American Indian Holocaust

The video begins with a list of 10 references (books) that seek to document there was an intentional genocide of the American Indian that reduced the Indian population from 5 to 12 million when the first Europeans arrived to 250,000 four hundred years later in 1900. Then I concentrate on the wars in the Great Plains from the assault on an Indian Village on the Washita river in Kansas in 1868 to the massacre at Wounded Knee in South Dakota in 1890. These wars were ordered by President Grant when he put General Willian Tecumcseh Sherman and General Phil Sheridan in command. Sherman had declared himself insane during the Civil War and he was sent back to Ohio to recuperate and General Sheridan was the man who said: "The only good Indian is a dead Indian." A madman and a arch racist were in charge of the extermination of the American Indians.
