0:54Now PlayingPresident Joe #Biden apologized for the federal government’s role in running a system of #Indian boarding schools that separated #NativeAmerican children from their families and wreaked havoc on tribal communities.
“It’s a sin on our soul,” Biden said Friday at the Gila River Indian Community in #Arizona calling his formal #apology “long overdue” and making a call to “rewrite the history book correctly” while paying tribute to an under-served community.
“We do not erase history. We make history. We learn from history,” he said. “For too long, this all happened with virtually no public attention,” and the transgressions continued even after passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which got him engaged in politics, Biden said.
