But whites did bring diseases to the new world. I am Cherokee, British, French, Irish, Dutch, German, African American, and I see enough blame to spread around too all of my ancestors. But I would rather live in Current day USA than how any of my ancestors lived!!!!!!!!!! AMEN

It went both ways. When Europeans came to America, not much was expected of them their first year, as they had to become “seasoned” - that is, exposed to all the common diseases in the New World, and survive - went to a lecture recently, was told only 50% of new arrivals survived in early colonial America.
