  • It was very rare ...

    It was very rare that natives enslaved blacks, there is also an untold story about natives and blacks on the same side, but it is not a secret that the notion of race is not something africans or native americans did care about. Remember how aztec empire was crushed by a bunch of starven spanish conquistadores, they just conspired and beneathed the clash between different native tribes, same technique used in Africa. That's a good lesson for the future, division is death.

  • All I know is ...

    All I know is Indians practiced slavery much the same way that Africans did.Slaves had rights etc..but who knows, Indians had other Indians as slaves too, who knows how many Indians took their cues from how white people treated slavery.

    FTR Most Native never even saw a Black Slave so lets not assume they were all cool with chattel slavery.

  • No native blood? ...

    No native blood? What an awful thing to say! Have you ever been on a native first nation or actually spoken to a native person before? They've got a lot humility that people don't give them credit for. As a whitey myself, I give them and black people a lot more credit than they get in real life.

  • Guess the "braves" ...

    Guess the "braves" weren't as friendly to we Africans as many think. So sad...our people have been taken advantage of on many fronts. Oh well, guess I'll search out my ancestry now. I just hope there's no native blood. T_T

    I agree outthetube. Take the DNA test all the way back. Not just back to the american ancestry, but back to our African ancestry.
