Could you imagine ...if we got rid of the whole Latino / Hispanic stigma and reunited as indigenous people again ...wow there's a lot of us if you think about it some are totally oblivious to it
Tachi-Yaqui Metal Native-Hu'usu 666 I have never considered nor called myself Latino or Hispanic, I am native, the Spaniards are just like the white people, I am native from Mexico not a fucking Spaniard!
Tachi-Yaqui Metal Native-Hu'usu 666 Better dazz better daze thinking about those good old dayzzz. The day is upon us, OUR PEOPLE WILL STAND AS ONE ONCE AGAIN
NOT CONSENTING very true. I have only a small amount of native American ancestry. Native americans genetically come from asia. Indians as indians like Ghandi genetically come from africa.
The question isn't complicated "Are Mexicans Native American?" Are there Native indigenous people in Mexico?...Yes of course. Is Mexico part of the American continent?.. Yes obviously.. Indigenous to Americas = Native American. North or South doesn't matter.
If their tongue has been Spanish for 200 years or more, they're not Native. There's nothing Native about them. They're Spaniard larping since 1492 and it's too late to change that.
I have a friend who is from Mexico,, San Luis potosi,,, his Nick name is "Apache " ,,, he looks hardcore Native,, even my Navajo friends tells him he is Navajo!! he says no I'm Mexican!!
My ex bf's lineage is from San Luis as well and he looks full blooded native. I'm from Oklahoma and he looked more indigenous than most of the "natives" here! 😂
solreys.blogspot.com/2019/02/the-master-of-mestizo-chattel.html "The Indian is the most shunted, the most despised creature in Mexico. No mestizo will admit to Indian blood, and if the slant of the eyes of the angel of the nose is the least suggestive, the moustache is there to dispute it... The only good Indian is a rich Indian-once the Indian gains wealth he ceases to culturally be an Indian." [Paso Del Mundo, Ovid Demaris, 1971, Ch. 3, p. 43] "Classical (Pavlovian) conditioning can be done with earthworms, and operant (Skinnerian) conditioning can be conducted on rats and pigeons. But there is a third level of learning that pretty much only primates and humans are capable of, and that is what is called social learning. This third level of learning, in its most powerful form, revolves primarily around the observation and imitation of a role model. Unlike operant conditioning, in social learning it is not essential that the learner be directly reinforced in order for learning to take place. What is important in social learning is to understand the characteristics that can lead to the selection of a specific individual as a role model. The processes that make someone a desirable role model include: • Vicarious reinforcement. You see the role model being reinforced in a manner that you can experience vicariously. • Similarity to the learner. You perceive that the role model has a key trait that makes him/her similar to you. • Social power. The role model has the power to reward (but does not necessarily do so). • Status envy. You envy the role model's receipt of rewards from others." [On Killing, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, 2009, Chapter 4] "We invited the Gentile and Christian Indians to come and eat pinole and dried meat. They all came over to our side of the river. Then when they were on our shores we surrounded them by the trrops, citizens and Indian aides, and took them all prisoner... We seprarted 100 Christians from the prisoners, and at each half mile or mile these were forced on their knees in prayer and were made to understand they were going to die... each one of them received four arrows, two in front and two in each shoulder... We baptized all the (remaining Gentile) Indians and then we shot them through the shoulder. Seventy of them fell at one shot. I doubled the charge for the 30 that remained and they all fell" (A report by Jose Maria Amador, second lieutenant in the Spanish Army) [Indians of California: Past and Present, American Friends Service Committee] "Many "wild" Indians died not only in battle but from disease and starvation. A river traveler wrote in 1833: "From the head of the Sacramento to the great bend and slough of the San Joaquin we did not see more than six or eight live Indians; while large numbers of their skulls and dead bodies were to be seen under almost every shade tree near water, where the uninhabited and deserted villages had been converted into graveyards." (S.F. Cokk, op. cit., p. 16) [Indians of California: Past and Present, American Friends Service Committee]
Yes,,, my father is bronze native indigenous from mexico ... i took DNA test to prove it!... I’m not latino or Hispanic... I’m native American ... on my own indigenous continent!
Some people forget that alot of Mexican Indian tribes are federally recognized in Mexico, as the original indigenous people of Mexico. Nahuatl the Aztec language is the most widely spoken indigenous language in the Americas. A quick Google search will show you all the indigenous languages and tribes in Mexico, all of them officially recognized by the government.
Well my grandma is Apache and she already passed away but she used it tell us stories about why they end up in Monterrey Mexico because long time a go when withe people were killing natives and and black they run away and Texas was Apache land and Monterrey got different name but she said that some of ancestors stay in there long time a go, so on my mother side I'm Apache and I'm proud to be a brown skin native
I am of the Purepecha Tribe of Michoacan Mexico. We are one of hundreds of indigenious tribes registered in mexico. That is to say we are one of the few that remember our languages, customs, and history. The majority of the Mexican population belong to various indigenous tribes that lost their cultural identity as a result of the Spanish conquest. My tribe traveled from South America (Peru) to Central Mexico on a well known route. There are some similarities between my tribe the Purepecha, the Inca of Peru, and the Zuni of Arizona. Mostly in language, pottery, and metal working skills but that is to say that tribes journeyed North and South East and West spreading influence, technology, and knowledge. Most mexicans without clear defined ties or lineage to a indigenous tribe will identify as Aztec(Mexica) or Mayan. Most will not be far off in their assumptions but there are those who belong to completely different lines or at this point 3-5 different lost tribes that no longer have an identity. Despite this nearly all mexicans are proud of their Native roots. I believe the future holds great promise for all indigenous people
Listen smart ass Mexicans are taco Pancho villa cheplote. You Peruvian? You are an inco None of you have nothing to do with American Indians. Comprende?
Greetings brother I have indigenous ancestry from mexico and the south west Arizona. On my great grandparents records it says yndio nativo and mestizo nativo. I recently Met some of my apache cousins.
America is also a european name so native american is still priding europe. We are NICAN TLACA!!! Indigenous to this land. The land between the waters is what our ancestors called it. We are Nican Tlaca from Cemanahuac!!!
I, repectfully, suggest you have your husband go back and research his history. The Aztec empire were NEVER extended into the Yucatan Pennisula. That was -- and sitll is -- the land of the Maya People. If your husband says he's Nahua, the correct pronunciation is na-wa and the language is Náhuatl -- na-wat. It is the most widely spoken indigenous language here with around 1.4 million speakers. Here in Mexico, there are 89 recognized indigenous languages. Since every one pretty much looks like everyone else, the identification of indigenous -- indiígena -- is based on how one lives, dresses and speaks -- not on the color of ones skin. For census purposes, the government uses the criteria of whether one speaks the language, although there are those who self identify as indigenous who don't speak the language.
Very interesting! Thank you for the explanation! It's not easy or us, living in Europe, to well understand your history... Well, I's reading few books in my teenage years about Mezo-America (Maya, Aztec). I was smitten!!! by the fantastic, super organized societies, architecture and culture... Greetings from Hungary (East Europe).
