That depends on who you ask. Relationships between Native American's and White Settlers ranged from friends to outright ritualistic slaughter.

Up to 1830 or 1832 most Cherokee emulated and got along with whites; after that violation more began to call white men (and their culture for what it is) - this was further exacerbated by the next violation of treaties known as the Oklahoma Land Rush (taking away the last of our lands) in 1889. As a general statement, most Native Americans hold hostilities to any white man today (either directly, or for allowing their government to 'do this' and not do something about it - this concept involves cultural differences between whites and natives; we have a habit of killing our leaders when they violate their word (leadership responsibility), where whites expect it to happen and only question how bad it will be).

If you are part Indian and you make a racist remark to another Indian is this racist?

Yes if you make a comment about another person's ethnic background then you ARE RACIST! The fact is that millions of people in the United States have been told that they are NATIVE AMERICAN/INDIAN when in fact they are PURELY CAUCASION. Many people belive that they are Cherokee Indian just because they have been told that they are Cherokee by their parents/grandparents who are simply WHITE ONLY. Yes Cherokee Indians DID intermarry with whites more than other tribes especially southern tribes ie CREEKS, SEMINOLES, CHOCTAWS, CHICKASAWS, but they percentage is small compared to the MILLIONS of EUROPEAN AMERICANS who claim to be Native today. -Semvnacke The term "Indian" itself is offensive to Native Americans. It should only be used when referring to people/culture from India.
