They are Americans of Indian heritage. Not just off the boat. Most recent Indian I met was the anesthesiologist when I had compound fracture of wrist repaired two months ago.. I told him how extremely sensitive I am to a anesthesia and he did it perfectly.
Not only that, the physical therapist at my orthopedist’s office is a muslim guy. Surgeon is totally American, looks like he’s descended from Mayflower passengers. Physical therapist’s face lit up when he saw the wonderful progress this unveiled white woman made with her wrist.
If my Black MD from Nigeria took a job away from an American MD, I’m glad he did. I’ve lived all over the country and been all over the world and never had a better MD. Incidentally, he saw through the covid crap immediately, thought I didn’t need those awful clot shots.
Who were your ancestors? Mine were illiterate kids from Wales, indentured servants who worked for years on the Caribbean island of Nevis, cutting down forests before the Blacks came In and planted banana trees. What they got for that? Dropped off on coast of North Carolina with the clothes on their back. Very grateful to them. The point is, we’re all immigrants here unless you’re Chief Big Feather
And his ancestors came from Mongolia.
