Yeah North Dakota is #1. The sad part is that's probably due to the number of reservations there. One of my best friends and my stepdad both grew up on reservations and the number of family members and friends they both told me they lost to alcoholism is fucking staggering.
Yes, alcohol was and is absolutely pushed on indigenous people as a manner of subjugation, like crack was pushed in black neighborhoods and opium was pushed on China. It's really tragic.
