Can confirm, went to elementary school in the 90s, and the lunch room had a mural of the Land Rush in it. The Land Rush was the day the government went “sike” and fucked over the Trail of Tears victims even more.
We even had a special day every year where they gave us bag lunches and we went out to the playground to larp stealing land from the natives.
Edit: wiki link for what I’m talking about lol
Second edit, in case you think I was being hyperbolic about larping as a small child, I present a newspaper article showing they’re still fucking doing it in 2013: https://archive.is/nz8uQ
