I am not Native American but would like to share with you the texts that helped me to better understand the Native American culture and my understanding of the atrocities that occurred. Many Native Americans were killed, raped, starved, displaced and betrayed by the settlers to America. The quote from Chief Red Cloud above is probably the simplest and most accurate way to portray the betrayal of his people. \n\nMany tribes were reduced to a minisclule fraction of thier numbers in mass masacres (in which only the white men had rifles) - the most famous of these was the massacre at Wounded Knee. Eventually the tribes in thier dwindling numbers were resigned to reservations and virtually starved because of the fact that they now had only limited hunting lands and the settlers had slaughtered (almost to extinction) the buffalo - which was the Native Americans staple food source. A very similar thing happened here in Australia to our Aboriginal tribes.\n\nThere is so much to know on this topic and I would advise looking into these:\n\n"Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee" by Dee Brown (book)\n\n"Savagery and the American Indian" by Ken Kirby (film documentary)\n\nand checking out this web site for any more documentaries on your Native People.\n\nhttp://shenandoahfilms.com\n\nYou will not only learn of the atrocious behaviour of an ignorant government through this but will hopefully discover a culture which is rich in warmth, respect and mysticism.

NO!!  What is this thing that people think we get hand outs!!  \n\nI'll tell you what I get for being Native - 4 dollars a year!! Because of the treaty my ancestors signed in 1850.  That amount did not change with time.

FIRST THANK YOU. The Indians were not Native to America. Evolution has it that everyone came from Africa. do we know that as fact? No. But that is getting off the question. Thank you again for clarifying that Indians are not native.

There weren't many domesticable breeds in America.  So, Europeans had to bring over horses, cows, sheep etc.  \nRead Guns, Germs and Steel

No I don't think that that should be done to ANY person from any country. Why can't some people understand THAT THEY ONLY WANT A BETTER LIFE? Why is this so hard to understand? Did they sent the white back to Europe? No. I wonder what did the native Americans wanted to do.....

If you believe the landbridge story connecting Asia to America, then Asian nomads first approached onto America and became the Native Americans after settling down.\n\nIf not, then the vikings were the first people to come to America with evidence. There are remains of a settlement up on Newfoundland which ceased to survive. Christopher Columbus (who was looking for the India in Asia), winded up landing in one of the Carribean islands and made that contineant famous in Europe.

The proclamation closed off the frontier to colonial expansion. It was meant to calm the fears of the Indians, who felt that the colonists would drive them from their lands as they expanded westward. However the colonists could not help but feel a strong resentment when what they viewed to be their prize was snatched away from them. The proclamation stated that "all lands west of the heads of all rivers which flowed into the Atlantic Ocean from the west or northwest were off-limits to the colonists." I think the colonists would have been really upset to hear that. The url below is where i found my answer... after alot of reading

Even the "Native" Americans are immigrants.  They came from Asia about 14,000 years ago.  No humans evolved in the Americas.  All came from somewhere else.  Indeed, the only continent that has any "natives" at all is Africa, where humanity evolved.  They are immigrants everywhere else.

Well before the Europeans first came to America there were an estimated 9 million Natives living here.\nby the end of the 1880's that number was just over a million\n\n90% were killed by the new diseases brought over \nwhole tribes just vanished over night!\n\nthen after that the American government practiced Eugenics on Native women up until the late 1970's \nThe Native American Woman's Health Education Resource Center has documented abuses carried out by the Indian Health Services (IHS), Job Corps, and other agencies on which Native American women were forced into sterilization so they wouldn't breed any more little redskins...\n\nI believe the official number of victims is just over 65,000\nbut the case study only looked at 12 tribes. so most of us think that number would rise quite a bit if the whole truth got out.\n\ncant tell you about Africa but I'm sure Nelson Mandela could share a few stories...

Today there are old books on line because the copy wright has expired and many are being typed in a web site for all to read free. The farm as we know it was just emerging for the common man from life as a serf tied to the land owner. Many farmers in Europe were just allowed to use a piece of land. In New France some came out and claimed land just by marking it in an area protected by their soldiers. There is an amazing story of a French group being sold land on the  Ohio River that was totally undeveloped. The immigrants were all from down town Paris and were used to working one job for the aristocracy. When they had spent all their savings and traveled by ship and land to the river location they found huge trees and wonderful soil. Without proper tools they chopped tree after tree and then hollowed them out for a home. Animals and fish were obtained anyway they could. Gunpowder was there but scarce. The will to live away from the crazy Kings in Europe and the many wars allowed the spirit of the pioneers to be totally awesome. They stayed until a farm was made. The Louisiana French were taken by the English army and forced to beg among the New England colonies one winter . Life was never safe anywhere.