@Adam Davila DNA test have been shown to be bunk. Some native guy sent his dogs DNA in to get tested and it matched his, there are quite a few instances that show these test are trash. Besides, I can save mr solano $100 on a silly test and tell him he's native american based on his thumbnail. Oaxcans are native americans.
Stupid, you do not get confused for Native American because you are Native American, it would be like a Nigerian said he often gets confused as being Black. I'm Zapotec from Oaxaca so people rightly ask me if I'm Native American. I am Native American, Indigenous to the American Continent.
I'm Mexican American. My ancestors were nahuatl, Yaqui and Apache. I dont belong to any tribe. But, I dont look white. I speak spanish and English. But, that does not make me European.
Sorry about how you feel about it, but, it's the Spanish part that ties you to Europe. Use your Spanish to tell those Spaniards never to come back here, they are not welcome.
There's a different term for what you're describing. It's called racial and political classification. The U.S. and Canada use a political classification (example to be federally recognized) for recognition and protection of Native Americans and their land. Mexico, central and south go by racial classification (meaning not federally recognized), but they are still ethnically/racially indigenous/Native Americans. People assume that just because you are not part of a tribe or federally recognized that some how that invalidates being Native American. This self-hatred needs to go as people should be proud of being part of a larger family across America, but instead decide to stick with European roots and that's okay too as long as you respect people's ethnicity and cultural upbringing/representation! If people want to identify as "Latinos" or "Hispanic" just because they are "European" (wannabe white) and/or speak Spanish (yikes!) then go for it! But you're also committing demographic genocide when you fill out those forms (census and what not) by failing to give your ancestors recognition too! My friends are Chinese and Japanese, and speak their languages and learned and picked it up too! Does that mean I am going to identify as Chinese/Japanese because I learned to speak their language and enjoy their food even though I clearly look indigenous/Native?! I identify as Native American because of my grandparents have Native American lineages, do rituals, and continue their practices and I've learned that as well growing up! I don't speak the language, but that doesn't make me any less Native! I will say that I did learn a tribe's numeric system, dances styles, and practices. This is because the majority of my friends are Native Americans too. I could identify as "Latino/Hispanic" all day if I wanted to, but in no way I am connected to that side other than the language and food! Even then, the food from Spain, the culture, education and architect and agriculture was heavily influenced by North African muslims called The Moors/Berbers, and Spain brought it to Mexico (pallella, empanadas, bunuelos are all from the berbers/moors!). Hell! Even my last name sounds muslim (dad is Iberian but mom is native!). LEARN YOUR HISTORY AND LINEAGES, FOLKS!!
"Consciousness, complex and subtle, can be impaired or ended by a mere stepping-up or dimming-down of any one sense intensity, which is the procedure in hypnosis. And the intensification of one sense by a new medium can hypnotize an entire community." [Understanding Media: The Extension of Man, Marshall McLuhan, 1964, Ch. 11: Number] "And how do whole communities act when conquered and enslaved? The same strategy serves them as it does the lame individual in a society of warriors. They specialize and become indispensable to their masters." [Understanding Media: The Extension of Man, Marshall McLuhan, 1964, Ch. 7: Challenge and Collapse]
"Society is organized, indeed, less by law than by the propensity to imitation, implying equally suggestibility, suggestion, and mental contagion. But we see every day how people use, or rather abuse, the mechanism of imitation for the purpose of personal differentiation: they are content to ape some eminent personality, some striking characteristic or mode of behaviour, thereby achieving an outward distinction from the circle in which they move. We could almost say that as a punishment for this the uniformity of their minds with those of their neighbours, already real enough, is intensified into an unconscious, compulsive bondage to the environment. As a rule these specious attempts at individual differentiation stiffen into a pose, and the imitator remains at the same level as he always was, only several degrees more sterile than before. To find out what is truly individual in ourselves, profound reflection is needed; and we realize how uncommonly difficult the discovery of individuality is." [Relations Between the Ego and the Unconscious, Carl Jung, 1916]
Thank you for the information and I agree with you, just like my tribe Navajo we are not all Navajo, we are mixed with other nationality. When you married into the Navajo nation you become part of the Navajo nation.
I'm sorry but Mexican is not Spanish culture.... I do understand your point. The government that you are born into sets the standards to races. No more need for an explanation, In our eyes we are brothers weather you are from Alaska Canada central or south America (Brazil) and others
For those who don’t know, Native American Indians have to be born in the United States either before their territory became part of the US or during. If you have a US birth certificate, you have to show your lineage through each family member to the roll call or census. I showed my through Me, Dad, grandmothers and death. My great certificate. My great uncle, cousins and my great grandparents were registered. You can get the roll call from the tribe leaders. Yes, some tribe families were renamed by their captors and have English and Spanish sir names. Johnsons, Jones, Martinez etc. Apaches, Northern Arizona. Yaqui, Southern Arizona. Etc.
Native Americans is a race of people from all the Americas. It’s like Asians From China or from Japan. It’s Different countries but same race. Mexicans we are native Americans also but most of us are mix with European because of Spanish conquest. If you check most Mexicans DNA we have about half Or more Native American. We also recognize we are Indian because we don’t forget our ancestors, you can see it in our foods and traditions. Our Spanish dialect is full of Nahuatl words.
The indigenous peoples of Mexico are different from the indigenous peoples of America. These are the indigenous peoples of Mexico and their land was taken, not that the indigenous peoples of America moved to live in Mexico after their land was occupied.,
These may be of the same race as the Native Americans, and they came from one place, but they divided, and some of them went to live in Mexico and some went to live in America, but this does not mean that they are not the original inhabitants of Mexico, they lived here and not that they moved from America to Mexico after the occupation of their land.,,
Between 1492-1600 the Indigenous population reduced by 95% and the majority of the 5% that remained lived in Mesoamerica and South America. Meaning by the time the Anglos arrived up North this place was practically already a sparsely populated post apocalyptic environment. Although it wasn't that way before Columbus. During that 100 years, the majority of Spanish colonials admixed with Natives and assimilated them out of their culture into Spanish culture even before other European arrivals. This is a 500 year old divergence from widespread Native culture in Mesoamerica.
Disregard it for a moment. Look in your paperwork. See what kinda tribal affiliation is in your heritage. If it's not anywhere to be found, it's a collective admixture, so large amounts of Spanish & Mesoamerican admixed at one point and then their descendants mostly admixed with each other. Meaning they haven't been Mesoamerican by culture in a long time, but they kept the blood due to genetic isolation of the mixed groups. Which is still valid, it's just you're looking at a 400-500 year divergence from your pre-Spanish culture, that's all. Whereas the people on Reservations still have their pre-European culture today.
So if you can't find indication of tribal affiliation in U.S. or Mexico in your ancestry, I don't think so, I'm sorry. It means you diverged from the culture much much further back in time.

