This is so important because our history tells our kids that evil whites took over the Indians land, giving them a complex. In fact, the Indians did what we did, seized it from people that came before them. Or did we re-take Aztlan? Was Quetxycoatyl a white man?
This is also important because scientists have told us there were no other migrations but the Bering Land Bridge. I always wondered how Vikings sailed all over the globe before others were using the wheel, but are said to have not been capable of making it to North America in ancient times. No, not the people who invented modern agriculture! Society tells us blond people are stupid. Nah, they couldn't have sailed here and settled! Thank God scientists are now (somewhat) free to investigate other theories of settlement, such as the Atlantic Ice Bridge theory.
We've all enslaved, been enslaved, stole land, had land stolen from us, etc....So lets stop the racial bickering already. Now can I have my reservation land back?
I realize there's this strong desire to have the original settlers of the Americas to turn out to be these blonde obviously European types (for the irony factor) but I think you're going to be disappointed. The article beginning this thread is talking about Austronesians/Melanesians, who are very obviously different from "Native Americans" but they're certainly not blonde Europeans. Same goes for Luza from Brazil.
Once you start going back well beyond 10,000 years you're really getting to a point where the races as we think of them didn't exist. There was an incredible amount of migration going in many directions; almost no one in the world today lives where their original ancestors lived.
