"Even though Biden appeared be apologizing and disavowing the boarding “school” agenda of assimilation, he was simultaneously using subtle word choices that maintain and advance that agenda in real time."

Yes... your post helps people see through the surface rhetoric, the smoke and mirrors....

When you say in concluding "It is likely that U.S. government officials never dreamed that those of us who are the descendants of boarding school survivors would one day uncover the existence of the U.S. system and code of domination through an intensive investigation of what has happened to our nations and peoples over the centuries."

I just want to say that the only way I discovered your work is because as if a whisperer I kept hearing the word Domination and Domineering in my ear being repeated so many times. I didn't know where it was coming from...only thing is that is how I felt every day of my life being raised by my adopted white Euro-American Christian parents all my life here in Connecticut after I was stolen from my homeland of origins of so-called present day Colombia, South America. Then somehow I looked up the words and found your work. Still to this say I thank you so much for giving me a subtext for the whispers I kept getting and the frustration and anger I was feeling and now continue to work in healing every moment of every day it seems. Thank you!

Keep at it, Steve! Even if the likes of sleepy Joe don't wake up, enough people waking up to the facts you clearly convey can help get to that 'place' where hardly anyone listens to the lip service and more media report the deeper, horrific-sad and needing to be faced, truths.
