7. So many massacres, so many names, not all known, a few mentioned in passing

From New England to Sand Creek, Colorado to California's shores, the colorless people have proved the immorality of supremacy.

This evil of colorlessness is widespread.

In Uruguay, in 1831, the now extinct Charrúa were massacred by the Uruguayan Army on the banks of the Salsipuedes* Creek *Spanish for "Get-out-if-you-can"

Those who could were later killed or taken into slavery.
