An incredible and inspiring life and book. Learned so much from @gloriasteinem 's memoir, especially about Native Americans. Among things I didn't know was that the U.S Constitution was modeled after the Iroquois Confederacy and that scalping was started by the U.S Army. "At less than 1 percent of the population - at least, by the notorious undercount of the U.S. Census - the more than five hundred tribes and nations made up the smallest, poorest, and least formally educated group in the United States. Nations were very diverse, varying in size from the vast Navajo Nation that extended into several states to reservations of less than twenty acres. But across that diversity, they shared common struggles as dealing with a federal government that had to honor one treaty in its entirety, gaining control of the schooling and treatment of their own children, protecting their land from exploitation for oil, uranium, and other resources on it - and much more. For instance, women on reservations suffered the highest rate of sexual assault in the country, yet the non-Native men who were the majority of their assaulters were not subject to tribal police or jurisdiction, and were mostly ignored by the larger legal system. ...I learned about the generations of Indian families who had been forced by law to send their children to Christian boarding schools often funded by tax dollars; never mind the separation of church and state. The nineteenth-century founder of those schools coined the motto "Kill the Indian, save the man." They deprived children of their families, names, language, culture, and even their long hair. Then they were taught a history that measured progress by their defeat.

Saddest of all, two centuries of child abuse in Indian boarding schools had sometimes normalized punitive child rearing and sexualized violence within Indian families. Childhood patterns are repeated because they are what we know. Even when the schools were humane, teaching Native languages and practicing Native religion was illegal, something that continued until the 1970s."
