So many problems with this but it’s not an issue of intent at all
We all want to help and create an equal fair environment for everyone. We all want and should help those around us but hiding behind a issue as big as a “systemic national problem” is more cause of in-action or action that does nothing for others.

One problem is saying that the Mormons were left alone in Utah… not even remotely true. The state/ territory was constantly occupied and regulated.

If portions of the same group are able to find success and others cannot it objectively isn’t systemic

Individuals are punished or must recompense for their own wrongs, not the wrongs of others. Anything beyond this completely unjust.

This leads to two impossible questions… how could one provide reciprocity for the terrible things done to groups of individuals spoken of?

Then, at what point is it “paid” and even?

The answer is Nothing could ever be done and never could it be done long enough to provide an even “score” as it were

This is all ignoring the true fact that all individuals that are descendants spoken of now live in an country where freedoms and opportunity are greater than ever in the history of the world… that is an immeasurable blessing

Speak to my friends who are immigrants from Peru, Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica and Haiti (I live in south Florida) talking to them about systemic problems in America will cause them to laugh out loud… problems in America exist but they are a walk in the park…

They say “here it it up to you, there you have no chance”

I believe pointing fingers as systemic problems allows people to put blame on others to take action. I say take action your self, creating “awareness” is probably the biggest fraud for helping others in this decade… who gives a crap about awareness… action is what matters… action NOT forcing others to change but causing change for the better in yourself and your family
