ATomorrow is “Thanksgiving Day” in the good ole' U.S.A., and I for one, will be sitting this holiday out, for there is no valid reason to “celebrate”. It is a time of mourning for many. This video, is yet another to recently surface, chock full of the harsh, cold fundamental realities U.S. Education has hidden from its children about U.S. History 101… for centuries. The narrator paints a pithy portrait of how the narrative we were taught from our earliest days in public schools compare to the coarse realities at the founding of the colonies… which always brings me back to Robert J. Fischer.
In the past, when Bobby Fischer was quoted from 2005 as saying “… That country, the United States, belongs to the red man, the American Indian …” he was mocked, scorned, ridiculed by the press (just as they had always done). It were as though what he spoke were untrue or the product of an unhinged mind. Bobby was and still is CORRECT and the sordid efforts to refute the chess genius crumble, lie by miserable lie. Bobby Fischer's criticism was VALID! TIMELY! ahead of its time. It is however, time to consider the sources of such unfounded accusations and baseless ridicule!
“Bobby always had mixed feelings about the way Native Americans were unjustly stripped of their land and culture. Charity work in favor of native Americans is something Bobby would support.” — A.E.L.
“… That country, the United States, belongs to the red man, the American Indian …” — Bobby Fischer, 2005
(Indigenous people dwelling on what is now called the “American Continents” would have shared the land, but White settlers would not and took without asking. Every treaty ever made, has been violated https://www.history.com/news/native-american-broken-treaties.)

Tell members of U.S. www.Congress.gov “Bobby Fischer Day” deserves official recognition as a national and international celebration of public chess tournaments, t-shirts, memorabilia, prizes, family fun and festivities hosted in cities around the U.S., and the world.
