-The-Great-California-Genocide
Above is a link to a timely article in the Daily Kos about the genocide of Native Americans in California. The issue is timely as the Vatican considers sainthood for one of the architects of that genocide. That doesn't seem like a great resume for sainthood, but then I don't belong to the Catholic Church. The Genocide of indigenous populations of California is one of those indelible stains in American history. It has left a legacy that continues on today as the instruments of government and large portions of the people of California still seek to marginalize the surviving descendants of this American holocaust.
