The University of Minnesota is guilty of “genocide” of Native Americans and should atone for it with reparations forever and the return of land.
The “Towards Recognition and University Tribal-Healing Project,” shortened to “TRUTH Project,” released a 215-page report that accused the Big Ten university of “persistent, systemic mistreatment of Indigenous peoples.”
The university told The College Fix via email that it is committed to “rebuilding and strengthening relationships with Tribal Nations and Native Peoples,” in response to the release of the report. It did not elaborate any further on the report’s findings.
“The Founding Board of Regents committed genocide and ethnic cleansing of Indigenous peoples for financial gain, using the institution as a shell corporation through which to launder lands and resources,” the report alleged.
This term could be one source of discussion in future physics or mathematics classes, as the report suggested that every single degree program across the university system should incorporate “Indigenous curriculum requirements.”
Shannon Geshick, executive director of the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council which sponsored the report, did not respond to multiple requests for comment from The Fix.
