I did not.

Nor did I

As they did to other tribes. Grow the f**k up and quit being a f*****g pussy

Why did you do that, Guimar??? And can you please provide evidence that your entire ancestral line has owned the ground they lived on and didn't take it from anyone back to the dawn of time?

and don't forget about parking them into reserves like animals.

much like the braves did to both other tribes and settlers they were rarely not at war with other tribes

Yes, it was so sad. But it was the Congress of the time that ordered the soliders to steal their land. The raping of women and girl,the killing of men were added extras by those soliders. Our government should be 200% ASHAMED OF ITSELF!!

In Canada, they're called First Nation people. Talking to a husband and wife, not quite sure how I should refer to them, he laughed and said it didn't matter to them. Not all feel the same though.

Or Original Invaders

In Mexico some of us prefer using the word which translated to english would be something like "autochthon" to refer those people who first inhabited these territories.

Although many from the US thinks of our country as "America," "America" actually refers to the entire continent. Used correctly, it is not so much a cultural word as a geographic word. We would do well to remember this in our conversations. Assuming that people will know what we're talking about--especially those not from the US--assumes that the US is the best, most natural representation for an entire continent of countries and peoples, none of which is fair or true.

Yes!! Thank you!!!

The land they lived on is now called the Americas. They were native to that land. Thus, they are Native Americans. Get over it.

Aborigines

Just because it's written in a book or on a document, doesn't make it the Truth. These are the True American people. Our race came over on ship. Welcomed them to Dinner and then the Greed took over and then the killing. Nearly Exterminated an Entire Race of Real American people

The more correct archaeological term is "indigenous people". Also called aboriginal people. YMMV

What's the right name to be addressed?

They are native to the North American Continent, so they are Native Americans. They are more American than we are.

They are native to the North American continent, hence they are Native Americans. They are more American than we are.

They should just be called Americans. And everyone else Invasive Americans.
