“All the Real Indians Died Off”: And 20 Other Myths About Native Americans

21 myths about American Indians debunked

Authors Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz and Dina Gilio-Whitaker have 4.7 out of 5 stars with 380 ratings. This book is part of: Myths Made in America (a series of nine books).

This book unpacks the 21 most common myths and misconceptions about Native Americans.

In this enlightening book, scholars and activists Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz and Dina Gilio-Whitaker tackle a wide range of myths about Native American culture and history that have misinformed generations.

Tracing how these ideas evolved, and drawing from history, the authors disrupt long-held and enduring myths such as:

• 

  The classic history explainer

  “Columbus discovered America”
• “Thanksgiving proves the Indians welcomed Pilgrims”
• “Indians were savage and warlike”
• “Europeans brought civilization to backward Indians”
• “The United States did not have a policy of genocide”
• “Sports mascots honor Native Americans”
• “Most Indians are on government welfare”
• “Indian casinos make them all rich”
• “Indians are naturally predisposed to alcohol”

We set the record straight for everyone to know

Each chapter deftly shows how these myths are rooted in the fears and prejudice of invading European settlers and in the larger political agendas of a settler colonial state aimed at acquiring Indigenous land and tied to narratives of erasure and disappearance.

Accessibly written and revelatory, “All the Real Indians Died Off” challenges readers to rethink what they have been taught about Native Americans and history. More

Indigenous Peoples' Day 2024 (10/12-19)

.

Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz said it best.

There comes a time when we must honor, rejoice, and celebrate the people who came before us, who were stewards of the land and its animals. That day is now called Indigenous Peoples' Day (second Monday each October) in the U.S., or at least parts of it.

• Whose land was this land? Native-Land.ca (our homes are on native land, and this website says who they were). Whose land did this used to be before our slow genocide on the Indigenous peoples?

An Inglorious Columbus (1885)

Many still cling to the biased past that held up genocidal crypto-Sephardic Jew (Spanish Converso), who was not an Italian. Not Italian? What was he then? He is buried in Spain; his grave was dug up, and his corpse was tested, showing that he was Spanish. As the discoverer of "America," though he only made it as far as the Caribbean and turned around, people are led to believe he was killing people up and down Mexico like a post-Columbian Conquistador.

Resist imperial colonialism Roman/Euro rule!

• Christopher Columbus was very likely Spanish (not Italian) and Jewish (converted to Catholic), study says (BBC)
• Christopher Columbus was secretly Jewish, new DNA study reveals (MSN)
• Scientists cast doubt on claims Chris Columbus was a Sephardic Jew from Spain [Yeah, everyone knows he was an Italian Catholic gavone in debt, working for Rome, the Pope, the Vatican, and the Spanish throne for the money, right?]
• Cristobal Columbus was a Sephardic Jew from Western Europe, scientific study finds
• VIDEO: Kamala Harris doubles down with Indigenous Peoples' Day post amid outrage over [Spanish Jew] Columbus Day rhetoric
• INDIGENOUS PEOPLES' DAY (National Today)
• "Indigenous Peoples’ Day" is celebrated on the second Monday of October, on Oct. 14th this year, to honor the cultures and histories of the many Native American peoples. The day is centered around reflecting on their tribal roots and the tragic stories that hurt but strengthened communities.

What did the Natives like so much about Nature?

Sunland-Tujunga (lacity.gov)

Those were the gold-seeking European missions that followed Columbus' report to Spain. He was An Inglorious Columbus:

Edward Payson Vining in 1885 documented that Buddhist Afghan and Chinese missionaries discovered the West Coast (Fusang) before Columbus. Leif Erikson was a European Viking who preceded Cristobal Columbus.

The Chinese call this fUSAng.

There is a well-founded legend of an Irish monk who made the voyage, taught the Indian tribes about governing in counties, and returned to Ireland. Fifty thousand years ago, Australian aboriginals seem to have left archeological evidence of their arrival. The truth is, ancient humans navigated the seas and knew of other cultures.

The crazy belief that everyone was separate and just doing the same sort of thing, like building pyramids for kicks, is preposterous. Cocaine did not get up the nose of an Egyptian mummy by dreaming of pyramids in the Americas. The Grand Canyon did not get ancient visitors who built an underground city and many monuments of an Egyptian, Buddhist, and Hindu sort just by happenstance. When we celebrate "Indigenous" people, we are celebrating all of the First Nations, the tribal groups up and down the Americas.

Lies My Teacher Told Me (J.W. Loewen)

There were 100 million people in what is now the USA, with plenty in neighboring Canada and Mexico, to say nothing of tribes all the way down to Argentina where humanity sort of just stops for the thing that is "Antarctica," not likely a continent but something much stranger.