about 20%+ of México is american indian. a lot of mainland latin american countries have large indigenous populations, but the majority of latin americans are mixed, not just indian.
if some american tribes have a blood quantum of 25%, then how does that not apply to groups located in mexico and central america too. upwards of 70%+ of Mexicans have more than 25% native blood.
Puerto Ricans also have indigenous DNA and culture. My Arawak ancestors discovered Columbus when he was found lost and ended up on our islands. Waiko Arawak
yes, mexians are native americans mixed with europeans... in using the term indian (it means indigenuos of one place) so, africans are indians frol africa, americans (real americans: nagive americans) are american indians
What about a modern Mexican like he’s not part of a tribe or anything but he’s ethics is Hispanic but that’s not a race, would he still be considered Native American ?
If you can trace what tribal community in Mexico your ancestry came from and their languages then yes: You're a valid Native Mexican. If you have Native blood and no evidence of how it got there and everyone only spoke Spanish since 1492 then no. That's no different than a random non-native white person taking a DNA test and being lucky.
Nando Budd nah native Mexican is right you never hear Cherokee pretending they are aztecs be proud to be mestizo or castizo or whatever stop trying to steal native culture for social justice brownie points.
Spencer Allen dude just Shut the fuck up your probably just a white boy who doesn’t know a damm thing about indigenous history, America is a continent not a country and how are we trying to steal native culture when thats our culture as well 😂🤷🏽♂️. Saying Mexicans aren’t native Americans is like saying black people aren’t African get the fuck outta here.
Native American means U.S. Reservations. If you guys can't respect that, I don't want you in my country, simple as that, so respect the Native people who were here before you because it's not you. You came here by Spaniard.
People native to this continent are Native American, India's are from India, beautiful country which name derives from the Indus river, Indus, India, there is no Indus river in America
Africa native people are of the black race. Europe’s native people are of the white race, East Asia native people are of the slanted eyes, yellow race, which it is incorrect to called them that now. West Asia, have the light brown skin, hairy people like the Arabs, Jewish, Armenians, and so on. Central Asia, native people are the ones from India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and so on. Therefore, to called someone Asian, which Asian, the people from India, or Saudi Arabia, or China, or Israel, all of them are from Asia, but with different physical features. America, the continent, made up of the Caribbean, Central, South, and North America, native people are the Coppertone skin, Native American Indians, of many different ethnic groups. Mexico is a country, Mexicans are a nationality, not a race, is common sense. The Native people of Mexico, are of course, the Native American Indians, of many different ethnic groups, who spoke, and speak, many different languages. The races in the country of Mexico today, belong mostly to 3 different racial groups, the mix, or mestizos, who are Mexicans that are part Native American Indian, and part white European. That group is followed by the Native American Indians from Mexico, with no mix. And lastly, the minority of white European descent Mexicans, mostly descendants of people from Spain, but also from other European countries, very visible in the Mexican soap operas.
There is no modern native person that calls himself Aztec, Nahuas do not call themselves aztec and there is no tribe called that in Mexico. There's a reason it's complicated and that's because different indigenous communities see indigenous belonging differently but none are based on race. In the US different tribes have enrollment standards such as family lineage even if you don't live in a community or speak the language. In mexico the majority of indigenous communities only consider indigenous people those that live in the community and speak the language. If your parents or grandparents lived there but you didn't, you are no longer indigenous. I'm not saying any of these ways is more or less valid but they are different. Racially it's different because most Mexicans have some Indigenous blood but that doesn't get you in a tribe or an Indigenous community in either country.
He or she used to call this land as a home is mother language who taught to speak them on this way of emotions after seeing their many suffering and over ruled by strong man types mostly white when they are in their real power and at this point there is no other language then this work. Saying I am attached to it like you do and I live my land that is connected to my ancestors. A strong man is that who don’t seek these kind of empathy rather provide justice, justifiy, rule with strong justice and provide rights or grant equal right, identity as only these people are only one who is of and great link despite any present progress and situations. This purify land soil, water , nature and our self souls.. that is how people has presented when they saying they are people of justice what they called god world. One is equal right, first human right to all is right to live and live with justice no matter where you go and what kind of nation or group of people you live. You will be justified or get real justice.. this is god world I think in any kind of religious term or human term or great teaching or whatever word we used to explain. No matter what changes comes in this earth , no matter how hard or easy the life go in future, if we all monk on things that right to live and right to justice. This is already god world. Once justice is existed, no matter how much weapons or ho many disasters or how far we left behind. Our humankind’s or man kind with loyal hearts will never ever dies . Therefore these things should be supreme teaching if all kind of of people and freedom. Freedom ultimate truths in the earth, doing right things, right to live and full justice without any unn😅hurdles
HISPANIC: Wrong ugly term invented by Spaniards with the purpouse to own America continent under Spanish Kingdom: it's used in modern days by nationalistic Spanish people rancoroous against Anglo culture, and by white people from the States trying to get cultural roots LATINO: Wrong ugly term invented in XIX century by Napoleon III to convince mexicans to fight against the USA and accept to being a french colony. It's used in modern days by nationalistic Central and South american people rancoroous against Anglo culture, and by white people from the States trying to get cultural roots (again) NAHUA: A generic name used to design native tribes who share language roots, including Mexica, tlaxcalan and many other tribes who inhabited Mexican territory AZTEC: A questionable term used during spanish colony by chroniclers to name a mythological origin to which ancient Mexica renounced to become Mexica. Its used by mexican who don't know their own culture very well MEXICA: The name which was used by people from ancient Mexico-Tenochtitlan for name themselves. It probably refers to the lake and marsh where they found the sign profeticed by their gods to find their promised land: an eagle standing on a prickly pear and devouring a serpent MEXICAN: Person from México. It derivates from the Mexican mythos identifying actual Mexico with the Mexica, the main and biggest native civilization (but not the only one) who inhabited the country, and identifying it's people as native american not only for pride, but just because 90% of mexican people have strong native genetic ancestry In Mexico practically nobody uses the terms "Hispanic" nor "Latino" because the history of Mexico is very unwilling about european stuff, and we don't use "aztec" very often because we alll know the ancient history of the Mexica
The term Hispanic was not created by Spaniards. That term comes from President Nixon's Administration. It's nice to see that you are so passionate about your argument but you might want to get your facts straight before you leave a wall of text. You clearly don't know what you are talking about.
just call them by their native name if there natives have to speak your native language know your culture & tradition if u think your native & and the word Mexican is a Spanish word
Being indigenous or having Native American heritage doesn’t equate or depend on belonging to a specific tribe or any tribe. Being indigenous is in our blood, whether you’re full blood or mixed. Whether you practice or don’t practice native culture. It’s within us, literally. Whether you’re in North, Central, or South America, it doesn’t matter. Borders are lines made by our colonizers. Our native culture is deeply imbedded in our own culture today if you open your eyes. From the foods we eat, to the names of our lands, to even the words we use, and more.
You don't have any right to claim to be indigenous if you can't trace a specific tribe. Otherwise you're just no different than a random White person who took a DNA test and got lucky 😂
If you can't trace CITIZENSHIP to a specific tribe you're not anything. I'm sorry. I want to be empathetic to you but you're making it difficult by being so objectively wrong & stupid on purpose.
This is equivalent to a non-Native White person taking a DNA test and getting lucky. If you can't trace citizenship to a tribal community, you're not anything.
I know this is a late comment, but I think it's safe to say most of Mexico has a high indigenous population based on what I've seen. The indigenous population is definitely a lot higher in Mexico than in America.
No. Before colonization, tribes had specific territory and Native Peoples did not identify as Native American or indigenous. Natives identified themselves to specific tribes. Some tribes warred with other tribes for control over territory. In Mexico the Aztecs warred with Mixtecs and other tribes. The Iroquois warred with the Algonquin tribes. Identification of Native American, Indian or Indigenous is a result of Pan American Indianism and the boarder school experience and reservation experience were the US was actively stripping Native people of their specific Native Identity as Zuni, as Navajo as Lakota... by taking away their dress, their language and believes. Take all that away you have Indians or Native Americans.

