PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSITY FOUND GUILTY OF 'GENOCIDE' AGAINST NATIVE AMERICANS, DEMANDS MAJOR REPARATIONS

The University of Minnesota engaged in the systematic oppression and mistreatment of local tribes for financial gain.
A report recommended the university hire more Native faculty, offer Native students more financial support, and return tribal lands.
This report is the first time a major US university critically examined its history with Native people.
While the university has taken some steps to remedy its past, more substantial actions like expanding scholarships are still needed.
The university used its founding board to steal tribal lands and resources, effectively functioning as a shell company to launder stolen goods.
