SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — President Donald Trump’s plans to kick off Independence Day with a showy display at Mount Rushmore have angered Native Americans, who view the monument as a desecration of land violently stolen from them and used to pay homage to leaders hostile to Indigenous people.

Several groups led by Native American activists are planning protests for Trump’s July 3 visit, part of Trump’s “comeback” campaign for a nation reeling from sickness, unemployment and, recently, social unrest. The event is slated to include fighter jets thundering over the 79-year-old stone monument in South Dakota’s Black Hills and the first fireworks display at the site since 2009.

But it comes amid a national reckoning over racism and a reconsideration of the symbolism of monuments around the globe. Many Native American activists say the Rushmore memorial is as reprehensible as the many Confederate monuments being toppled around the nation.

Mount Rushmore is a symbol of white supremacy, of structural racism that’s still alive and well in society today,” said Nick Tilsen, a member of the Oglala Lakota tribe and the president of a local activist organization called NDN Collective. “It’s an injustice to actively steal Indigenous people’s land, then carve the white faces of the conquerors who committed genocide.”

While some activists, like Tilsen, want to see the monument removed and the Black Hills returned to the Lakota, others have called for a share in the economic benefits from the region.

Fuck those Indians they don’t shut up they will get massacred again.Bunch of fucking drunk assholes.

I'm getting more and more conviced 90% of reported news in the US is fake.

It's overwhelmingly evident online in comments that Americans think this is all batshit crazy.

This tells me the media are putting out content catering to those they can trigger in order to sell ad space. In this case, they pick one guy who has probably said this all his life but only now post his comment to trigger people.

You probably only have 100k wound up lefties controlling 330M people. The media acting like twonks make.it appear as there are 100M wound up lefties.

Both have the same amount of grey matter (note to Trumptards - "grey matter" means "brains")

Which one is real?

I am sick of their bullshit already.

They may be even more nausea inducing than the dindus.

Take it up with the spirits down at the sacred burial ground, windtalkers. They lost. When you lose a war, your descendants are worse off than if you win, provided they are permitted to exist. Even when your enemy is the most benevolent victor in the history of the world.

Still, sorry about the whole civilization thing.

White people need to learn this as the libtard whites are going to end up handing everything over to our inferiors.
