the other day in history we were working on a section for Indians. and i think that we , as americans or whites, owe them so much! like land and money! because of everything that we have done! and they have a high suicide and alcaholism rate too! and they are on little crappy reservations! its horrible!!
if anyone on here is am Indian, i am so sorry! and I feel so bad! anyone agree or know what I could do?
thanks so much!

First off, they aren't Indians, that is an incorrect name given to them by Columbus when he thought he stopped his ship in India. Hence, theres Indians from India and Native Americans were the native American people.
I understand how you weel, but just in what you've written like, "we, as americans or whites" you basically just said that everyone reading this was white or american. You should have said non-native american because america is so diverce.
Other then that I totally understand what you mean. They do have Indian reserves though. I guess you could contribute or help them.