@@FaberGeronimo I did not listen to the video until the end. I discovered that America, which is the country of the Native Americans, was divided, and Mexico was part of America, and not that the indigenous people moved, some to Mexico and some to America.

@@JonDoeNeace It is not a European culture, sure it may have some Spanish influence but Mexicans literally have a holiday that has indigenous roots, dia de los Muertos.
The Most High God created three Genomes, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. All three of Noah's sons, all three of which were black, If you being a black father and your wife is black, aren't your children going to be black unless God did something special. Well Ham's son Noah's Grandson had a curse placed on him by Noah, That curse was performed by The Most High God, that curse was Leprosy, Leviticus 14:34, Leprosy today is called Vitiligo, and a clean leper is a Albinos, it deals with Melanin, some Albinos have more melanin than others.
Why is there Mesoamerican DNA in North American Natives ? Well because the Mesoamerican was the first people we mixed with before the Whites. So that is definitely important.
So trust me, I WANT to give it to you that you're all Indigenous by blood because my Native ancestry had the same blood. But not at my people's expense, you're going to weaponize it against reservation Natives, yes?
No Hispanics are not native americans they are a completely different culture of people I would know because I am Hispanic A lot of the natives from the Hispanic culture come from Mexico yes they are considered natives but they are not native Americans They are a complete different ethnic group We don't consider ourselves native americans for the simple reason that the cultures have a very different way of living And on top of that Cultural beliefs and views on the world are completely different yes we are native to some degree but we are not related to native Americans Are related to natives of Mexico and South America the natives there are completely different from Native Americans from North America If anyone doesn't know this by now you should really go educate yourself and take a class. Us latinos and hispanics don't consider ourselves Natice Americans because Come from a different lineage of people and ancestry.
Are you ashamed of your brown skin? Native people looked and acted very similar from Alaska to Argentina until the Europeans and blacks came to the continent.
Hispanic is a culture not a ethnic group Latino is a white race of people who reside in Portugal Spain France and Italy hope this clarifies a lot a real native of Mexico would not have any Hispanic culture speak the native. Language practice native. Religion not chatholic nor hardly speak Spanish but it’s native. Language primalry
As far as your friends husband what tribe did he say he was from and where it was from if you dont mind me asking.......Nobody claims to be Aztec(Native American Mexican Indian what ever) any more....Aztec(native American) are not mixed. Folks say mexico not Aztlan.....Most Aztecs got killed while fighting(kind hard to fight while wearing a jag print thong and a poision tip arrow.....against a guy in metal ...lol.....and to break it down even further no one says they are "Acolhua , Tepaneca ,Culhua , Chalca , Xochimilca , Tlahuica , Matlatzinca , Tlaxcalans , Huexotzinca , Malinalca , and Mexica......all tribes that formed the Aztec Emp.
I think she said Nahuatl or Nahua. Most Aztecs died from Spanish diseases and to the weapon of other Indians that were allied to the Spaniards. The Indian allies of the Spanish, or Indian conquistadors, did most of the fighting and killing for the Spaniards.
Yeah the Aztecs were ethnically a Nahua people (who spoke Nahuatl). Back in those days, there were different nations and tribes made up of Nahua people, some of them quickly joined the Spanish like the Tlaxcatlans to fight the Aztec empire. Once the Aztec empire fell, a lot of Nahua people once part of the Aztecs would end up joining the Spanish and Tlaxcala to help fight and defeat other native nations in Northern and Southern Mexico, Central America, and the US southwest. It wasn't really only a Spanish conquest but a Nahuatl one as well, this why throughout Mexico, Central America (in places where Nahuatl originally had little to no presences), there are tons of place names that ended up being in Nahuatl (probably more than in Spanish). The Nahuas allied to the Spanish originally had a lot of power in the early Spanish colonial days but as the centuries passed, their population shrank and the Spanish and Mestizo population grew (and eventually overshadow the Nahua elites). The Nahuas are still around, speaking variations of the Nahuatl languages, some probably had ancestors who were part of the Aztec empire and ancestors who joined the Spanish to defeat the Aztecs.
mmm i met alot of people that do claim Azteca lineage, recognizing a prevalent mestizo identity... an identity that shares cultural connections to the various Nahua tribes of Mexico, but its a very broad term. Nahua speaking communities still exist, for instance the Mexicanero of Durango, its a nahua speaking community . BTW Azteca means, those from Aztlan... the origin story of most Nahua people but each Nahua community had its own unique name
Everyone with native blood in the Americas it is Native American. It doesn't mean thet all from Mexico are native American. Only the mexicans with native blood. Or native looking.
Blood and culture aren't equal. Native blood also isn't monolithic. Different groups have different haplogroups that define that particular strand and then even those groups have admixed with each other in pre colonial era. And then admixed with European and others during colonial and post colonial era as well, depending on the specific group.

Either you are Mexican loyal to God, México and Mexicans or you are American loyal to them. Unless one of your parents is a White American. Either you are with us or against us.
While you could have Aztec ancestry, the majority of Mexican and Latino Indigenous are from other tribes other then, I'm specifically a possible mix of northern New Mexican Pueblo people that spoke a completely different language then most natives and some of the tribes from northern Mexico
So not all Native Mexicans were Aztec, but all of them were part of the Aztec Empire in some way. Because that's the political structure of the time and region. You see?
Well, I am a descendant of the Choctaw & Chickasaw Nation, I feel there is a connection with Native Mexicans because the first DNA admixture into those communities BEFORE 1492 came from Mesoamerica. Meaning the first wave of Mesoamerican migrants having descendants in North America with North Americans is before 1492. But sometimes your people don't respect certain things about U.S. Reservation Native American descendants that really bother me and makes me feel like would be an obstacle in us getting to know each other.
@@GentiluomoStraniero Before the European, our people from both continents admixed with each other, there's evidence of it in the DNA of American Indian tribal citizens. So before we had descendants by any Spanish, White, English/French, or European people, our ancestors objectively admixed with Native Mexicans from before that. So yes, I do think there's certain things that are important. But I need people to understand what it all means. Citizenship, blood, culture, language, heritage, it doesn't all have the same implications. All or most Mexicans are Native by blood, but it's just like how all Black people are African by blood but they're not culturally Bantu/Mende/Igbo/etc. All I want is for the 1% descendants of U.S. Reservation Indians and the 7% descendants of Mexicans with Native tongues to be considered separate to Spanish speaking with no tribal affiliation. Because 90% of Mexico has the blood in some form, if that and this are the same then why do the 8% exist? That's all I'm expecting anyone to be empathetic towards. With that respect I could say of course all or most Mexicans are Native descendants, but not if it's being weaponized, is all.
The indigenous peoples of Mexico are different from the indigenous peoples of America. These are the indigenous peoples of Mexico and their land was taken, not that the indigenous peoples of America moved to live in Mexico after their land was occupied.

Antie before you run your mouth check that your statements are true Aztecas are not from the Yucatan peninsula they originated in center of Mexico please don't be saying lies
Could you imagine ...if we got rid of the whole Latino / Hispanic stigma and reunited as indigenous people again ...wow there's a lot of us if you think about it some are totally oblivious to it

The question isn't complicated "Are Mexicans Native American?"
Are there Native indigenous people in Mexico?...Yes of course.
Is Mexico part of the American continent?.. Yes obviously..
Indigenous to Americas = Native American. North or South doesn't matter.
He told the truth we all native
Nope. Because you cant allow these Spaniards to redefine these definitions.
If their tongue has been Spanish for 200 years or more, they're not Native. There's nothing Native about them. They're Spaniard larping since 1492 and it's too late to change that.
I have a friend who is from Mexico,, San Luis potosi,,, his Nick name is "Apache " ,,, he looks hardcore Native,, even my Navajo friends tells him he is Navajo!! he says no I'm Mexican!!
My ex bf's lineage is from San Luis as well and he looks full blooded native. I'm from Oklahoma and he looked more indigenous than most of the "natives" here! 😂

"The Indian is the most shunted, the most despised creature in Mexico. No mestizo will admit to Indian blood, and if the slant of the eyes of the angel of the nose is the least suggestive, the moustache is there to dispute it...
The only good Indian is a rich Indian-once the Indian gains wealth he ceases to culturally be an Indian."

