Indians in the continental United States. Mongolian race: dark brown skin, long black hair, prominent cheekbones and flat face. According to American historians Samuel Eliot Mollison and Henry Steele Commajer, 25,000-40,000 years ago, Mongolians set out from Diezhny Point, south of the Arctic Circle, trekked at least 3,000 miles, crossed the Bering Strait, and continued to Seward, Alaska, the westernmost point in the United States today. This is the ancestor of American Indians today. Since then, they have worked hard and thrived in this land of North America, and created ancient American history and culture with their own labor and wisdom. Today, Indian cultural relics can be found everywhere in the United States. Many place names in the United States, such as Massachusetts, Ohio, Michigan, Kansas and Idaho, come from Indian languages. 1492, when Christopher Columbus arrived in America, he mistakenly thought it was east indies, so he called the first person he met on the island an Indian, which is the origin of Indians in English. At that time, there were about 654.38 million Indians in the United States. From the middle of16th century, European colonists invaded America, which brought disasters to Indians, and the colonists brutally killed Indians. After the independence of the United States, with the rapid development of capitalism, it expanded its territory and expelled Indians from their ancestral homes. 1830, the American government passed the Indian Immigration Act, which stipulated that all Indians in the east should move to the reservation designated for them west of the Mississippi River and practise apartheid and persecution. Most of these "Indian reservations" are remote and barren mountainous or desert areas. A Cherokee tribe was forced to move to an Indian territory (now Oklahoma) for 3-5 months, and about 4,000 people were killed, accounting for 25% of the tribe's population. This tragedy was later called "the trial of blood and tears". Indians have been persecuted by slaughter, siege, expulsion and forced migration for a long time, and their numbers have dropped sharply. By the beginning of the 20th century, there were only over 300,000 people left. It was not until 1924 that the American Congress passed the Indian Citizenship Act, declaring that anyone born in the United States is an American citizen. 1934, according to President Roosevelt's "New Deal", the United States passed the Indian Reorganization Act, which allowed Indians to establish their own government, no longer distributed the reserved land, and no longer forced Indians to give up traditional culture and religion, and the situation of Indians was improved. In the 1960s, when blacks were fighting for civil rights, many Indians also United and established the National Association of Tribal Chiefs, the National Indian Congress and the National Indian Youth Council to fight for and safeguard their rights and interests. At present, there are 1 tens of thousands of Indians in the United States, belonging to more than 490 tribes. Most of them live in 267 Indian reservations in various States, and more than half of them live west of the Mississippi River. The largest tribe has 6,543,800 people, and the smallest tribe has only 654.38+ 07 people. More and more tribes have set up autonomous associations to manage schools, police, highways and public affairs in protected areas, and many management talents have emerged. Some tribes have successfully established some profitable industries and services on the reservation. Some Indians moved from reservations to cities and found well-paid jobs. But on the whole, Indians are still the worst off among American minorities. The unemployment rate, the number of people below the poverty line and the mortality rate of Indians are higher than those of other Americans.
