With respect to you and the (American) (Indians). << <<a country...so mongrelized by other cultures...>> >> <<Sure, tell that to the (American) Indians. Everyone else descends from immigrants, after all.>> America is the name of the continent that the American Indians occupied before colonization and later establishment of this country the USA. After defeating many of the cultures and Indian nations the USA attempted to make peace and where possible absorb the American Indians into the USA culture. Do you have an alternative? You seem to imply there is one. I don't like the mongrelized term either. I think his point was that the spirit and letter of this country's (USA) original intent has been compromised through attempts to give a voice to cultures that weren't originally represented. You and I might disagree with him, that it is a bad thing. But it has nothing to do with telling that to the American Indians, unless you are trying to refresh the conditions that existed before colonization. Did I miss your point?
