The Natives are Restless

You know, we are lucky all of us that want to keep the pressure on China to be nicer to the Tibetans, that the Chinese authorities haven't even thought of conducting an information counter-campaign on the fates of America's Indian tribes. If the tables were turned and they were like us and we were like them, the Chinese television would be filled with movies and documentaries about the Trail of Tears, the cultural and literal genocides of countless native American tribes, the current state of Indian Reservations, and the fact that Native Americans are currently the poorest identifiable ethnic group in America. Just goes to show, they have a long way to go before being called a superpower.