"Classical (Pavlovian) conditioning can be done with earthworms, and operant (Skinnerian) conditioning can be conducted on rats and pigeons. But there is a third level of learning that pretty much only primates and humans are capable of, and that is what is called social learning.
This third level of learning, in its most powerful form, revolves primarily around the observation and imitation of a role model. Unlike operant conditioning, in social learning it is not essential that the learner be directly reinforced in order for learning to take place. What is important in social learning is to understand the characteristics that can lead to the selection of a specific individual as a role model.
The processes that make someone a desirable role model include:
• Vicarious reinforcement. You see the role model being reinforced in a manner that you can experience vicariously.
• Similarity to the learner. You perceive that the role model has a key trait that makes him/her similar to you.
• Social power. The role model has the power to reward (but does not necessarily do so).
• Status envy. You envy the role model's receipt of rewards from others."
[On Killing, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, 2009, Chapter 4]
"We invited the Gentile and Christian Indians to come and eat pinole and dried meat. They all came over to our side of the river. Then when they were on our shores we surrounded them by the trrops, citizens and Indian aides, and took them all prisoner... We seprarted 100 Christians from the prisoners, and at each half mile or mile these were forced on their knees in prayer and were made to understand they were going to die... each one of them received four arrows, two in front and two in each shoulder... We baptized all the (remaining Gentile) Indians and then we shot them through the shoulder. Seventy of them fell at one shot. I doubled the charge for the 30 that remained and they all fell"
(A report by Jose Maria Amador, second lieutenant in the Spanish Army)
[Indians of California: Past and Present, American Friends Service Committee]
"Many "wild" Indians died not only in battle but from disease and starvation. A river traveler wrote in 1833: "From the head of the Sacramento to the great bend and slough of the San Joaquin we did not see more than six or eight live Indians; while large numbers of their skulls and dead bodies were to be seen under almost every shade tree near water, where the uninhabited and deserted villages had been converted into graveyards."

Grow a brain buddy. Native American means U.S. Reservation. Your blood comes from citizens of foreign countries.
When was your last ancestor who didn't speak Spanish? If it's 1492 you're not anything, I'm sorry.

Some people forget that alot of Mexican Indian tribes are federally recognized in Mexico, as the original indigenous people of Mexico. Nahuatl the Aztec language is the most widely spoken indigenous language in the Americas. A quick Google search will show you all the indigenous languages and tribes in Mexico, all of them officially recognized by the government.
7% is not a lot but it is some.
Well my grandma is Apache and she already passed away but she used it tell us stories about why they end up in Monterrey Mexico because long time a go when withe people were killing natives and and black they run away and Texas was Apache land and Monterrey got different name but she said that some of ancestors stay in there long time a go, so on my mother side I'm Apache and I'm proud to be a brown skin native
jako garatti texas was NOT apache land! We were from the sonoran desert area. Learn your history if your gonna claim apache blood!
I just told what my grandma told us
Apache actually did have land in Texas at some point.
Cameron thank you
Np happy to educate.
I am of the Purepecha Tribe of Michoacan Mexico. We are one of hundreds of indigenious tribes registered in mexico. That is to say we are one of the few that remember our languages, customs, and history. The majority of the Mexican population belong to various indigenous tribes that lost their cultural identity as a result of the Spanish conquest. My tribe traveled from South America (Peru) to Central Mexico on a well known route. There are some similarities between my tribe the Purepecha, the Inca of Peru, and the Zuni of Arizona. Mostly in language, pottery, and metal working skills but that is to say that tribes journeyed North and South East and West spreading influence, technology, and knowledge. Most mexicans without clear defined ties or lineage to a indigenous tribe will identify as Aztec(Mexica) or Mayan. Most will not be far off in their assumptions but there are those who belong to completely different lines or at this point 3-5 different lost tribes that no longer have an identity. Despite this nearly all mexicans are proud of their Native roots. I believe the future holds great promise for all indigenous people
Listen smart ass
Mexicans are taco Pancho villa cheplote.
You Peruvian?
You are an inco
None of you have nothing to do with American Indians.

Are there any books that talk more about the links between Indigenous people in Mexico and Indigenous people in the United States?
Awesome your language makes you who you are you identity, culture tradition
I, repectfully, suggest you have your husband go back and research his history. The Aztec empire were NEVER extended into the Yucatan Pennisula. That was -- and sitll is -- the land of the Maya People. If your husband says he's Nahua, the correct pronunciation is na-wa and the language is Náhuatl -- na-wat. It is the most widely spoken indigenous language here with around 1.4 million speakers.
Here in Mexico, there are 89 recognized indigenous languages. Since every one pretty much looks like everyone else, the identification of indigenous -- indiígena -- is based on how one lives, dresses and speaks -- not on the color of ones skin. For census purposes, the government uses the criteria of whether one speaks the language, although there are those who self identify as indigenous who don't speak the language.
Thank you for posting this I was confused when she said the Aztec's lived in the Yucatan Pennisula.
Beautifully explained 💜
Very interesting! Thank you for the explanation!
It's not easy or us, living in Europe, to well understand your history... Well, I's reading few books in my teenage years about Mezo-America (Maya, Aztec). I was smitten!!! by the fantastic, super organized societies, architecture and culture...
Greetings from Hungary (East Europe).
My grandparents from mexico came from Chuchumecca tribe
My parents are from oaxaca...i often get confused for native american
because you are. Where is the confusion?
@Adam Davila DNA test have been shown to be bunk. Some native guy sent his dogs DNA in to get tested and it matched his, there are quite a few instances that show these test are trash. Besides, I can save mr solano $100 on a silly test and tell him he's native american based on his thumbnail. Oaxcans are native americans.
Stupid, you do not get confused for Native American because you are Native American, it would be like a Nigerian said he often gets confused as being Black. I'm Zapotec from Oaxaca so people rightly ask me if I'm Native American. I am Native American, Indigenous to the American Continent.
You are most likely native by blood.
@@chingonbassStop trying to confuse this person.
Nahua from the Yucatan?
mmm something doesn't add up.
most probably Mayan, not Nahuatl right?
Anthony J. carrera yes
I am Mayan and Aztec from my father side and apache and spaniard from my mother's side, we are native Americans. Mexican is just the nationality.
I'm Mexican American. My ancestors were nahuatl, Yaqui and Apache. I dont belong to any tribe. But, I dont look white. I speak spanish and English. But, that does not make me European.
Sorry about how you feel about it, but, it's the Spanish part that ties you to Europe. Use your Spanish to tell those Spaniards never to come back here, they are not welcome.
There's a different term for what you're describing. It's called racial and political classification.
The U.S. and Canada use a political classification (example to be federally recognized) for recognition and protection of Native Americans and their land.
Mexico, central and south go by racial classification (meaning not federally recognized), but they are still ethnically/racially indigenous/Native Americans.
People assume that just because you are not part of a tribe or federally recognized that some how that invalidates being Native American. This self-hatred needs to go as people should be proud of being part of a larger family across America, but instead decide to stick with European roots and that's okay too as long as you respect people's ethnicity and cultural upbringing/representation!
If people want to identify as "Latinos" or "Hispanic" just because they are "European" (wannabe white) and/or speak Spanish (yikes!) then go for it! But you're also committing demographic genocide when you fill out those forms (census and what not) by failing to give your ancestors recognition too!
My friends are Chinese and Japanese, and speak their languages and learned and picked it up too! Does that mean I am going to identify as Chinese/Japanese because I learned to speak their language and enjoy their food even though I clearly look indigenous/Native?!
I identify as Native American because of my grandparents have Native American lineages, do rituals, and continue their practices and I've learned that as well growing up! I don't speak the language, but that doesn't make me any less Native! I will say that I did learn a tribe's numeric system, dances styles, and practices. This is because the majority of my friends are Native Americans too.
I could identify as "Latino/Hispanic" all day if I wanted to, but in no way I am connected to that side other than the language and food! Even then, the food from Spain, the culture, education and architect and agriculture was heavily influenced by North African muslims called The Moors/Berbers, and Spain brought it to Mexico (pallella, empanadas, bunuelos are all from the berbers/moors!). Hell! Even my last name sounds muslim (dad is Iberian but mom is native!).

