Lol some of these comments are completely ignoring the reality of why it was phrased this way. Its a textbook for school children probably below the age of 10. Do you really expect middle school public education teachers to explain genocide and ethnic clensing to eight year olds? They slowly introduce the truth come highschool when kids are older because its horrific and toddlers have no need for their childhood to be ruined with horrific adult truths. Weren't you allowed to believe pilgrims and Indians cam e together for Thanksgiving for a few years of your childhood?
Yes.
Then what, explain why we dont actually give the land back because nobody actually cares outside of virtue signaling?
Where's the hard part?
Don't explain, "I don't know", or "ask them" goes far. Better than telling garbage to unlearn.
