On this day, 27 November 1868, a detachment of US troops under the command of General Custer ignored orders to kill only warriors and massacred 103 sleeping Cheyenne in the so-called “Battle of the Washita”. Just one of many atrocities carried out against Native Americans during the colonisation of the Americas.
This is an excellent online book on the treatment of Native American by the colonists: https://libcom.org/library/bury-my-heart-wounded-knee-indian-history-american-west-dee-brown https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1276337409218073/?type=3
