这是一位美国健在的白人女博士的文章,有这么段话:
.....
From the 1850s to the early 1900s, Indian land was even further reduced by the Dawes Act; 90,000 more Indians became homeless and 90 million acres of Indian land were lost.
Dakota hangings, 1862
Mass executions occurred throughout the country. Soldiers massacred women and children at Sand Creek, Colorado in 1812; no one was ever held responsible. The U.S. 7th Cavalry killed hundreds of Lakota Sioux in 1890 at Wounded Knee, South Dakota, with impunity; and of course the largest mass execution in the United States – 38 Dakota were hanged in Mankato, Minnesota in 1862, ordered by then-President Abraham Lincoln only one month before he signed the Emancipation Proclamation.
