Psst -- According to Conquest, Native boarding schools only barely got started in the 1890s, so people should probably be thinking of more straightforwardly genocidal projects for the 1800s. Like massacres of Indian tribes. Civil War. Black people still slaves. Sundown towns and lynchings in second half of the century.
