American Indians want law repeal

As city leaders work to burnish the shine on the “new Boston” for this month’s Democratic National Convention, a group of northeastern Native American tribes is calling on the state to formally repeal a very “old Boston” anti-Indian law.
Passed in 1675 during King Philip’s War and never formally wiped from the books, the Boston Indian Imprisonment Act orders the arrest of all American Indians entering the city.
Repeal the damn law already, how difficult can it be? This is yet another example of the real purpose behind government imposed “racial” classifications. Folks, these classifications weren’t invented for the enforcement of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. They were invented centuries earlier for purposes such as those outlined in this story.
