Summary

Out of every race on Earth no one has had it as hard as The Native Americans. They received maybe the worst genocide this world has ever seen, yet they still have resolve, honor, and respect. Let's examine what has happened to these people. They have been through so much we could not unpack it all in one episode, in PT 1 we talk their plight when the Spanish Inquisition came to America, how to talk to someone who descends from that culture, and what it's like now for Native Americans. Joining Amber and Ed is Lakota Sioux comedian Jana Schmieding. Also taking us out this week is a song from Mel Brooks' History of the World Part 1. "The Spanish Inquisition"
