Aaron Huey's effort to photograph poverty in America led him to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where the struggle of the native Lakota people -- appalling, and largely ignored -- compelled him to refocus. Five years of work later, his haunting photos intertwine with a shocking history lesson in this bold, courageous talk from TEDxDU.

American Holocaust of Native American Indians (FULL Documentary)

 

Uploaded on Nov 5, 2011

The powerful and hard-hitting documentary, American Holocaust, is quite
possibly the only film that reveals the link between the Nazi holocaust,
which claimed at least 6 million Jews, and the American Holocaust which
claimed, according to conservative estimates, 19 million Indigenous
People.

It is seldom noted anywhere in fact, be it in textbooks
or on the internet, that Hitler studied Americas Indian policy, and used
it as a model for what he termed the final solution.

He wasn't the only one either. Its not explicitly mentioned in the film, but its
well known that members of the National Party government in South Africa
studied the American approach before they introduced the system of
racial apartheid, which lasted from 1948 to 1994. Other fascist regimes,
for instance, in South and Central America, studied the same policy.

Noted even less frequently, Canadas Aboriginal policy was also closely
examined for its psychological properties. America always took the more
wide-open approach, for example, by decimating the Buffalo to get rid of
a primary food source, by introducing pox blankets, and by giving $1
rewards to settlers in return for scalps of Indigenous Men, women, and
children, among many, many other horrendous acts. Canada, on the other
hand, was more bureaucratic about it. They used what I like to call the
gentlemans touch, because instead of extinguishment, Canada sought to
remove the Indian from the Man and the Women and the Child, through a
long-term, and very specific program of internal breakdown and
replacement call it assimilation. America had its own assimilation
program, but Canada was far more technical about it.

Perhaps these points would have been more closely examined in American Holocaust
if the film had been completed. The films director, Joanelle Romero,
says shes been turned down from all sources of funding since she began
putting it together in 1995.

Perhaps its just not good business to invest in something that tells so much truth? In any event, Romero produced a shortened, 29-minute version of the film in 2001, with the
hope of encouraging new funders so she could complete American
Holocaust. Eight years on, Romero is still looking for funds.

American Holocaust may never become the 90-minute documentary Romero hoped to
create, to help expose the most substantial act of genocide that the world has ever seen one that continues even as you read these words.
