It's true that blacks have been suffering from a multi generational inferiorty complex due, in part, to the enslavement of their ancestors. However, the way out of it is NOT to steal other people's heritage and claim it as your own. When you teach your children lies about themselve, when they discover the truth, it'll be even harder on them. Just teach them the truth about their actual heritage.

One of the main reasons for blacks in claiming to be native American is nothing more than for welfare benefits. You guys have been envious of the lifelong and multigenerational welfare payments made to native Americans, and you want to get on that same gravy train. The only reason why some of you THINK you have native ancestry is because your ancestors were enslaved by some native American tribes. The other notion, that blacks were indigenous, is easily refuted by the overwhelming evidence that all your black ancestors were brought by the Atlantic slave trade from Africa. If any blacks actually do have native DNA (which is actually far rarer than white Americans having native DNA), your'e still not "native" anymore than white Americans would be considered native (not even by themselves, let alone any native American tribe).

@Curious.JenJen That "truth" has never been "hidden." It's because it's not true and there is NO evidence to back up these recently invented claims. Even IF the Olmec were negro (btw, most anthropologists don't think so. Most believe they're just the ancestors of the native people who still live in the area who actually exactly resemble those stylized images, even more so that negroes, or that they might be related to polynesians who also aren't negro), so even IF the Olmecs were negro, they still aren't the ancestors of the african negro slaves transplanted here from Africa, the ancestors of ALL black Americans. For perspective, here's a list of some of the "hidden truths" Afrocentrists have recently "discovered" (i.e. invented in order to overcome their inferiority complex): 1) That all the original European nobility were negro until white people kicked them out of their castles and stole their identities. 2) That the vikings were negro until white people replaced them all in just a couple hundred years, leaving no trace whatsoever (or that modern native blond Scandiavians are just "lightened" afrcan negroes). 3) That negroes were the original inhabitants of the UK, through the middle ages until the 16 and 1700's when all of them were transported out of the UK (leaving not trace) to the Americas (including the Carribean and Jamaca) where they were enslaved, so all those immigrating to the UK in modern times, from those countries, are just descendants of people who lived and built the UK originally. 4) the the "Black Irish" are really "negro irish." 5) that leprechauns were negro African pygmies. 6) That negroes were the first to have blue eyes and blond hair until the ancestors of Europeans from the east, killed all the men and raped the women which is why some Europeans now have blond hair and blue eyes, and 7) that virtually all of their ancestors were indigenous to the US and only 4% were from Africa. There's a lot more, but these are some of my favorites. People with an extreme inferiority complex are often very vulnerable, just as the guy on this video describes, but it can make you extremely vulnerable and gullible to the most ridiculous ideas. Having lost and been humiliated, after world war one, the Germans suffered from an inferiority complex too. That's why it was relatively easy for some of the crazy ideas of the nazis to take hold. One of the "hidden truths" the nazis discovered was that their ancestors lived and built Atlantis until a cataclism forced them out to Europe. Even the place Atlantis is only a fantasy.

@Curious.JenJen Even his so called "evidence" is just circumstantial. "Why would they do that?" isn't actually evidence for anything, especially when you WANT to believe something. Btw, the reason negroes were transported all the way from Africa was due to the fact that Americans really didn't enslave native Americans. The Spanish did, in great numbers but eventually they all died or there just were enough of them left, or were too rebellious, so they eventually switched to african negroes because, 1) they were able get access to them easily by their being enslaved first, by their own people, and 2) they were more compliant and docile when compared with native Americans (no longer being in their native land contributed to this). Another purpose for blacks in claiming to be native American is nothing more than for welfare benefits. You guys have been envious of the lifelong and multigenerational welfare payments made to native Americans, and you want to get on that same gravy train. The only reason why some of you THINK you have native ancestry is because your ancestors were enslaved by some native American tribes. The other notion, that blacks were indigenous, is easily refuted by the overwhelming evidence that all your black ancestors were brought by the Atlantic slave trade from Africa.

@njgrant3988 Native African heritage is actually a great heritage and legacy, that was, in a way, stolen from you as a result of slavery and the transatlantic slave trade. It is mostly "hidden" because it isn't studied by most people. Most people naturally study their own people, which is why European heritage is the most studied in the US. Someone needs to really study and uncover African history and blacks are wasting their time and energy studying and then claiming European (and indigenous American) heritage when they could be studying their own.

"So you're half and half? Something like that." What that means is that, at most, she's 1/4 but probably closer to 1/8, but she wants to be so badly that she's come up with some bogus justification for why dna (in other words, actual indigenous ancestry) doesn't matter. It's more important how you were raised and if you were raised with indigenous culture, that makes you all indigenous. She's full of it.

From Henry Louis Gates Jr.: Why Does It Matter So Much to Us? "In response to the vehement questioning and protests that the small amount (if any) of Native American ancestry generates among black people who take admixture tests, I’ve thought long and hard about the answer to this question. Barbara Krauthamer sums up her thinking this way: “Of course the myths about Indian ancestors endure for so many reasons, from a glimmer of truth to a desire to distance from Blackness to romanticized notions about Indians.” Add to this that at least since Thomas Jefferson compared Native Americans and African Americans in his infamously racist Notes on the State of Virginia (1781-1785), commentators have been valorizing Native Americans as America’s original “noble savage” and contrasting their nobility against the supposed inferiority of America’s “ignoble savages,” our black ancestors. Who wants to be thought of as ignoble or distinctly inferior? Then, too, there are those of us who love the idea that the people of color—the Indians and the escaped slaves—were sitting around campfires smoking peace pipes and plotting revenge against white settlers. But, by and large, that didn’t happen..."
