I will add to that because some tribes allowed Africans; Negros; Blacks to join them like the Seminoles in Florida. In fact, most of our "soul" food comes from some of the tribes like skillet cornbread.
BIG TIME Black and Native mixing down in Florida. Big time. Tequesta Indians also, I believe.

The vast majority of slaveholders in Native nations were mixed-bloods of predominantly cac ancestry. Nonetheless, the institution should have never been adopted in Native nations. Native nations throughout the 1600s and 1700s were also victims of the slave trade, including the Cherokees themselves.

Do you have a source or documents to back that up? :mindblown:

Is that your way of giving Native Americans a pass? :heh:

the thread title should include "of the Five Civilized Tribes" because i thought this was saying they had the most African slaves period.

If I didn't know any better, are you offended because you screw oops I man date Latina women- non Black women? We are talking about Native American tribes and Black folks and you want to express concern for Latinos? :camby: FOH
That article about Latinos terrorizing blacks is a lie

Damn.

I guess I had an inkling of this but this just made me lose my sympathy for Native.. for Indians. I'm even gonna stop wasting syllables tryna be PC.

What is the logic here? You used to sympathize for Native Americans because they were killed by cacs, and now you don't sympathize for them because they had slaves? If that is your logic, isn't the next logical step to not feel sympathy for African slaves because Africans themselves participated in the Atlantic and Arab slave trade

Well the slaves didn't enslave themselves now did they?

So I am down to just worrying about American Black people.

Whoever is down with us is welcome.
