We Have Socialism In the US and It Sucks

July 21, 2022

The US government has a horrible track record of abuse and injustice when it comes to the treatment of American Indians, and that abuse continues today. Although it is no longer wholesale slaughter, enslavement, or forced integration, bigger and more intrusive government in the everyday affairs of American Indians continues to harm their well-being and stifles their ability to flourish.

We're taking a deeper look at the full-blown socialism wrecking Indian Reservations in the United States on this feature episode of Out of Frame.
