Umm, you didn't originate here. No humans did. The first people in the americas are of south pacific, east Asian and Siberia. DNA testing has confirmed this as well of records of great migrations from Asia and Siberia in which most of the first people date back to.
Furthermore, there wasnt one civilization or nation here, there were many but very sparse, in other words, not enough to rightfully claim all the land. It was very tribal and nomadic, most archeology has shown us areas would become desolate and a tribe would move.
We also know there was slavery and genocide and massacres and wars and pandemic well before europeans showed up.
Again, certain tribes claimed the land they were on. Many Europeans traded land and made treaties for land. Typically the wars being fought against natives early on was an alliance of Europeans and natives, fighting another tribe.
So point is, land was acquired by either treaty or war, centuries ago and much land was not claimed. There was no unity among tribes as they were a warrior society. War was the way of things.
So to claim your land was stolen is just playing some victim card.
Then when it comes to Palestine, Israel has had no problem with them living there but Radicals cannot accept that. Some Palestinians are indigenous to those lands though, as are some Israelis. This is a very old and diverse region where civilization originated.
They both have rights in those lands which date back before your people ever migrated to North America.
So stop trying to lay claim to something that was never yours and you have no right to claim. Your land is what you buy, that is how the world works. In North America, the freedom is greater then anywhere. In Canada, the first peoples (first nations) are treated better then any citizen anywhere in the world, yet many still play the victim card like you while they ignoring just how much they have compared to anyone who isnt first nations.
Point is, a couple hundred years or a couple thousand years, both people have equal rights and the recognized state is who has claim.
Im not trying to be rude here either as my mother's side is First Nations Algonquin. Absolutely no disrespect, just hate when someone tries to deceive people.
Fyi. Turtle Island actually originated in a Dutch journal from like sometime in the 1600's as a story from Algonquin and Iroquois beliefs. Ones that were not shared or even known by the rest of the continent until the 1900's and was like 1970's when suddenly natives everywhere had accepted this cultural heritage.
So you may know the stories of it but trying to claim it as heritage is ridiculous. Also, learn the difference between colonization and settling.
If there was empty, unclaimed land, land won in a war or land received through treaty/trade, it is being settled, not colonized. Colonized applies to going into somewhere that is already settled. Vast majority of settlements developed where native tribes were not settled.
Europeans brought alot of good and native culture and nobility is high, especially in Canada. Everyone benefited. Nobody took your peoples land though. It was either bartered for or acquired through an alliance or treaty. If Europeans teamed up against a tribe with another tribe, well the other tribe was involved and that is war. You can't call that colonization or stealing land.
Have some appreciation and make something of yourself that can let you respect yourself because you should be ashamed of the deception you are spewing. I can feel the passion but you are either misinformed or ill informed or just plain uninformed.
Do more homework and learn your heritage instead of creating content such as this garbage.
For the Love of God, could you maybe tone down the virtue-signaling for even just for a moment?
You may see yourself as some kind of impeccably irreproachable high-minded social justice warrior;
fine. But someone should let you know what the rest of us outside your precious bubble see:
A naive, privileged, sanctimonious individual playing dress-up, and looking down on the rest of us --- who actually have real doubts as to your histrionic screaming about "genocide" and "de-colonization," and simply want to go about our own lives without being judged by a holier-than-thou finger-pointing cultural tourist who seems to think she is somehow more politically aware and evolved than we are.
Wearing you very own keffiyeh may seem to you like "an act of resistance and solidarity," but don't be surprised and don't complain when the rest of us roll our eyes, and smirk at your self-righteous cluelessness.
