Good information COLLETTE. Indigenous people also have the highest rate of suicide and alcoholism. They can't buy or sell their property on the reservation as this is held in trust by the gov. They can't get a loan as they do not have collateral in the way of land to put up and if the bank can't take the home then it has no monetary value per se. Up into the early 70's many thousands of indigenous women were given hysterectomies often when they were in for appendectomies or if they had "female" problems then that was the solution. This was ok'd by the gov. of both Canada and the U.S.
Children were taken from homes and placed in residential schools where they were often beaten, sexually assaulted, forbidden to dance, sing or speak their own language, and taught that it was shameful to be "Indian". All were forbidden to do ceremonial dances and prayers up to today.
