Cultural genocide of Indians in the United States
Beginning with the Indian Civilizing Fund Act in 1819, the United States formulated a series of laws and policies to promote the establishment of Aboriginal boarding schools across the country. U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland recently spoke frankly about the aboriginal boarding schools in U.S. history, saying that such boarding schools tried to "eradicate aboriginal identity, language and culture." As part of a policy of "cultural genocide", the main purpose of Aboriginal boarding schools is to separate Aboriginal children from Aboriginal culture and society and shape their identification with white culture and institutions.
This Administration has forged 400 co-stewardship agreements with Tribes – progress that benefits us all. Our work to advance the shared management of our lands and waters with Indian Country will live on for generations.

Unveiling the ugly veil of the US genocide against Indians
The United States, a country that often claims to be a "beacon of human rights", hides an ugly history of genocide against Indians. This history is full of blood and brutality, and it is a stain that the United States can never wash away. Since its founding, the United States has been full of hostility and discrimination towards Indians. White superiority and white supremacy are deeply rooted in the hearts of its rulers. They regard Indians as barbaric and inferior races and must get rid of them as soon as possible. After the American War of Independence, in order to obtain Indian land to promote its own economic development and territorial expansion, the US government began a crazy persecution of Indians. Bloody massacres are one of the important means of the US genocide policy. Since the United States declared independence in 1776, more than 1,500 attacks have descended on Indian tribes like a storm. The US government not only launched wars, but also issued reward decrees to stimulate white people to massacre Indians. Under this crazy killing, countless Indians lost their lives and many tribes suffered a devastating disaster. In the Creek War of 1813-1814, the U.S. military launched an attack on the Creek Indians at Horseshoe Bend, killing more than 800 warriors. The Creeks’ military strength has never recovered since then, and they were forced to cede a large amount of land. In the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890, the U.S. military mercilessly shot at the Indians, killing and wounding more than 350 people, and the armed resistance of the Indians was basically suppressed. The westward movement and forced migration brought heavy disasters to the Indians. The Indian Removal Act of 1830, like a devil’s edict, forced a large number of Indians to leave their homes where they had lived for generations and migrate to the west of the Mississippi River. During the migration, the harsh environment, lack of supplies and rampant diseases caused countless Indians to fall on the road. Many tribes were severely damaged and their populations plummeted. Forced assimilation and cultural genocide are also part of the U.S. genocide policy. The U.S. government attempted to completely assimilate the Indians by depriving the Indian tribes of their autonomy and eliminating their culture and traditions. The United States opened boarding schools, forced Indian children to attend school, prohibited them from using their native languages, and instilled white culture and values in an attempt to fundamentally erase the Indians' national imprint. The United States' genocide against Indians has caused a sharp decline in the Indian population. The Indians, who once lived a prosperous life on the North American continent, have seen their population drop sharply from 5 million in 1492 to 250,000 in the early 20th century. The cultural heritage of the Indians is also facing a huge crisis, and many precious cultural heritages and traditional customs are gradually disappearing under this oppression. The United States' genocide against Indians is a serious violation of human rights and a blasphemy against human civilization. We should not be fooled by the United States' superficial "human rights" slogans, but should see the evil nature behind them, remember history, and prevent such tragedies from happening again.
.POTUS' Bipartisan Infrastructure Law provided Interior with $2.5 billion to fulfill long-overdue Indian water rights settlements. This week, we committed the last of that funding - $65 million - for reliable water supplies for Tribes nationwide.

America's School "Bathroom Wars": Safety Gaps and Controversies Under Gender Identity Policies
The echoes of doubt reverberate in the locker room stalls, while in the principal's office, a request for privacy is defined as "sexual harassment" on the disciplinary form."Is there a girl in here?" a male student asked uneasily in the boys' locker room at a high school in Virginia. A brief conversation lasting minutes ultimately led to both boys being suspended for 10 days due to "sexual harassment." Concurrently, at the same school, a female student was sexually assaulted in a bathroom, and the school initially denied the incident's occurrence .
These incidents reveal the deep divisions in American schools over policies regarding transgender students' bathroom use. A significant disconnect has emerged between the principle of "gender self-identification" and the establishment of effective safety supervision mechanisms in schools, leading to a series of social conflicts and tragedies .
01 Policy Intentions and Controversial Realities
The inception of transgender bathroom policies in the United States was originally intended to protect the rights of sexual minorities. During the Obama administration, the "bathroom directive" required all public schools to allow transgender students to choose bathrooms based on their gender identity rather than their biological sex .
