'Run, run as fast as you can'

"Thousands of #NativeChildren died in U.S. boarding schools that were not reported by the U.S. Interior Department in its report, the Washington Post reveals. Suffering from malnutrition, diseases and abuse, the largest number of unreported children's deaths were at Chemawa Indian Training School in Oregon, followed by Haskell Indian Industrial School in Kansas. The largest total number of deaths were at Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania.
"The U.S. Interior reported only 12 deaths at Rapid City Indian Boarding School in South Dakota. However, The Washington Post reveals there were 45 children that died there. At the #PineRidgeBoardingSchool, the Interior reported only 4 children died, when there are 10 documented deaths of children.
"At #SaintLabre Indian Mission Boarding School in Montana, the Interior reported only one child died. However, thirty-three children are documented as dying there. The same #CatholicBoardingSchool was successfully sued by the Northern Cheyenne Nation for exploiting children in fundraising scams and funneling millions to the Catholic Church.
"The year-long investigation by The Washington Post documented that 3,104 students died at boarding schools between 1828 and 1970 -- three times as many deaths as reported by the U.S. Interior Department. The actual number of deaths could be as high as 40,000, since deaths of children in unmarked graves were either never reported or the records were destroyed."
