Universities Confront Demands for Reparations From Native American Communities

Native American tribes are calling on universities across the country to provide reparations for land taken from them generations ago.
Some universities like Cornell and Wisconsin-Madison are taking steps to acknowledge and address the harm done to Native tribes.
The University of Minnesota is facing pressure to make amends for acquiring tribal lands for a fraction of their worth over a century ago.
Advocates argue universities have not done enough and real change is needed, though reparations for Natives and Black Americans would differ.
A reckoning began with a report on how the Morrill Act allowed universities like Cornell to gain tribal lands, prompting research and relationship-building.
