The only “natives” here are Mexicans and Native Americans
I don’t wanna start a shit storm, but I think Canada got it right calling them first nations.
For one it’s just more accurate, they’re more than tribes, they’re independent, sovereign, recognized nations, who were indeed here first. First nations, has a certain simplicity and forthrightness that’s hard to fuck up.
Secondly, as a giant ass white dude from the Midwest I consider myself native. I hate to be rude about it, but my ancestors have been here for centuries, I’m not from anywhere else. I’m willing to bet Europe doesn’t want me or any other American back.
Mexicans are native? The descendants of Spanish colonizers?
Considering they’re often largely mixed mestizo heritage. That they can clearly point to. 💯%
White Mexicans are clearly descendents of the conquistidors, and many are mixed race with the native mexicans but here is a link to get yaself informed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_evolution_of_Mexico
But yes Mexico originally extended into colarado
I’m from Arizona, I know this. I’m saying the mestizos who wouldn’t get pissed at being referred to as such are far less in number than you think. Most ID far more with the colonizers than the colonized
