I just told you to educate yourself a bit. Native americans (true americans) came to the Americas thousands of years ago, most likely from north eastern asia, across a bride of land that no longer exist. Having lived thousands of years on a continent, the native americans developed features that are unique for them selves, and as such, if you want to use the word race (which I object to), they should naturally be classified as their own race. This; especially the historical part, is what you (and everybody else) should know of (according to me), even if your heritage doesn't have anything to do with native americans. Things like this should be common knowledge, if I had any say in it. So should geographical knowledge of the world be.</p> </p>

according to the berring land bridge (believe that's what it was called) asians migrated to north america.......but if you follow the belief that Africa and South America used to be connected you could say some of the indigenous natives might havehad black ancestoryalso....I've read certain books that compare ancient hyroglyphics of south america to africa and they are strikingly similar......</p>

Some other old remains are definitely central asian/caucasian rather than east asian. In short, the Americas are a land of immigrants.

to be honest I'm not an expert on this subject matter, lol....all I can tell you is the things that I've learned from books that I've read.</p>
Maybe they're Russians/Chinese/Mongolian all mixed together. They came from that part of the world.</p>

I am not gonna lie I thought Native Americans were of the Native American race.....I dont really care about that stuff though.</p>
