Modern? This shit has been running unabated for the last hundred years. FDR mistakenly font Nazis were people you could make deals with. And rather than try, then hang them. Offered them freedom and no consequences as long as they voted for his legislation. Which they immediately turned around and have spent the last 100 years dismantling. It’s a very serious problem that has a country we’ve just pretended didn’t exist for forever.
As someone on tribal rolls that’s lucky enough not to live on reservations. I can say you aren’t wrong. Though my point in using them was that they are directly tied to the fascists. The ones aiming to kill FDR were Hitler sympathizers etc. So a bit more directly connected to the Nazis / fascists.
Ottowae on one side recent enough, that my grandmother went to one of those white washing ”Indian schools”. Wyandotte a bit further back on the other side with a bit more Ottawae. Which is pretty common considering after the death march, those that survived ended up in kansas/oklahoma.
One of my grandmother’s, who survived wounded knee as a toddler, told my cousin that as long as he knows the blood they share, even if they say it’s only 1% then they are Lakota like her.
Oh absolutely. As do the tribes. Despite not being the most visually recognizable descendants. Even my father at this point simply due to the way genetics works doesn’t have the markers that a lot of the DNA tests used to identify native populations. But blood is blood, and we can trace our lineage right back to past tribal leaders even.

Lakota myself. True to my heritage, I too am scattered from ones own. or as my cousin calls it a city native
