Why did Indian giver start?

In reality the term Indian giver didn't begin until a while after the US kept moving the Native Americans to reservations. When someone says Indian giver they aren't making racist remarks to Indians. If you analyze the phrase an Indian giver is someone who GIVES TO INDIANS it does not mean an Indian that gives to others. If you are an Indian giver YOU GIVE to Indians. Now this isn't the actual meaning but only a surface view that has more depth. This phrase became popular because the Americans gave to Indians many things such as food, land, and animals. The twist is that they would eventually take what they "gave" to the Native Americans, such as the land so that they could live on. But because the land was rich in soil the Americans took it from them and moved them to smaller reservations every time where the land did not prosper. When people say I'm not an Indian giver they mean "I do not give to others and then take it from them by surprise." Once analyzed when you say Indian giver you aren't disgracing Native Americans, but you are talking bad about the early Americans. Hope this helped and please pass this on because people are banning this and think it's talking falsely of Indians when in reality it has nothing bad about them. This phrase is actually good because it carries a piece of American history.