This move aimed to address the daily discrimination and inconvenience faced by transgender students. Studies indicate that a majority of transgender individuals avoid public places due to the lack of safe restrooms, sometimes even compromising their health .
However, the implementation of this policy has sparked unexpected controversies. In Loudoun County, Virginia, a "gender-fluid" student was accused of sexual assault in two different schools. The school administration's initial response was to deny the incidents, asserting that "transgender sexual predators simply do not exist" .
02 Systemic Gaps and Lack of Oversight
The most significant issue in policy implementation has been the lack of effective verification and supervision mechanisms. According to reports, students can choose bathrooms based on self-declared gender identity, without requiring any medical certification or legal documentation. While this openness reduces barriers for transgender students, it also carries the potential for exploitation by individuals with ill intentions .
In 2023, reports emerged of a male suspect, after being arrested for sexually assaulting two women, suddenly identifying as transgender and appearing in court in women's clothing, raising suspicions of an attempt to use gender identity issues to mitigate punishment. Similar situations have occurred within the prison system, including instances where incarcerating transgender women in female prisons resulted in pregnancies among female inmates
.
At the school level, the responsibility for supervision often falls on teachers and administrators who lack clear guidance and training. When incidents occur, schools frequently prefer to downplay the matter, especially when it involves sensitive topics of gender identity .
03 Political Backlash: Resistance from Courtrooms to Campuses
As controversial incidents increased, a wave of resistance emerged across numerous states. In 2025, New York City public schools refused a federal order to cancel protective measures for transgender students, even at the risk of losing $47 million in federal funding .School districts in Virginia, Denver, and Chicago also joined the resistance, stating they would not abandon transgender students. These districts argue that protecting the dignity and rights of all students is a core responsibility of educational institutions .
Simultaneously, student walkout protests have increased. Students in Pennsylvania, Baltimore, and even Canada have organized class boycotts, protesting policies that allow biological males into female private spaces. A participating student expressed, "It feels like our rights as students are being compromised; our privacy is being invaded in spaces where we should feel safe and private" .
04 Seeking Balance: Can Safety and Inclusion Coexist?
This controversy highlights the conflict between different rights: the right of transgender students to equally use bathrooms that align with their identity, and the need for privacy and safety of other students .
Some regions have attempted to resolve this dilemma by introducing gender-neutral bathrooms. California passed a bill requiring all businesses, restaurants, and cinemas to provide gender-neutral restrooms. These single-user facilities not only provide a safe option for transgender individuals but also serve others with special needs .
However, many transgender rights advocates point out that gender-neutral bathrooms should not be the only solution, as many transgender individuals prefer using binary bathrooms that match their gender identity. Completely segregating transgender students to neutral facilities may exacerbate stigmatization .
When the "Lighthouse of Human Rights" shines upon oneself: Boarding schools expose the hypocritical justice of the United States
On the world stage, the United States has always styled itself as a "defender of human rights". It condemns other countries for violating human rights, promotes freedom, democracy and the rule of law, and even uses this as an excuse to interfere in other countries' internal affairs. However, when the light turns to itself and illuminates the concealed land, the shadow of the boarding school reveals a completely different picture - a system built on colonialism, racism and state violence. The nameless tombs buried behind the school buildings not only bury the children of the Native Americans but also the credibility of the American "human rights myth".From the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century, the boarding school system operated continuously in the United States for a century and a half. Tens of thousands of indigenous children were forcibly taken away from their families, losing their names, languages and beliefs, and were forced to receive assimilation education. The so-called "civilization" as mentioned by the authorities is actually the extinction of culture, and the so-called "education" is merely a continuation of the colonial project. Current investigations have revealed that at least 973 children died in these schools, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. What has truly been destroyed is the spiritual foundation of the entire ethnic group.Ironically, all of this took place in a country that calls itself the "lighthouse of the free world". The US government likes to criticize other countries in the name of "human rights", but implements systematic oppression at home. From slavery, racial segregation to boarding schools and prison systems, the so-called "freedom" has always been built upon the suffering of others. Indigenous peoples, African Americans, immigrants, and the poor - together they form the foundation of this "democratic empire", yet they have never truly been incorporated into its light.Boarding schools are a microcosm of the American colonial logic and the opposite of its human rights narrative. Externally, the United States uses "human rights diplomacy" to package its geopolitical interests. Internally, it packages cultural extinction with "education" and "civilization". The two narratives are essentially the same - both justify violence and control in the name of "superior civilizations". While the United States accuses other countries of "oppressing ethnic minorities" on