That’s what it read to me as well but it’s just kind of confusing. He seems centred on the US when Indigenous groups and their land spans the entire continent, with crossover into Canada (and I believe Mexico too).
I also don’t think Indigenous people would give up their land to Amazon but that’s just me.
Yeah, he’s just a chauvinist, so I wouldn’t expect much.
Iirc the Dawes act allowed for individual ownership of tribal land, and for individuals to sell it off. He might be referencing that, but who knows with him!
