A TRIBE CALLED RED, Sagepatch Kid, Snotty Nose Rez kids, Teepee Talk. California governor apologizes to Native Americans: "California Gov. Gavin Newsom has apologized to Native Americans for the violence, maltreatment and neglect". Native Americans in that state have suffered, adding that it's time for California to reckon with its history.
"It is called a genocide. That's what it was," he said of the violence, Tuesday. "No other way to describe it and that's the way it needs to be described in the history books".
"And so I'm here to say the following: I'm sorry on behalf of the state of California," he continued.
Speaking to over 100 tribal leaders, Newsom also announced the creation of a "Truth and Healing Council," which will be tasked with providing Native American narratives for inclusion in existing documentation and records in an effort to "clarify the historical record" of the relationship between California and the states' Native American tribes.
Also, Snotty Nose Rez Kids, Canadian First Nations hip hop duo composed of Haisla rappers Darren "Young D" Metz and Quinton "Yung Trybez" Nyce. They are originally from Kitamaat Village, British Columbia, and currently based in Vancouver.
