Learned something this week that I should have learned a long time ago: On June 2, 1924 Calvin Coolidge signed into law the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, which granted U.S. citizenship to Native Americans. Are you kidding me? This country belongs to the Native Americans, and nobody had to sign a law granting citizenship to anyone except the white man that stole the country from the Native Americans.
Maybe June 2 should have been Coolidge’s last stand.
