This is a fascinating graph, but I'd love to see citations of the data you're working from. It would be interesting to duplicate your results. Since the graphic itself refers to aggregated information from news articles, I'm particularly interested in knowing the nature and strength of the connections you've shown. For instance, is person A described in an article as "thought to be connected" to person B, or something stronger? And how relevant is each secondary connection to JE?
@NewGoliath @DocJ6 @MWilson @QasimRashid i certains agree Native Americans are being horribly mistreated, both individually and as a group.

It might be helpful to explain we're using "genocide" in the cultural sense when in the "ongoing" context. This is not literal genocide, which is killing people based on nationality or ethnicity.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying erasing a culture is okay. But calling it genocide is hyperbolic and makes you sound like a troll.

What the US has done to Native American culture is bad enough to justify complaints that are entirely legitimate. Don't exaggerate.
