Those schools were run by the Catholic Church, also some of the kids had numbers tattooed on their forearms like what was done to the Jewish people in concentration camps in WW2
How could they have lost out on generational wealth when certain tribes in America actually get money put down for them kind of like in a kitty and that kitty of money grows for each and every Indian Child in certain tribes from the time they're born until the age of 18 in some instances that stockpile of money is as much as $180,000. That is primarily one of the reasons why you never hear anyone in the Indian Community hollering about reparations the way that they do in the p o c communities. And they never will they don't have the same monetary issues, that people of color do. I know at least two or three people that are part of the Cherokee band of Indians in Oklahoma by the time most young people turn 17 or 18 years old they basically leave school with a fairly good amount of money to their names. They can either go to college and claim their Indian status scholarships. Or if not for whatever it is worth at least they have a fair amount of money to put forth towards some sort of college as opposed to walking in threadbare with nothing.
