Neither. We look like native americans. No one has ever confused me with either.

They look like Native Americans ....





A lot of Hispanic people are descendants of Native South Americans so it would make sense that North and South Native Americans would resemble each other.

Neither.



Take a look at real Native Americans.....not just ones in movies, and you will see we are distinctly different from "Asians" and " Hispanics".





LOL @dfs

Native American is the legal term for the indigenous of only the US.....so that kind of counts out the Incas and the Aztecs. Nor are the people of the US and Canada their descendants. Seems like you really don't know your history too well and its a good thing you don't get a say in who looks Native and who doesn't when it comes to us. Your opinion doesn't matter in the least. Other Indians have never had an issue recognizing me as one of their own. Especially here in the Eastern-woodlands, where most of us are pretty light-skinned. There is more than one look to Indians in North America. I am sorry you are so uninformed.

So go ahead, and try and tell me my own history some more, and while you are at it, do take a minute to look up the definition of ignorant.



LOLOLOLOL. You certainly are fond of uneducated rants, aren't you? Do yourself a favour and access some current information, and maybe step outside your sad, little cardboard box while you are at it.



LOL. I am perfectly aware of my own origins. We migrated here from the East Coast....not Asia. Read a peer-reviewed paper published in the last two decades and it will tell you that we share no more genetic markers with Asians, than we do with Italians, Nigerians or Iranians. I am sorry you haven't had an up to date education and are still clinging to the Beringia theory that was only relevant at the same time Encyclopedia Britannica circa 1967 was printed. My last fully white direct relative was four generations ago.....my paternal great-great-Grandfather, who came here from Scotland......and we are not dogs to be talked about in terms of "breed". And ONE.

LOL WINNINGS, "REAL" native americans? Can you be any more ignorant. The REAL native americans today are the descendants of Aztecs and the Incas. You don't even look native. You look mixed. Kinda funny to see you talking about REAL. Most native americans from the north were exterminated by the way. The rest are, for the most part, mixed now.





Edit: LOL I think you are the one who should look up the definition of ignorant. Hearing you talk about indians is like hearing a light skinned mulatto talking about REAL Africans. But hey if you love being Native so much i can't blame you. It kinda sucks your ethnicity was almost wiped out by the Europeans though, unlike Aztecs and Incas who are still here. If you have an inferiority complex and you are trying to fool yourself into believing that Natives from the U.S were any different from the Asians who crossed the bering strait you are sadly deluded. Unlike other southern native ethnic groups who were colonized, natives from the north were pretty much exterminated. That's the reason why the US government gave the remaining northern indians the term "native americans" because they were not a menace anymore. The truth is, native americans are of mongoloid origin just like japanese, chinese and koreans are and that is a fact. If you have light skin you are MIXED probably with european. So while there are different native american phenotypes, "pretty light skin" is definitely not one of them. It's common sense.



Edie: LOL. A whitewashed poser who has no clue about her own origins is telling me to "access" current information? I'd love to know about that current info you got "native girl". Just Accept the fact that you are A MIXED BREED. Don't be ashamed to admit that you have white blood. There is no shame in that. XD
