Wow, talk about divisive. 

It's one thing to acknowledge that history has been unkind to some people, another to blame "white people" in general for that.

I guess cultivating a strong historical myopia is necessary in order to pursue certain political objectives. Ignore the context of the rest of world history, and focus on the evil Europeans, as if there was no conquest and domination and assimilation elsewhere, too. But then I guess that is the point, if those Europeans had never come here, the Inuit would never have known there was a world beyond their own, and that would have been preferable?

But then, they would never have met Asians or black people, either.  They would never have had a chance to mix muktuk with wild nori and sushi rice. Or learn Spanish.

World history has been the history of conquest and domination, even in pre-Columbian America. Ask the tribes who allied with the Spanish because they were dominated by the Incas and Aztecs...
