, pacifism and equality are Christian. (Grtz; a non-religious Belgian student Economical and Social Sciences; Un. of Antwerp.)

that's human history in general...going back thousands of years, not just the last couple hundred when Whites were predominately doing it. Look it up!

Rights are imaginary, only if backed by force are they "real".
People that are against islam are not by default not stupid. They can be complete retards or geniuses..
We dont need religion to give us "good" values.....
Lol you are so misinformed sir.
