When I came to my senses, I realized I'd ask the people that I get most of my knowledge from (aka You TFPers)
So here it is!
I am looking for a common ground for a series of artwork which is the theme of cultural loss through being conquered by white culture.
What cultures (I would like specific) have been destroyed, altered, or lost due to white colonialism? When were they lost, what was lost, and where are they now?
If you can send me in a direction, I will do the rest of the work. But I just need the direction.
Thanks guys!

i have to ask, what university awarded you a degree without you even performing "hard research?"
