I don't think they could. But remember, things were way different back then. Racism against both blacks and Native Americans was the norm. Often, greed was the motivater in these cases. White settlers moved the Native Americans so they could take over their land. White plantation owners enslaved blacks so that they didn't have to pay wrkers, thus creating a higher profit for themselves.
