Like all other indigenous people, the American Indians are still one of the most marginalized people on earth. their land was taken away from them and so they have to adapt to mainstream culture because it is in almost all ways inevitable and it their existence to some degree depends on how the mainstream culture works (only those who are not living their traditional way of life). so they have been brutally assimilated in the mainstream culture and have to live with it all their lives now...like the some of the Australian aborigines and most indigenous people in south east Asia.

Why are Native American Indians called Indians while there are Indians in Asia?
Oh, dude, this whole "Indian" confusion is like a never-ending sitcom plot. So, basically, when Columbus got lost and thought he landed in India, he called the indigenous people he met "Indians." Fast forward to today, and we're stuck with the mix-up. It's like when you accidentally text the wrong person, but on a global scale.
How many Native Americans are alive today?
Today there are over 2 million Native Americans with about 800,000 living on reservations and 1.2 million residing in urban areas throughout America. There are approximately 300 Federal Indian reservations and 500 federally recognized tribes in the U.S. An Indian reservation is an area of land reserved for Native American use. The term tribe has had numerous meanings over the years, and today is considered by many to refer to a distinct group within the Native American culture. (not all tribes are federally recognized) source: http://www.merceronline.com/Native/native10.htm i think that everyone has native American in them but there is still alot of them out there what I've read something like 4.3 million still live true native American idk i got to read more about them<(^>^)>
