Resistance Radio with John Kane 11/16/23; Native people are still treated as incompetent wards of the state.

If you were appalled by the racism displayed in Killers of the Flower Moon, you must understand that it still continues today.

That designation continues today with the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 10/19/23; Killers of theFlower Moon opens this weekend but don’t think the racism and theft ended in the 1920s

The murder of the Osage is an unprecedented massive conspiracy of murder, marriage and theft. No where in the history of US criminal activity has this level of premeditation occurred. But the theft continues as other means have been employed by the powerful and greedy.