Star People of Hawaii: Mu's Mt. Sumeru?

The axis mundi Mt. Sumeru

In Buddhist cosmology, the central mountain around which everything else on the plane of the Earth revolves is Mount Sumeru (or "Good Meru"). It is thought mythological because it would be bigger than Mt. Everest or Mt. Kailash and it should be in the middle of the ocean. The lost continent of Mu (or Lemuria) would fit the bill, and the peak of this sunken continent still sticks up above sea level, and it is called Hawaii's Mauna Kea. It did not get shorter when the continent sank; the floor got lower, and most of it is underwater. So it is like a tall person standing in a hole next to a guy named Everest standing on a platform. The "tallest" mountain is still Mauna Kea.

An Indigenous Peoples' History of the USA

AUDIOBOOK: An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States

(The Learners Library) ROXANNE DUNBAR-ORTIZ: What if Native Americans wrote a history of the USA? Howard Zinn wrote a book that Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz noticed left out the Indigenous contributions. He then deputized her with the responsibility of covering that portion of our collective history. And she lived up to it with a tremendous contribution to American history.

INTRODUCTION

Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz

Chapter 1, 2/11: Welcome to the Learners Library, a bastion of knowledge that embarks on an enlightening auditory journey. This edition presents An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States by the esteemed Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz.

This audiobook installment includes the introduction and the initial chapters, offering a profound exploration of the historical narrative often obscured.

The introduction sets the stage for an in-depth examination of the Indigenous experience in the United States.

Author Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, a distinguished author and historian, meticulously guides us through the intricate layers of American history, providing valuable insights into the foundational chapters of American civilization.

Chapter 1: "Follow the Corn"

International Day of World's Indigenous People

In the initial chapter, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz takes readers on a journey into the heart of Indigenous (Native American) societies. This chapter serves as a foundational exploration of the intricate agricultural systems of Native American communities, with a particular focus on the significance of [the Frankenfood] corn (modified from ancient maize).

The title encapsulates the essence of the chapter, inviting readers to understand the profound connection between Indigenous peoples and their environment. By delving into the cultivation and importance of corn, Dunbar-Ortiz challenges prevailing Eurocentric perspectives, offering a more nuanced understanding of Native American cultures.

Chapter 2: "Culture of Conquest"

Following the agricultural exploration in Chapter 1, Dunbar-Ortiz transitions to a more somber theme. This chapter delves into the darker aspects of American history, examining the pervasive culture of conquest that shaped the interactions between Indigenous peoples and European colonial settlers. The title encapsulates the central theme, emphasizing the ideological underpinnings that justified the conquest, dispossession, and violence inflicted upon Indigenous communities.

"Culture of Conquest" serves as a critical examination of the forces that drove the colonization of Indigenous lands, challenging readers to confront the harsh realities of this historical period. As we embark on this intellectual journey, we encourage you to engage with the content, reflect on the narratives presented, and join the discourse on the multifaceted history of the United States.

Forbidden History Revealed

(Discoverize) [So it is true that the Grand Canyon in the American Southwest was a settlement of the ancient Egyptians or some cross-cultural mishmash of Buddhist, Hindu, and Egyptian artifacts in the massive cave systems we are as American citizens forbidden to enter! The mysterious Kincaid was right, reporting his findings in the Arizona Gazette only to have himself disappeared and the Smithsonian scrubbed of the physical evidence and then any knowledge of his existence. What are the powers-that-be hiding?]

• Forbidden History Revealed – Steve Quayle

The Forbidden History Revealed is a DVD produced by Steve Quayle's GenSix Productions on American history that is kept out of textbooks. Episode 1, The Egyptian Presence in the Americas and the Pacific Rim. The Great Smithsonian Cover-Up focuses on the strange mystery of why modern names for features of the Grand Canyon are Egyptian.

Buddhist and Egyptian artifacts

The mystery was solved by Kincaid, who while working for Smithsonian system, explored a cave system and documented his findings in both a report to his employers and the Arizona Gazette. The Smithsonian buried the information, just as they cover up all anomalies and physical evidence of giants. But the paper did not retract his story. It is still possible to read firsthand accounts of his incredible discoveries. This information aligns with the 1885 research of American Edward Payson Vining in An Inglorious Columbus...

The Grand Canyon eroded out

For the first time in history, there is a firsthand eyewitness account of the fact that Egyptian artifacts and giant skeletons were taken from the Grand Canyon and stored in a secret Smithsonian warehouse. Why are all the landforms in the Grand Canyon named for Egyptian deities? Why is the DNA of giant mummies and giant skeletons being extracted by the militaries of the world? Was a live 21-foot giant captured in 1877 with the most unusual features ever noted? Will the DNA of ancient giants be used to make super-soldiers?
