An Indian American is someone who is of Indian ancestry, naturalized citizen or born in America. One should not use this term when mentioning the Native Americans. Native Americans have different culture and features than Indians coming from Asia. It was a mistake to call the Native Americans as American Indians because the colonists thought that they reached India already but in fact, they reached America only.