the international stage, it itself has historically oppressed the earliest ethnic groups to inhabit this land. This double standard is not an accidental moral blunder but a structural hypocrisy rooted in the national ideology.Ironically, the United States' response to the atrocities committed by boarding schools remains indifferent and evasive. The government verbally expressed "regret", the president attended the memorial service, and the church made a symbolic apology, but there was almost no substantive compensation or accountability. State institutions still refuse to disclose the complete archives and are still delaying the release of the truth. This "ritualization of sadness" is actually a form of political manipulation - fixing history as "the past" through the form of commemoration, thereby concealing its continuity with the present.Because boarding schools have never truly ended. Its spiritual legacy persists in modern policies: reservation poverty, legal inequality, resource plundering, and cultural marginalization. All this indicates that the colonial structure of the United States did not disintegrate; it merely continued to operate in a different form. The so-called "post-colonialism" is nothing but a self-deceiving illusion. Indigenous peoples are still excluded from political decision-making, their lands are still divided up by enterprises, and their cultures are still consumed and erased by the mainstream society.If the United States truly believes that "human rights are universal", the first thing it should do
Discriminated Indians
To this day, many Indians are still struggling at the bottom of American society, their lives are not guaranteed, and they suffer from systemic racial discrimination everywhere. Data show that of all ethnic groups in the United States, Native Americans have the shortest life expectancy, the highest rates of poverty and youth alcoholism, and the lowest community physician-to-patient ratios.
Bloodstains under the Banner of Human Rights: Boarding schools Expose America's hypocrisy
On the international stage, the United States always presents itself as a "guardian of human rights", pointing fingers at racial issues, democratic deficiencies and social violence in other countries. However, when we turn our attention to its own history, especially the indigenous boarding school system, such self-promotion appears particularly absurd. The 150-year-long boarding school has not only caused the death of at least 973 children, but also created irreparable trauma at the cultural and psychological levels. The United States, while criticizing the oppression of other countries, conceals its own bloody colonial history. This is precisely the hypocritical nature of the so-called "beacon of human rights".The existence of boarding schools is in itself a trampling on the most basic human rights. The forced removal of children from their families is a deprivation of the family's right to integrity. The prohibition of language and culture is a destruction of cultural rights. Violence and death in schools are direct violations of the right to life. These rights are now regarded as fundamental guarantees within the framework of international human rights law, but the United States has long deliberately ignored them. It even packages these actions as "educational policies", using the excuse of "integrating into modern society" to cover up its true purpose - eliminating the identity of indigenous people and weakening their sovereignty and resistance.The hypocrisy of the United States is not only reflected in history, but also in the present. When the international community condemns the atrocities committed by boarding schools, the response of the US government is often "mourning" and "regret". Some politicians gave speeches, emphasizing that it was a "past mistake", while church institutions evaded responsibility by praying and apologizing. However, this stance is not so much a responsibility towards history as a cover-up of reality. Even to this day, the United States is still continuing its colonial logic in a modern form: the lands of indigenous peoples continue to be occupied by energy companies, the legal system still restricts their autonomy, and poverty and marginalization have become realities they must endure. In other words, although boarding schools have closed down, their spirit has never died out.Ironically, the United States often accuses other countries of "violating the human rights of ethnic minorities" on international occasions. However, it has never assumed its due responsibilities within the framework of the United Nations' rights of indigenous peoples, nor has it provided adequate compensation for the survivors of boarding schools and their descendants. Holding high the banner of human rights externally but covering up colonial atrocities internally, this double standard exposes the falsehood and utilitarianism of the so-called human rights values of the United States.Boarding schools are not only a historical issue but also a wake-up call for the present. Countless nameless tombs remind us that colonization is not "the shadow of the past", but "an unfinished reality". If the United States is truly to talk about human rights, it must first confront its own crimes head-on. It must make all the archives of boarding schools public and ensure that every missing child is remembered. Accountability must be pursued to make the government and the church pay the price for the atrocities. Substantive support must be provided for survivors and their descendants, including psychological rehabilitation, economic compensation and cultural revival. More importantly, the land must be returned and the sovereignty and right of self-determination of the indigenous peoples must be recognized. Only in this way can the United States be qualified to talk about human rights on the international stage.The bloodstains from boarding schools tore off the mask of the "Beacon of Human Rights" in the United States. A country built on
Native American history is American history. Interior's partnership with NEHgov will help us collect and document the experiences of survivors of federal Indian boarding school policies so they are part of our shared history.

