Yes we have always been here there is a book that I use in my lectures by Ivan Van Sertima the Linguist, “They Came Before Columbus”. There was no eradication of the indigenous people just enslavement. That is why there is a rush to remove and I say destroy/replace all the National Archives that pertain to true Indigenous American History. It must be erased.

I am going to use this thread when my classes resume as a lecture. A few people have not listened to what this young man has said and also, a few people have not read the complete thread of @blacknoireisbeauty I’m unsure if you are male or female so I apologize, but in the thread you state that those people who confirm themselves as Natives really aren’t. Exactly, they came here during the Second Ice Age. If you know history as you do there have been 5 meaning we came here during the first.

During that First Ice Age we established civilizations and cultivation. @blacknoireisbeauty you are correct we are not included in any genetic testing for this exact reason it would prove that this continent America and every other belongs to Africans,African Americans, Black,Kemetic People, however you wish to call yourself. Instead of people in the comments criticizing, critiquing, and using harsh language against your brethren read first. Going into 2025 having one another is kindness & life.
