William Bradford Beyond Reparations: an American Indian Theory of Justice 66 Ohio State Law Journal L.J. 1 (2005) It is perhaps impossible to overstate the magnitude of the human injustice perpetrated against American Indian people: indeed, the severity and duration of the harms endured by the original inhabitants of the U.S. may well rival those suffered by any other group past or present, domestic or international.
