Even at the time of the American Revolution, you see treaties with the Delaware Indians th…
Exactly as you described it. I had the privilege to discuss the issue with the late Russell Means ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell_Means ) a few years ago. What's disgusting is that the abuse continues to this very day. First they were decimated, then they were forced into "reformation camps" to break their spirit, and then casino licenses and the like were thrown to them as a bone (and to corrupt and silence t…
I met one of the creators of the movie in Chicago. One of the guys behind it, Jeff Spitz, is a very articulate advocate and has been following this story since 2000. His group followed up the movie with webisodes to update the story and use the movie to put pressure on the EPA.
It's just affirmative action. This sort of thing happens in every multicultural country, especially when one group apparently does better financially than the others. http://www.amazon.com/Affirmative-Action-Around-World-Empiri...

E.g. http://www.math.msu.su/admission/MATWRITE/w2001j~1.gif does not seem much easier than "jewish" problems; and my understanding is that math department of MSU attempts to admit brilliant people who deliberately prepare to solve problems of this kind.

Better don't tell this "wisdom" to those who were discriminated in Russia. They won't appreciate it.
Implying that all the others who were discriminated against don't count.
And there were lots of them. Including, by these articles, victimized by MGU admissions.
