Repatriations insult California’s native Americans
California has not yet acknowledged tribes that have applied for state and federal recognition. So reparations? Hahaha, I doubt it.
Many natives were charged with crimes such as consuming alcohol or consorting with a white woman. They were forced to work on white owned farms and ranches “until their handler felt they had served their punishment.” Often those terms really meant until they died. It gets even better. There are tribes like the Chumash that interface with the government far outside their tribal boundaries. They approve development on sensitive lands and confuse the issue of which tribe existed in a specific area.
