All Americans are either immigrants or descendants of ancestors who came from somewhere else, including Native Americans. We should all respect and admire immigrants.

I'm a member of the American Indian Movement, and I'm from the indigenous nations of the Western Hemisphere.

My family is Native American, and I was raised with Native American ceremonies.

From the newest arrivals to our Native American brothers and sisters, we are one America.

West Indian cultural mentality and a North American life equals the perfect balance.

When you start to look at Native American history, you realize that, very far from being a peaceful, morally superior people, Native Americans were not that different from Europeans.

The typical Western is kind of a good-guy/bad-guy thing, and that's great, but initially when I heard about 'Into the West,' and what I love about it is it delves into both sides of our cultural past, and it puts more of a human face on the Native Americans.

Native Americans are the original inhabitants of the land that now constitutes the United States. They have helped develop the fundamental principles of freedom of speech and separation of powers that form the foundation of the United States Government.

I always see America as really belonging to the Native Americans. Even though I'm American, I still feel like a visitor in my own country.

America has absorbed people from around the world, and there is an Indian in every part of the world. This characterizes both the societies. Indians and Americans have co-existed in their natural temperament.