"Society is organized, indeed, less by law than by the propensity to imitation, implying equally suggestibility, suggestion, and mental contagion. But we see every day how people use, or rather abuse, the mechanism of imitation for the purpose of personal differentiation: they are content to ape some eminent personality, some striking characteristic or mode of behaviour, thereby achieving an outward distinction from the circle in which they move. We could almost say that as a punishment for this the uniformity of their minds with those of their neighbours, already real enough, is intensified into an unconscious, compulsive bondage to the environment. As a rule these specious attempts at individual differentiation stiffen into a pose, and the imitator remains at the same level as he always was, only several degrees more sterile than before. To find out what is truly individual in ourselves, profound reflection is needed; and we realize how uncommonly difficult the discovery of individuality is."

Thank you for your straight answer beautiful Zuni lady
For those who don’t know, Native American Indians have to be born in the United States either before their territory became part of the US or during. If you have a US birth certificate, you have to show your lineage through each family member to the roll call or census. I showed my through Me, Dad, grandmothers and death. My great certificate. My great uncle, cousins and my great grandparents were registered. You can get the roll call from the tribe leaders. Yes, some tribe families were renamed by their captors and have English and Spanish sir names. Johnsons, Jones, Martinez etc. Apaches, Northern Arizona. Yaqui, Southern Arizona. Etc.
I hear you. But not the same thing. Legal status is different than genetic, cultural, and ancestral identification.
Yucatan peninsula belongs to the Maya research it delicately, don't get wrong. The Aztec reign the center of Mexico.
My biggest numbers are Nauha, then Otomi and little Iberian. I look very native.
Mexico is in North America
Native Americans is a race of people from all the Americas. It’s like Asians From China or from Japan. It’s Different countries but same race. Mexicans we are native Americans also but most of us are mix with European because of Spanish conquest. If you check most Mexicans DNA we have about half Or more Native American. We also recognize we are Indian because we don’t forget our ancestors, you can see it in our foods and traditions. Our Spanish dialect is full of Nahuatl words.
The indigenous peoples of Mexico are different from the indigenous peoples of America. These are the indigenous peoples of Mexico and their land was taken, not that the indigenous peoples of America moved to live in Mexico after their land was occupied.,
These may be of the same race as the Native Americans, and they came from one place, but they divided, and some of them went to live in Mexico and some went to live in America, but this does not mean that they are not the original inhabitants of Mexico, they lived here and not that they moved from America to Mexico after the occupation of their land.,,
Went did they start speaking Spanish with the movement from north to south
Between 1492-1600 the Indigenous population reduced by 95% and the majority of the 5% that remained lived in Mesoamerica and South America. Meaning by the time the Anglos arrived up North this place was practically already a sparsely populated post apocalyptic environment. Although it wasn't that way before Columbus.
During that 100 years, the majority of Spanish colonials admixed with Natives and assimilated them out of their culture into Spanish culture even before other European arrivals.
This is a 500 year old divergence from widespread Native culture in Mesoamerica.
Someone help me am i Mexican or not it says I’m 56 percent indigenous Americas -Mexico ??? What’s that Hispanic or not Hispanic
@Grayson Collins omg thank you for letting me know where can i go to see how my culture is
Your both native/hispanic or latin
Disregard it for a moment. Look in your paperwork. See what kinda tribal affiliation is in your heritage. If it's not anywhere to be found, it's a collective admixture, so large amounts of Spanish & Mesoamerican admixed at one point and then their descendants mostly admixed with each other. Meaning they haven't been Mesoamerican by culture in a long time, but they kept the blood due to genetic isolation of the mixed groups. Which is still valid, it's just you're looking at a 400-500 year divergence from your pre-Spanish culture, that's all. Whereas the people on Reservations still have their pre-European culture today.
So if you can't find indication of tribal affiliation in U.S. or Mexico in your ancestry, I don't think so, I'm sorry. It means you diverged from the culture much much further back in time.
Very good answer.

about 20%+ of México is american indian. a lot of mainland latin american countries have large indigenous populations, but the majority of latin americans are mixed, not just indian.
if some american tribes have a blood quantum of 25%, then how does that not apply to groups located in mexico and central america too. upwards of 70%+ of Mexicans have more than 25% native blood.
According to gov statistics? It's probably much higher.

Native American means U.S. Reservations. If you guys can't respect that, I don't want you in my country, simple as that, so respect the Native people who were here before you because it's not you. You came here by Spaniard.
I guess the answer no. Because their features, culture, etc speak for themselves.
People native to this continent are Native American, India's are from India, beautiful country which name derives from the Indus river, Indus, India, there is no Indus river in America
PEOPLE ARE HELD TO ANOTHER STANDERED THEN WHAT GOVERNMENTS DO................................
Africa native people are of the black race. Europe’s native people are of the white race, East Asia native people are of the slanted eyes, yellow race, which it is incorrect to called them that now. West Asia, have the light brown skin, hairy people like the Arabs, Jewish, Armenians, and so on. Central Asia, native people are the ones from India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and so on. Therefore, to called someone Asian, which Asian, the people from India, or Saudi Arabia, or China, or Israel, all of them are from Asia, but with different physical features. America, the continent, made up of the Caribbean, Central, South, and North America, native people are the Coppertone skin, Native American Indians, of many different ethnic groups. Mexico is a country, Mexicans are a nationality, not a race, is common sense. The Native people of Mexico, are of course, the Native American Indians, of many different ethnic groups, who spoke, and speak, many different languages. The races in the country of Mexico today, belong mostly to 3 different racial groups, the mix, or mestizos, who are Mexicans that are part Native American Indian, and part white European. That group is followed by the Native American Indians from Mexico, with no mix. And lastly, the minority of white European descent Mexicans, mostly descendants of people from Spain, but also from other European countries, very visible in the Mexican soap operas.
There is no modern native person that calls himself Aztec, Nahuas do not call themselves aztec and there is no tribe called that in Mexico. There's a reason it's complicated and that's because different indigenous communities see indigenous belonging differently but none are based on race. In the US different tribes have enrollment standards such as family lineage even if you don't live in a community or speak the language. In mexico the majority of indigenous communities only consider indigenous people those that live in the community and speak the language. If your parents or grandparents lived there but you didn't, you are no longer indigenous. I'm not saying any of these ways is more or less valid but they are different. Racially it's different because most Mexicans have some Indigenous blood but that doesn't get you in a tribe or an Indigenous community in either country.
I am half Aztec and spaniel some wife folks think I am spaniel because I speak Spanish

