I want to clarify that I have the utmost respect for the real Family members who the government decided to use/identify as the only "Indians" or "Native Americans", understanding that history is not the only story. I understand that "their" goal was to dilute the True People's story so much that we could never really know the truth, and to steal the land in a self righteous manner.
During this time of year when "we" celebrate the destruction of the culture(s) and people(s) who were already here before "Europeans" came and discovered this land, I think it is important to use your indwelling intelligence to answer a few "common sense" questions, to attempt to pay a little respect to the true first keepers of this land. Everyone here now should be a keeper of the land, but we know that most of us just rape the land like an invader. Therefore, we are still foreigners in that sense. Until we respect the land that is immediate to us and the planet as a whole, we do not deserve to be incarnate on it, no matter where we go.
Q 1: In order to define who "Native Americans" are or are not, don't we need to establish a baseline to identify who/where they came from before we can go any further?
Q 2: If we cannot establish who/where the "Native Americans" originate from then how can we identify who is not Native American with any certainty?
Q 3: Do you accept scientific explanations for who you are, from a racial perspective?
Q 4: What do the people generally accepted as being "Native American" say about the oneness of humanity?
Q 5: Regardless of if humanity is truly one or not, what is the purpose of race, other than to create division? Do other animal have races?
Q 6: Why do people who claim some type of indigenous or Native American status when checking a box on a job application or defending this in court have a tendency to prove the accusers case for them instead of leaving the burden of proof on the accuser if questioned about it?
Q 7: Why is it coincidental that the civil war broke out around the same time that original 13th Amendment was ratified? By the way Lincoln was assassinated around that same time, and a different 13 Amendment document was used going forward, instead of the one on record in New Hampshire and other "States" libraries. Somehow Virginia had no records of this after the war was over. Distractions work very well sometimes, and continue to do so. Oh, and the indigenous people had told the settlers that their Constitution was flawed from the get go and that they would be forever correcting it, because women were not included in government decision making, along with all of the other loopholes that allowed special interest groups to control it.
Q 8: Did some of the indigenous people of this land have a Constitution or agreement amongst themselves around the same time that European settlers came here and started establishing ways to govern settlers? Did they need a clause that referenced slavery?
Q 9: When did the Federal government get the authority to determine who was "Indian" or "Native American"? How does the government of a late/last comer trump that of the first and/or other people who were already here?
Q 10: Why are the similarities between the concepts of the Hopi bloodline and the Dogon bloodline a fact even though "Africans" had not been here in the "Americas" prior to slavery, according to his-story?
Q 11: What does "America" mean? Please don't tell me it was the name of some European. Please explain what the name means.
Q 12: What other people on the planet are we using Blood Quantum tests to identify how indigenous to the land they are?
Q 13: How may Europeans in Europe have taken a Blood Quantum test to see if they belong to the land they claim? How many people that are not from Europe have gone to Europe to administer this test for them, after establishing the rules for them?
Q 14: How many corporations in Europe are owned by none Europeans versus the opposite?
Q 15: How many Europeans have had their environmental resources taken by invaders, and sent back to their homeland?
Q 16: Do people in South Africa take a Blood Quantum test? Australia, Hawaii, etc? Why not, if so?
Q 17: During the last Ice Age (Worm), do you think that sea levels dropped low enough for people to travel across the Atlantic or Pacific oceans via any means, since much of the water was trapped in ice form at that time? There is really only one ocean, but I used these words for identification and communication purposes.
Q 18: Where did the Atlantic and Pacific oceans get their names from?
Q 19: What did the indigenous people here before Europeans call this land?
Q 20: If the first people to occupy any region of the Earth have no say so about how to identify themselves or how to use the natural resources of the land, then what good does it do to identify themselves to the last people to get there?

Check the Index of Historical Documents link at the bottom of this link. It has some excellent documents on the purpose of those who give thanks for allowing them to take over this land called America by most.
