Gotta admit that I'm a sucker for time pieces, especially involving war campaigns, and this trailer really sucked me in. Definitely going to see it when it comes out:

Adding in Robert De Niro didn't hurt. Being based on a true story and the story it tells is just as appealing to me as any other factor. The treatment of the Indigenous tribes in this country has always been a topic I valued that caused not only sadness but outrage on my part. There are so many such stories which most have not been told or buried. My wife and I are going to see it too.

My son is adopted from Guatemala and is mostly Indigenous Maya. The Maya, Aztecs and Incas have been treated brutally. Just outrageous abuses against Native Americans in the North/South/Central America.
Side note - I saw his burial tomb in Paris five years ago. He’s in there with others from his lineage. I also learned on that trip that he was buried without his “member.” Apparently that was removed and given to someone. Now some urologist in the US has it…

You understand more than 98% of "America Online." Born & bred Americans need to listen to you, Mom. They could learn a thing or two.
Stating this as a lifelong sk8termom fan, Clemdawg.
I spent about six months in Guatemala back in 1977. It is a beautiful country. I lived out of a backpack and tent. Traveled all over Guatemala. The native women are all taught how to weave on a backstrap loom. They make their own clothes. Every village has a unique motif. The women wear what is called a huipil (blouse), a faja (belt/sash), and the corte (skirt). In certain communities, the color and size of the faja can signify if a woman is married or single.
On market days people come from all over to sell wares, fruits, vegetables, and anything else that might sell. You can tell where in Guatemala each person is from by the clothes they wear. It is a beautiful display of woven colors and figures.
There is an undercurrent of tension between the indigenous people and the Latino Guatemalans. The Latinos look down on the natives. They are treated brutally. Not unlike how native Americans have been treated here. It is sad. Those people are just trying to survive. For the most part the natives live off the land. Yet they are displaced in their own country.
You did a wonderful thing to give your son a chance at a better life.

Let's be honest here. She doesn't understand more, she cares more.
On can understand but not care.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
So you think that most of the honest story of the history concerning the atrocities committed against Native Americans throughout history is taught in our schools? The only people who know the truth are those who have sought it out. Otherwise they will never know the entire story. Even then a lot of it is hard to find. Are you saying without Killers of the Flower Moon coming out and getting media coverage the average American knew the story of the Osage people and what happened to them over oil?
No, they didn't. And there are dozens of stories just like that they have never heard.
And if some people have their way even more of America's actual and honest history will be hidden from our children.

Thank you for your kindness Clemdawg. I think you folks are right. Many people know more about the history of Native Americans. I just happen to care a lot about the atrocities committed against all of the Native American people.