He or she used to call this land as a home is mother language who taught to speak them on this way of emotions after seeing their many suffering and over ruled by strong man types mostly white when they are in their real power and at this point there is no other language then this work. Saying I am attached to it like you do and I live my land that is connected to my ancestors. A strong man is that who don’t seek these kind of empathy rather provide justice, justifiy, rule with strong justice and provide rights or grant equal right, identity as only these people are only one who is of and great link despite any present progress and situations. This purify land soil, water , nature and our self souls.. that is how people has presented when they saying they are people of justice what they called god world. One is equal right, first human right to all is right to live and live with justice no matter where you go and what kind of nation or group of people you live. You will be justified or get real justice.. this is god world I think in any kind of religious term or human term or great teaching or whatever word we used to explain. No matter what changes comes in this earth , no matter how hard or easy the life go in future, if we all monk on things that right to live and right to justice. This is already god world. Once justice is existed, no matter how much weapons or ho many disasters or how far we left behind. Our humankind’s or man kind with loyal hearts will never ever dies . Therefore these things should be supreme teaching if all kind of of people and freedom. Freedom ultimate truths in the earth, doing right things, right to live and full justice without any unn😅hurdles

LATINO: Wrong ugly term invented in XIX century by Napoleon III to convince mexicans to fight against the USA and accept to being a french colony. It's used in modern days by nationalistic Central and South american people rancoroous against Anglo culture, and by white people from the States trying to get cultural roots (again)
NAHUA: A generic name used to design native tribes who share language roots, including Mexica, tlaxcalan and many other tribes who inhabited Mexican territory
AZTEC: A questionable term used during spanish colony by chroniclers to name a mythological origin to which ancient Mexica renounced to become Mexica. Its used by mexican who don't know their own culture very well
MEXICA: The name which was used by people from ancient Mexico-Tenochtitlan for name themselves. It probably refers to the lake and marsh where they found the sign profeticed by their gods to find their promised land: an eagle standing on a prickly pear and devouring a serpent
MEXICAN: Person from México. It derivates from the Mexican mythos identifying actual Mexico with the Mexica, the main and biggest native civilization (but not the only one) who inhabited the country, and identifying it's people as native american not only for pride, but just because 90% of mexican people have strong native genetic ancestry
In Mexico practically nobody uses the terms "Hispanic" nor "Latino" because the history of Mexico is very unwilling about european stuff, and we don't use "aztec" very often because we alll know the ancient history of the Mexica
"latin american" its a despective word from U.S
The term Hispanic was not created by Spaniards. That term comes from President Nixon's Administration. It's nice to see that you are so passionate about your argument but you might want to get your facts straight before you leave a wall of text. You clearly don't know what you are talking about.
Who care about the law we still is native to America
just call them by their native name if there natives have to speak your native language know your culture & tradition if u think your native & and the word Mexican is a Spanish word
The word Mexican actually comes from the Mexica (Aztecs is what they called themselves) and is not a Spanish word.
Ueah take out the european titles off of us and we are all one tribe nation.
Mexican …but i always felt like a native american.
I’m half Incan... Praise sun god *inti* !!!🌞
Being indigenous or having Native American heritage doesn’t equate or depend on belonging to a specific tribe or any tribe. Being indigenous is in our blood, whether you’re full blood or mixed. Whether you practice or don’t practice native culture. It’s within us, literally. Whether you’re in North, Central, or South America, it doesn’t matter. Borders are lines made by our colonizers. Our native culture is deeply imbedded in our own culture today if you open your eyes. From the foods we eat, to the names of our lands, to even the words we use, and more.
Yes it does.
You don't have any right to claim to be indigenous if you can't trace a specific tribe. Otherwise you're just no different than a random White person who took a DNA test and got lucky 😂
If you can't trace CITIZENSHIP to a specific tribe you're not anything. I'm sorry. I want to be empathetic to you but you're making it difficult by being so objectively wrong & stupid on purpose.
This is equivalent to a non-Native White person taking a DNA test and getting lucky. If you can't trace citizenship to a tribal community, you're not anything.
Maybe I'm being mean but I don't see how you don't know this?
60% of Mexico is mestizo (meaning a bunch of races piled into one) the other 30% is native (Yaqui, Mayo , Aztec etc) the other 10% is European .
Actually most Mexican Mestizos are around 60-80 % native American according to most DNA studies done on hundreds of individuals across Mexico
I know this is a late comment, but I think it's safe to say most of Mexico has a high indigenous population based on what I've seen. The indigenous population is definitely a lot higher in Mexico than in America.
No. Before colonization, tribes had specific territory and Native Peoples did not identify as Native American or indigenous. Natives identified themselves to specific tribes. Some tribes warred with other tribes for control over territory. In Mexico the Aztecs warred with Mixtecs and other tribes. The Iroquois warred with the Algonquin tribes. Identification of Native American, Indian or Indigenous is a result of Pan American Indianism and the boarder school experience and reservation experience were the US was actively stripping Native people of their specific Native Identity as Zuni, as Navajo as Lakota... by taking away their dress, their language and believes. Take all that away you have Indians or Native Americans.

Native Americans of Mexico
The indigenous peoples of Mexico are different from the indigenous peoples of America. These are the indigenous peoples of Mexico and their land was taken, not that the indigenous peoples of America moved to live in Mexico after their land was occupied.
These may be of the same race as the Native Americans, and they came from one place, but they divided, and some of them went to live in Mexico and some went to live in America, but this does not mean that they are not the original inhabitants of Mexico, they lived here and not that they moved from America to Mexico after the occupation of their land.

@@FaberGeronimo I did not listen to the video until the end. I discovered that America, which is the country of the Native Americans, was divided, and Mexico was part of America, and not that the indigenous people moved, some to Mexico and some to America.
all america is native american is in our blood
Nope.
Not Indian I am Mexican and native. Even if a Mexican is mixed their native were not Latino or Hispanic their white man words.
No if you can't trace a specific tribal community in Mexico it's the same as a random non-Native White taking DNA test and being lucky.
Mexico is a Native American country...
No.
It's a European culture with people in it who have Native Mexican bloodlines.

