seems like a reasonable assignment for the right aged students (with the right teaching before it, to explain the pros, cons, and motivations for various actions), especially given that it says to write letters from different perspectives.

just because history judges actions as good/bad doesn't mean that people on any given side didn't have any reasonable intents for their approaches to particular issues. the point of this assignment would be to understand what the intentions might have been leading to certain actions by groups of people. that involves critical thinking and a level of understanding of nuance and psychology

See the problem was that the INTENT was racist and genocidal even back then, and to say "maybe they had good intention and didn't know no bedda" is dog whistling for white supremacy.
