It’s refreshing to see a writer use the term ‘American Indian’ as opposed to the incorrect term ‘Native American’.

The term “Indian” is actually a mistaken identity, since Columbus thought that he had landed in India, not a completely new continent.

“Indians” are those people that answer the phone when you call for customer service, and are racially and culturally different than Native Americans.

I don’t care about political correctness, I just want to use a more accurate term.
