American history, true American history, needs to be peeled back by layers to expose the truth. There is almost a manic aversion to this; why?

[@robertchandler2124]

Because a lie has been told. I uncovered it in my family tree. It appears the Indian tribes that were allowed to remain in existence had to accept ‘whiteness’ & also permitted their own to be taken as slaves as a condition moving forward. I was astonished at the amount of white looking people in these tribes esp Mattaponi. Eye opening.

Its called guilt and ego.

Oseyo…I love that you did this. But please do me a favor and do the video and explain that their is a difference between Native American and Aboriginal American Indians. Technically Native Americans are foreigners and the Aboriginal American Indians were already here when they arrived. There is much Truth in History we need to learn so all can live in Peace. I know this because I am Indigenous Aboriginal American Indian with of at least 6 Algonquin Tribes and many First Nations tribal members married into my family.✨🏹

My ancestors all from accomack and tangier and Smith Island somerset. The northams and Scott and spence all listed on moody miles files. Im related. Thier history goes way back off the Chesapeake. I was told a northam was disowned by his family for marrying a Indian at the time. Northams go way back 1600 s
