You can’t call them Indians anymore unless you clarify which group you are referring to.

Feathers or dots.
Casinos or call centers.

true enough, we have to clarify if we mean American Indians or Indians from India.

I wonder if Dan Snyder gave in to liberal politically correct pressures. It’s interesting that the Indian tribe pushing hard on the Redskins name seemed unimpressed. They said they welcome this development, but look to the day when he changes the name. These pressure groups cannot be appeased. They will still be perpetually angry about this, no matter what Snyder does.

And if Snyder ever does change the name, they will then be angry about “what took so long”.

Just call them aborigines, like the Aussie.

I’m tired of all this PC garbage but the unPC is confusing. I too, hate “native”. They didn’t invent the country or come up with the name. So they are not native to this country as a people, only to some land later called North America.

What are they called in Canada? Native Canadians?
