According to the United Nations, the "indigenous peoples" of a nation have the right to "self-determination as a people", and "not to be subjected to forced assimilation or destruction of their culture"



So why are the indigenous white peoples of the European nations denied these rights?  Why are they forced to be dispossessed of their lands, and forced to assimilate with hoards of non-white immigrants?
