do most native american people think that marrying black people is wrong?

You can never generalize.  Some do some dont.  Just like some Black folks, I propose, might think its wrong to marry Indians.\n\nBottom line, its up to the individual, but for what it's worth, this is not an uncommon occurance, especially in the South.  I personally can think of maybe a half dozen Black Indians I know, but then again I live in Oakland, CA, a place with large Native and Black communities.

I do not care in the least bit if I get thumbs down but I will ALWAYS stand by my beliefs that gay and lesbian marriages are morally wrong and they should not be able to marry as heterosexual couples do. Hetero couples marry for the procreation of our species, a gay and lesbian marriage is a selfish one, they cannot procreate our species in the way GOD intended. In the way that GOD made man (and woman) to do. It defies the natural way of life and creation. Just because it fits in a hole doesn't mean you should shove it there.

Not any more or less than interracial marriage has

It is reverse racism, and I do not agree with it. Some white people feel guilty over their ancestors' role in the history and let black people get away with it, and some black people fully exploit the situation. I think no one should use any derogatory terms towards another person. We should all try to let go of the past and move on towards a better tomorrow.

I don't know why either.  I am in an interracial marriage, and am very happy with it.  Sure, there are people who do not agree with our relationship, but we don't care.  "They don't pay our bills."\n\nIt astounds me at times how people will go out of their way to rationalize their prejudices.  They say, "Interracial relationships are wrong because society will be very hard on an interracial couple."  Society is hard on everybody.  If it's not about your race, it will be about something else.  Life is not fair, and fair is not equal.  But life is beautiful, and I agree with you-- all people are beautiful.

No!!! Making it illegal to marry outside of your race is going against so many bills and acts it's not even funny! Who ever told you this is very ignorant!

I completely agree with you. A lot of people who have written above believe that people should pay for their ancestors mistakes. Prejudice against white people is socially accepted and white empowerement is frowned upon. For any other race it is important for adults to teach their youth that their race is beautiful and equal to all others however if white adults teach this to their young it is sometimes mislabeled as white supremecy. Also a lot of other cultures forget that not only whites in the past have enslaved and treated people badly. I wonder if people know that some Native American tribes such as the Cherokee also kept Aficans as slaves. Or about all the problems in Africa even know with genocide and slavery. Not only Hitler supported genocide has no one heard of Darfur?

I hope you aren't saying that all whites are descendants of slave owners and all blacks are descendants of slaves.  \n\nI also hope you aren't suggesting that the way to remedy a wrong not committed against a person is to have someone who didn't commit the wrong give the person who wasn't wronged money or land.

From personal experience, I don't think its wrong. It shouldn't matter who you love or what race they are. All that matters is that you are in a loving, caring relationship.\nBe prepared though that not everyone will feel this way and not everyone will support you. There will always be people that will have something negative to say about your choice of partner. However the world is becoming more tolerant to such issues because there are way more interracial couples and babies out there nowadays.\nWhen my parents first got married, my grandfather asked them "what are you going to do with the children?"...my mom is black and my father white...and my mother replied very smartly ..."name them".\nMy grandfather didn't even want to be seen in public at a restaurant with my mother back then but now he's gotten used to the idea of my sister and I and now loves to take us girls shopping and spoil us rotten.\nI like being mixed. I think I have the best of both worlds. I don't consider myself black and I don't consider myself white. I am mixed race. I am equally black and equally white. I wouldn't choose one or the other if I had the chance.

there's nothing wrong with interracial relationships... if people don't like it..tough... just remember the culture and religion are issues among people...and remember to just ignore the people that stare... people only hate what they don't understand... remember that... people got to learn that the worlds changing... they need to learn to accept that there are going to be gay marriages and interracial marriages

If marrying outside your race was wrong, then Abraham, Joseph, Moses, David, Solomon, Esther, Samson to name the majors would all be found guilty. God so loved the "world" that He gave His only Son. It didn't say God so loved the whites only, the chinese only, or what have you. God created blacks and other nationalities in His image and likeness and God said it was good. It's not the color of your skin you should be concerned with, it's the contents and issues in your heart coming out of your mouth. So we might as well get over any inner racist feelings that are rooted down in there because you will have a big problem in God's kingdom where there are multicultures and mixed babies and people all in Christ, made in His image.

wow.... i'm sorry but this is a really dumb question. but if you really want an answer as to why you THINK all black americans look alike whereas other blacks don't, then here goes....\n\nblack americans usually don't have reservations about marrying and having children with other black americans, regardless of their true origin. (we won't even get into the unfortunate idea that many black americans don't know their true country of origin... thanks america!)\n\nso anyway, some "pure" africans (and caribbeans for that matter - don't forget we exist too!) tend to marry and have children with people from their same country. this is why the physical features of haitians, nigerians, ghanians, jamaicans, etc... might be a little more noticeable to you than those of the black americans.

I think it depended on what part of the country you lived in and the amount of contact you had with Native Americans.  From my reading, Indians were considered above animals but worse than slaves in their treatment of the whites.\n\nThere were certainly whites both male and female who thought the Native Americans were treated poorly, but I believe the vast majority were indifferent to their plight.\n\nMakes you wonder what we do today as a society that future people will cringe at our ignorance.\n\nMike Honeycutt