@@JonDoeNeace It is not a European culture, sure it may have some Spanish influence but Mexicans literally have a holiday that has indigenous roots, dia de los Muertos.
I’m Mexican my dna came 42% Native American from new mexico
América es un continente , no un país 👍🏻
The Most High God created three Genomes, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. All three of Noah's sons, all three of which were black, If you being a black father and your wife is black, aren't your children going to be black unless God did something special. Well Ham's son Noah's Grandson had a curse placed on him by Noah, That curse was performed by The Most High God, that curse was Leprosy, Leviticus 14:34, Leprosy today is called Vitiligo, and a clean leper is a Albinos, it deals with Melanin, some Albinos have more melanin than others.
I’m mestizo
Mexicans some are native American some white mestizos are Spanish because they come from Spanish man some mexicans are asian some Mexicans are black
Some Mexicanos dont know their true roots. You better believe it.
Why is there Mesoamerican DNA in North American Natives ? Well because the Mesoamerican was the first people we mixed with before the Whites. So that is definitely important.
So trust me, I WANT to give it to you that you're all Indigenous by blood because my Native ancestry had the same blood. But not at my people's expense, you're going to weaponize it against reservation Natives, yes?
My people had descendants by the Native Mexicans before the Whites came so, we definitely have something pre-European in common.
The yt man pushed natives west
Native Mexicans are from California no born bc I'm from Georgia and I'm won that pretty much speak English
I just know you're beautiful
No Hispanics are not native americans they are a completely different culture of people I would know because I am Hispanic A lot of the natives from the Hispanic culture come from Mexico yes they are considered natives but they are not native Americans They are a complete different ethnic group We don't consider ourselves native americans for the simple reason that the cultures have a very different way of living And on top of that Cultural beliefs and views on the world are completely different yes we are native to some degree but we are not related to native Americans Are related to natives of Mexico and South America the natives there are completely different from Native Americans from North America If anyone doesn't know this by now you should really go educate yourself and take a class. Us latinos and hispanics don't consider ourselves Natice Americans because Come from a different lineage of people and ancestry.
Are you ashamed of your brown skin? Native people looked and acted very similar from Alaska to Argentina until the Europeans and blacks came to the continent.
Azteca tribe
Bonita
Hispanic is a culture not a ethnic group Latino is a white race of people who reside in Portugal Spain France and Italy hope this clarifies a lot a real native of Mexico would not have any Hispanic culture speak the native. Language practice native. Religion not chatholic nor hardly speak Spanish but it’s native. Language primalry
As far as your friends husband what tribe did he say he was from and where it was from if you dont mind me asking.......Nobody claims to be Aztec(Native American Mexican Indian what ever) any more....Aztec(native American) are not mixed. Folks say mexico not Aztlan.....Most Aztecs got killed while fighting(kind hard to fight while wearing a jag print thong and a poision tip arrow.....against a guy in metal ...lol.....and to break it down even further no one says they are "Acolhua , Tepaneca ,Culhua , Chalca , Xochimilca , Tlahuica , Matlatzinca , Tlaxcalans , Huexotzinca , Malinalca , and Mexica......all tribes that formed the Aztec Emp.
I think she said Nahuatl or Nahua. Most Aztecs died from Spanish diseases and to the weapon of other Indians that were allied to the Spaniards. The Indian allies of the Spanish, or Indian conquistadors, did most of the fighting and killing for the Spaniards.
if im not mistaken ....Nahuatl is what was spoken by the Aztec empire ...but not a tribe that help formed the Aztec empire?
Yeah the Aztecs were ethnically a Nahua people (who spoke Nahuatl). Back in those days, there were different nations and tribes made up of Nahua people, some of them quickly joined the Spanish like the Tlaxcatlans to fight the Aztec empire. Once the Aztec empire fell, a lot of Nahua people once part of the Aztecs would end up joining the Spanish and Tlaxcala to help fight and defeat other native nations in Northern and Southern Mexico, Central America, and the US southwest. It wasn't really only a Spanish conquest but a Nahuatl one as well, this why throughout Mexico, Central America (in places where Nahuatl originally had little to no presences), there are tons of place names that ended up being in Nahuatl (probably more than in Spanish). The Nahuas allied to the Spanish originally had a lot of power in the early Spanish colonial days but as the centuries passed, their population shrank and the Spanish and Mestizo population grew (and eventually overshadow the Nahua elites). The Nahuas are still around, speaking variations of the Nahuatl languages, some probably had ancestors who were part of the Aztec empire and ancestors who joined the Spanish to defeat the Aztecs.
mmm i met alot of people that do claim Azteca lineage, recognizing a prevalent mestizo identity... an identity that shares cultural connections to the various Nahua tribes of Mexico, but its a very broad term. Nahua speaking communities still exist, for instance the Mexicanero of Durango, its a nahua speaking community . BTW Azteca means, those from Aztlan... the origin story of most Nahua people but each Nahua community had its own unique name
Nada Anilom the aztecs got wipe oír by email por and other European deseases
We are not aztec we Are Mexicah..
Everyone with native blood in the Americas it is Native American. It doesn't mean thet all from Mexico are native American. Only the mexicans with native blood. Or native looking.
So this is a discussion that needs to be had but it can't be had in three sentences.
Blood and culture aren't equal. Native blood also isn't monolithic. Different groups have different haplogroups that define that particular strand and then even those groups have admixed with each other in pre colonial era. And then admixed with European and others during colonial and post colonial era as well, depending on the specific group.
But what defines them as Native American was tribal citizenship to a Native American nation, regardless of which type of Native blood.
Aren’t we other race?
Jack Smith not all tho

Indian is Hindu western mis information
I am Mexican American, I have always been told that our ancestors are the Aztecs….
Either you are Mexican loyal to God, México and Mexicans or you are American loyal to them. Unless one of your parents is a White American. Either you are with us or against us.
While you could have Aztec ancestry, the majority of Mexican and Latino Indigenous are from other tribes other then, I'm specifically a possible mix of northern New Mexican Pueblo people that spoke a completely different language then most natives and some of the tribes from northern Mexico
You have to understand that all of the Native Mexicans, including non-Aztecs, were still subject citizens of the Aztec empire.
So Aztec was a nationality and a specific tribe. Many other tribes were part of the Aztecs as a nation.
So not all Native Mexicans were Aztec, but all of them were part of the Aztec Empire in some way. Because that's the political structure of the time and region. You see?
I'm not pure indigenous blood. I'm mixed with a few European generations. I still feel kinship and respect for our native people in the US.
Well, I am a descendant of the Choctaw & Chickasaw Nation, I feel there is a connection with Native Mexicans because the first DNA admixture into those communities BEFORE 1492 came from Mesoamerica.
Meaning the first wave of Mesoamerican migrants having descendants in North America with North Americans is before 1492.
But sometimes your people don't respect certain things about U.S. Reservation Native American descendants that really bother me and makes me feel like would be an obstacle in us getting to know each other.
@@JonDoeNeace i hear you and understand. Having respect for others goes a long way.
@@GentiluomoStraniero Before the European, our people from both continents admixed with each other, there's evidence of it in the DNA of American Indian tribal citizens. So before we had descendants by any Spanish, White, English/French, or European people, our ancestors objectively admixed with Native Mexicans from before that.
So yes, I do think there's certain things that are important. But I need people to understand what it all means. Citizenship, blood, culture, language, heritage, it doesn't all have the same implications. All or most Mexicans are Native by blood, but it's just like how all Black people are African by blood but they're not culturally Bantu/Mende/Igbo/etc.
All I want is for the 1% descendants of U.S. Reservation Indians and the 7% descendants of Mexicans with Native tongues to be considered separate to Spanish speaking with no tribal affiliation. Because 90% of Mexico has the blood in some form, if that and this are the same then why do the 8% exist?
That's all I'm expecting anyone to be empathetic towards.
With that respect I could say of course all or most Mexicans are Native descendants, but not if it's being weaponized, is all.
The indigenous peoples of Mexico are different from the indigenous peoples of America. These are the indigenous peoples of Mexico and their land was taken, not that the indigenous peoples of America moved to live in Mexico after their land was occupied.

I am telling you this lady is so stupid and I am sorry for my statements
