À propos de ce contenu audio
What happens when your identity is erased — not by exile or execution, but by the stroke of a bureaucrat’s pen? In this powerful episode of The Forbidden Frequency, we uncover the chilling history of “paper genocide,” a systematic effort in the early 20th century to reclassify Native Americans — particularly in Virginia — as “Negro” or “colored” on official records.
Through the voices of descendants, the echoes of altered birth certificates, and the scars left by eugenics-era policies like the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, this solo-narrated story reveals how state and federal systems deliberately erased Indigenous identity to deny tribes their heritage, their sovereignty, and their future.
But this is not just a history of erasure — it’s a testament to resilience. It’s about communities who remembered even when the paperwork said they didn’t exist.
Join us as we break the silence and amplify the stories that were nearly lost to ink and intent. This is not just a forgotten chapter — it’s a reckoning.
