I do think it’s funny when people are xenophobic in the US though. Like the old crotchety racist itt telling everyone how his ancestors came here and assimilated… uh no no they didn’t. There was a whole race of people here that got removed to make way for America today.
My friend's Dad was Cuban, arrived as a child in the 50's, served this country, and died. My friend can't claim that his Grandparents and Dad immigrated and assimilated because they weren't Native American?
"Um no, your Dad didn't come her and assimilate. Native Americans were here first so your statement is untrue since your ancestors didn't take on Native American culture!"
You know that people have ancestors that arrived during the industrial revolution or later right?
