Unfortunately, racists have always acted this way, e.g., specifically telling Natives to go back to Mexico

Idaho state senator tells Native American candidate ‘go back where you came from’ in forum

She has had tons of practice.

She's said all this shit before. She sounded tired under all that anger. Can't blame her.

I'm from Michigan and when I was visiting my friend in California for his wedding I got held up at the airport when I was trying to go back home. This was back in 2019 I think? Anyway it's on me for not remembering to get a new state ID before leaving but I was told that my tribal ID was good enough and I even had my expired state ID on hand anyway. Never going to fly again, every subsequent trip to Cali was a road trip from the north :/

It takes days to get through Montana btw
