It's only bad if done by white Americans.

Slavery elsewhere in the world--not important.

The "Trail of Tears" was a crime which killed thousands (under the auspices of Democratic Presidents Andrew Jackson and Martin van Buren). Stalin killed vastly more people with his evictions of certain ethnic groups during WWII--but no one hears about those crimes...carried out with much more cruelty than in the evictions of the Southeastern Indians. (Robert Gellately covers these evictions and much else in his recent book Stalin's Curse.)

"Apparently they have signatures by Thomas Walker to compare which is why they are saying it is the same man."

I wonder how much more effort it would take to find his birth certificate?
