What a photo! A group of Flathead Native Americans surrounding a Christmas tree in front of their tipi in the Rocky Mountains circa 1910.

Yeah, I'm a Native American, too. So are Mexicans, Colombians, and anyone else born in the Americas. Get over yourself. The term is meaningless.

It is full of meaning. I am not descended from anyone from India. I am descended from the indigenous peoples of this land before European settlement. Unless you are a descendent of those people Beth Pritchard, you are not Native American. Get over yourself and get educated.

I agree, so I blocked her.
Martha, look up Indian Boarding Schools (thats what they were called to avoid anyone already offended) many Natives were forcibly converted to Catholicism by the time this photo was taken. Maybe it was their first Christmas? :)

I have heard indigenous people of America call themselves Indian , American Indian, and Native American at various times. I'm curious to know which is the acceptable term, or if it just depends on where you are and who you ask-- anyone know?

Darrell why say it the wrong way, when you know that it isn't right? (It hasn't been, for centuries.) If you were proud...You'd be offended as well.

Pretty bad when PC has taken over what was a proud tradition. Photo taken from the movie "Monte Walsh". An old cowboy dealing with the new and not necessarily better world. Lakota, Cheyenne etc..I guess those terms are un PC too... Merry Christmas to the awesome Indians with ancestry to a proud tribe.

Instead of complaining about "Indian", why not ask people to refer to you as your tribal name? Cherokee, Iroquois, etc? That is accurate.

This comment is from a white person born in America. When speaking of someone who I know to be of Indian heritage, I always say he/ she is Indian not from India but America. I always ask because I'm curious, what Nation? Just as when you say you are from the USA, they will ask ...what state?? This debate about Indians isn't so different from many Whites still fighting the civil war. Just my opinion

What gets me most about this is that it's usually not real American Indians who react with the most manufactured outrage, but white wannabes who think that because they're 1/16th Cherokee that makes them Indians. Yeah, no.

Valerie Story I'm fine with being called an Indian. It has never bothered me. My grandma used to say she's a red Indian. People knew. I knew. Nowadays being PC it's Native American or indigenous or by the tribe. I don't get hot.

This is something I never thought I would see. I hope they were willing converts and not forced to do so though. It takes a lot of the meaning out of worship when your life is threatened if you refuse to do so.

You are obviously uneducated on all of the atrocities that the first European occupation of this country included. You have been watching one too many John Wayne movies and other westerns that depict Christianity as being like it is today. Missionary work was helpful and provided necessary things for people. The main difference is that in reality, the missionaries were only providing a service that wouldn't have been necessary if a full scale occupation of a foreign land wasn't displacing every native of that place. You should really go and read up on all the actual battles between Native Americans and the first American settlers. You will find that RARELY would Natives ever attack unprovoked. You may find that your sympathies find the Natives more than worthy. Just because white people are your ancestors, doesn't mean that you have to be proud of EVERY mistake they have made and try to justify it. THEY are not US. The fact is, they participated in a holocaust on a much larger scale than Hitler could have dreamed to achieve and now, the Natives have come to represent the minority in their own land because of it. Have a heart. At the very least, have a brain.

If you are native, why would you even try to dispute the validity of my comment? Making it seem as though missionaries didn't refuse helping those who refused to convert? They really did that. It's not something I made up. You made it seem as though natives were killing off all the missionaries. That never happened. Natives were primarily attacking those who were attacking them first.

I assumed that when you said my people sent for, you meant white people because they were the ones who usually told the missionaries where they were going. Lol but I guess, now that I read it again you must have meant natives called for missionaries. Oh well, my mistake. It happens.

It looks to me in the photo, like each person is making something, perhaps as gifts? Also, I have a great grand uncle, Constantine (Father Con) Scollen (1841-192), born in County Fermanagh, Ireland. Father Con was a missionary to North American tribes. He was a linguist who, in addition to his bi-lingual childhood tongues of Erse (Irish) and English, was fluent in Greek, Latin, French, Italian, German and the First Nation languages/dialects of Cree, Blackfoot, Peigan (North and South) Stoney, Ojibwe, Sarcee and Arapaho. In Wyoming in 1892, he created an Arapaho alphabet and orology. It was probably the first example of a written form of the language. His original notebook is in the Smithsonian Institution. Father also wrote an unpublished autobiography, “Thirty Years Experience Among the Indians of the Northwest.” Lost for 110 years, some of the individual chapters were recently discovered in The Buffalo Bulletin between March 1893 and April 1894 using the Wyoming State Library’s database, Wyoming Newspapers. A distant cousin put these chapters together in an e-book that is available on Amazon. The title is the same as Con's manuscript title and written by Ian Wilson.

It was the year after we invented global warming. The Indians didn't have winter clothes at the time and constantly complained of the cold. So European settlers took lots of CO2 over there with them to warm the place up. That's why the US is still one of the biggest producers of CO2 to this day.

I Talked with a Choctaw about the Native American bit - he said he has never been an American, he is Chata - and "Indian" is preferable to him over other terms. "Chata" is a proud word going back to the origins of the tribe.

At the time Columbus set sail, India wasn't called India it was still referred to as Hindustan. The word Indian derives from the word En Dios which is latin for "people of god". However it's all pointless as long as you're using the English language. Unless you use the word your particular tribe uses to refer to it's own people than your argument will always be invalid. Especially if you don't know the true history. I posted this in other comment replies in hopes that some ndns will educate themselves before they speak and sound stupid.
