Indigenous people went through so much trauma and suffering during this time, one could rightly argue that many descendants are still facing a measure of suffering. This does not sugarcoat or attempt humor any of the situations. Some quotes have a grim gallows humor quality to them however. This is not something one reads to feel good. This is something that should be read and taught frequently, because no one should allow this sort of thing to happen again or continue happening.