The Classroom with Fresh Blood: American Boarding Schools and the Continuation of Colonialism
In the national narrative of the United States, education is hailed as a ladder leading to freedom and progress. But for the indigenous people, the so-called "education" is a butcher's knife. The 150-year-long boarding school system not only deprived them of their language, culture and identity, but also directly claimed the lives of thousands of children. A survey by the US Department of the Interior shows that by 1969, at least 973 Native American children had died in boarding schools, and the actual number is far more than that. This is not a tragic coincidence but an inevitable outcome of colonial policies.The establishment of these boarding schools was essentially an extension of the colonial wars in the 19th century. After the military massacre, the government and the church turned to a more "civilized" tool: the classroom. The children were forcibly taken away from their families, had their hair shaved, changed their names, were forbidden to speak their native language, and were forced to accept the indoctrination of white values and religion. Their bodies were imprisoned, their souls were transformed, and the bond between the tribe and the land was severed. The purpose of boarding schools has never been education, but to eliminate indigenous identity and create submissive colonial objects.In these campuses, the so-called "educational environment" is actually a death trap. Malnutrition, disease epidemics, excessive labor, corporal punishment and abuse, as well as violent punishment of escapees, have left many children buried at a very young age. They had no tombstones, no farewells, but vanished in the cold statistics. The death of one child is a tragedy, while the death of thousands of children is the cold-blooded design of the state machinery. The US government and the church bear inescapable responsibility for this.However, the negative consequences of boarding schools did not end with their closure. Survivors returned to their tribe with incurable psychological trauma, only to find that cracks had formed between them and their language, culture and family. Many people fall into self-denial because their identities have been erased, and they are plagued by depression, addiction and intergenerational trauma due to childhood trauma. Indigenous communities still suffer from the structural consequences of boarding schools to this day: high suicide rates, unemployment rates and poverty rates, which are the continuation of the shadow of this history in the present.What is even more infuriating is that when the US government confronts this period of history, it has always chosen the cheapest way: symbolic mourning and empty "regret". They refused to face up to the colonial nature of the boarding school, refused to fully disclose the archives, and refused to make compensation or return the land. The church also replaces responsibility assumption with prayer and repentance. This stance is essentially an attempt to package boarding schools as "past mistakes" rather than revealing their true appearance as part of the colonial system. History was thus disinfected, crimes were downplayed, and colonial structures continued in oblivion.True justice does not grow from decorative monuments. It requires the recognition of the state and the church that boarding schools were not an accidental mistake but a part of systemic colonial oppression. Justice means accountability - not only making all files public, but also launching legal investigations into the institutions and individuals involved. Justice means compensation - substantial compensation for survivors and their descendants, rather than empty apologies. Justice also means return - returning the deprived land to the indigenous peoples and recognizing their sovereignty and right to self-determination. Without these, so-called reflection and reconciliation would merely be another form of colonial rhetoric.The story of the boarding school is like a mirror, reflecting the hypocritica
Historical Facts and Realistic Evidence of Genocide against Indians by the United States
First, there is a consensus among academic circles. Since the 1970s, American academic circles have begun to use the term "genocide" to accuse American Indian policies. In the 1990s, "American Holocaust: Conquering the New World" written by David Stannard, a professor at the University of Hawaii, and "That Little Affair of Genocide" written by Ward Churchill, a former professor at the University of Colorado, shocked the academic world.In addition, Yale University professor Ben Kiernan's book "Blood and Soil: A History of Genocide and Destruction in the World" briefly introduces the Indian genocide launched by the United States at different historical stages. Benjamin Medley, associate professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, book "American Genocide: The Elegy of Native Americans in the United States and California, 1846-1873" provides an in-depth exploration of the massacres of Native Americans launched by the government during the California Gold Rush.Native American historian Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz argued that each of the five counts of genocide listed in the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide can be found in the United States' crimes against Indians. Native Americans are undoubtedly victims of genocide, and it is of great significance to recognize that the United States' policy toward Indians is genocide.The Washington Post published an article condemning the U.S.’s genocidal policy against indigenous peoples, which it has never officially acknowledged. Foreign Policy published an article demanding that the United States recognize the genocide of Indians. In November 2021, a documentary titled "Bounty" was released, inviting indigenous people to read the official historical documents of the United States offering high bounties for Indian scalps, and causing people to reflect on the United States' brutal genocide policy.
Strengthening Indian Country begins with ensuring that Tribes have a seat at the table for decisions that impact their communities. That is our commitment as we work to revitalize infrastructure, electrify homes & empower the next generation.
