The roads from Alaska(north america) to south america before 1450, was a highway with high level communities. In EurAzie after that colonization war 2(ww2) on the EurAzie grounds, before that EurAzie had no high level roads. That is around 500 years later! The singularity and abundance already exists. Check the video in the article, 25 minute long. I am going to buy this book from author and professor Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, the false narrative of Columbus discovering the Americas still pervades history books and the Eurocentric mindset of the United States. Learn the true history of what author and professor Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz calls the legacy of Columbus voyages: the annihilation and conquest of Native Americans. Quote In her new book An Indigenous Peoples History of the United States, longtime author-activist Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz corrects the record: The precolonial continent wasnt untamed, uncultivated: There was a road from Alaska down to southern Mexico; roads that [went] from east to west, north to south . . . Not paths . . . not roads just for hunting paths or migrations. These were trade routes, reports Dunbar-Ortiz. They had stops; they had places to stay . . . And trade items from central Mexico ended up in what is now Quebec and the Great Lakes area and vice versa. Before colonial capitalism, there existed what she calls indigenous socialism. The destruction of that economy through war, denial of self-determination, dispossession, criminalization and violence against women affected no group more than indigenous people, but they werent the only ones. Colonialism, she argues, served as an escape valve for the mother country. Peasants thrown off their lands with the enclosure of the commons were assuaged with an offer of land where they could be lord, she says. But poor settlers too were duped. Corporations are predators to everyone now, she said.
