Yep among other things, hard to keep up with political correctness and language. We aren’t supposed to talk of Indians any longer, but are supposed to say native American, or refer to the specific tribe such as Navajo. I understand Canada has similar issues with how to refer to their aboriginal people. And that the word “Eskimo” is politically incorrect now.
I recall the Edmonton Eskimos in the Canadian football league. I wonder if they have been pressured to change their name, similar to how the Washington Redskins have been so pressured.
Have said this many times but I still get a kick out of how people say American Indians are “Native Americans”. When one thinks about it, a Native American is anyone born in the USA (or perhaps born in North, South or Central America but I’m being specific). I am a Native American—born in Lynn MA, a part of the USA. I am also a person of color—white. White is a color.
I think Canadians refer to their “Indians” as “First Nations” or something.
Somebody born in Toronto is a Native Canadian.
Somebody born in the United State of America is a Native
American.
