Native American groups join the call for reparations and target colleges who took land from tribes and only exist 'because of everything that was taken'
- Native American groups are demanding reparations centuries after numerous tribes had land taken by 'land-grab universities and colleges'
- Following the signing of the Morrill Act by President Abraham Lincoln in 1862, approximately 10.7 million acres of land were seized from 250 tribes
- University of Minnesota received 94,440 acres of land, while Cornell University in New York acquired more than 987,000 acres across 15 states
