How many of you are Indigenous and what can you tell me about the Indigenous life?
>>214874496Most us are mestizo, meaning mixed with natives, as far as 80% or more, in western countries that would be considered indigenous, here to be indigenous is more about knowing the native language or living in a certain community with a continuous native identity.
>>214875440Do you know the Nāwatl?
>>214875511No, I had a coworker who spoke nahuatl and he used indio as an insult. Recently I heard someone speaking a native language on the phone on the bus, I dont know what it was but I don't think it was nahuatl.
>>214875634Probably one of the Oto-Manguean languages. Very nasal and tonal in general. But there's also Totonac.
>>214875634>No, I had a coworker who spoke nahuatl and he used indio as an insult. Kek I met a Yucatec Maya guy at a car show who was a huge MAGA supporter and was bitching about illegal migrants driving drunk and then switching back to speaking Mayan do his family kek

>>214875634>I had a coworker who spoke nahuatl and he used indio as an insult.So it's basically like saying nigga for native pipo?
>>214876996I think it's more of a statement of poor behaviour or against those who claim to be but have otherwise completely forgotten their cultural foundations like language.
>>214876996No, when black people say nigga they include themselves as part of the group of niggas and it doesnt have to be negative.He said indio in a negative way as synonim for ignorant or idiot, when people say indio as an insult they exclude themselves from the indios.
You forgot the only 99% indigenous cunt on the continent...
