When people say they are "1/x" native american it means they are descendants. That does not mean that any of the phenotypic traits will show up in the individual. White colonialist bred with native americans. There is a huge population of descendants from this mix.

as for the obsession with white people bringing it up i have no idea.




Some white people are now trying to show that they aren't pure white so they won't look and feel so guilty. They're basically big losers.



THAT IT!  So they don't feel so guilty about feather indian genocide.  Anon #11 I understand what you're saying, all i'm saying as that way more then 5% of white people claim to have feather indian ancestors when in reality only 5% of the population actually has feather indian in their blood.  I was wondering why more white people believe they have feather indian then actually do, why is it a phenomenon in white culture?  Then anon #12 said it best white people feel guilty.  It's the same reason why affirmative action was made legal, white people feeling guilty.  This feather indian blood cultural phenomenon is a more organic formation of their guilt.  Which is really strange because as a white person I don't feel guilty about anything I didn't do.  Those white people in history were no me and their actions are beyond my control. 

Does that make me a bad person for not feeling guilting about black people being slaves and the genocide of feather indians?  Feeling guilt indicates some sort of wrong doing but if you didn't do anything wrong if you didn't enslave black people or wipe out feather indians why would you feel guilty about it?  I feel bad about those events in history i'm sorry that such terrible things happened to those people but I don't feel guilty about it.

Sorry for the rant... discuss

Dude, didn't I basically say that in the very first reply?

More to the point, being white in america is a loathsome state to be in.  Anybody with any chance to claim non-white, non-european or even just non-british heritage is going to do it.

Being white is definitely not cool in american culture.  Being a gay transexual black woman is probably the coolest thing you could be in mainstream american culture where just being born non-white is considered "so brave."

That might be pushing it, but you seem to have the idea.

It is estimated that 26 million natives were slaughtered in "the land of the free" during the settling of the country.

I was stunned when I found that out. 26 million.

Just thought I would add that to the discussion. 26 million natives killed. 

I have always had respect for native americans, but when I found this out, I developed a deep sympathy for them as well.

They were fighting for land, it's called a war, people die in war.  There isn't a piece of land on this earth that hasn't been fought over. There are winners and losers at the end of a war, such is life.

I prefer the term feather indian (as opposed to "dot indian" referring to the people who live on the indian subcontinent with dots on their forehead).  I find it to be less dry academically boring then native american.

I find it fascinating that we clearly found out quickly that feather indians or native americans were not indians at all assuming we had gone around the world but continued to call them indians for hundreds of years even up until today.

Wow. Insightful perspective, NOT!

The point was 26 million slaughtered. The majority children elderly and female.

This was not war but rather an attempt to eradicate the indigenous peoples of the land that is now called North America. IMHO a monstrosity that was just plain wrong.

Jeee, y'think...  :rolleyes:  You know, the native Americans didn't really embrace refugees or multiculturalism either.  The Aztecs were committing their own little genocide when the Spanish rolled up.  Not that it is an excuse, just the another side of the coin.

So, are you consumed with white guilt then?

Humans are fucking corrupt as fuck no matter where you go.  You'd do better find the highlights.  Because humans are statistically trash.

If you can't defend your territory you don't deserve to own it, it happens in the animal world all the time, humans are no different.

Guess what?  If the natives couldn't defend their land, it's because they lacked the ability and intelligence to defend it, survival of the fittest.

You really hate it so much?  Go live in the woods for a week and then report back to us on how wonderful being away from the toxic technology is.  Reality is different then the liberal dream world you live in.

"liberal dreamworld"

Being a little butthurt? Somebody says something that's not in tune with your view of the world? Must be a liberal?
Damn man, you're in deep. They got you programmed like a good little yapdog, mate.

Why aren't you living in a meadow with birds chirping and butterflies flying and deer coming up and licking your face?  Those multiple or 2 times you went camping when you were a kid were enough right?

As he types from his computer connected to the internet inside his home. 

Maybe you can go live in Africa or something if you find modern technology so horrible. :smilingpuppy:
