Happy New Year. Here's a short story to follow at the start of the year.
Representative Dan Boren (D-Oklahoma) has introduced a resolution (H.J. Res. 68) to "acknowledge a long history of official depredations and ill-conceived policies by the United States Government regarding Indian tribes and offer an apology to all Native peoples on behalf of the United States."
While the sentiment is wonderful and timely, one has to wonder if this will actually amount to a policy change or whether it will be yet another empty piece of paper signed by Congress that has no or an ill-effect on Indian people.
