University of Minnesota's Troubling Record with Native Minnesotans and Call for Reparations.

TL;DR Summary
The University of Minnesota has been accused of committing genocide and ethnic cleansing of Indigenous peoples for financial gain, according to a report conducted through a collaboration with the school. The report marks the first time a major American university has critically examined its history with Native people. The report recommends that the university should hire more Native American faculty, offer students additional financial support, and give back land to atone for its historic mistreatment of the state's tribes. The university has taken some steps towards addressing concerns, but tribal leaders say more needs to be done.
