[edit] Britney Spears

Heavens, please, remove Britney Spears from Native Americans list! I know that she told it, but this is encyclopedia! All what this popstar mumbles is not instantly 100% proven truth! I found her in this list and this made me, seriously, laugh. Thats ridiculous.

[edit] and mexicans? also radio crap i heard/ the gov should give me money

surely the majority of mexicans have american ancestry.<americans are those first settlers in what now is america). and dont give me that crap of they are hispanic/latino thats not even a race or a culture. I was looking for edward james olmos. wikipidia should have only true facts not popular belief!!Im mexican & that concept of hispanic/latino is confusing. I personnaly do not see my self as hispanic/latino because im not. anywho just want to mention this funny thing that i heard on the radio. the coversation was about a survey on how latinos/hispanics had negative thoughts about blacks because of race differences. one of the comentaters was from NY & said he remembered when blacks & puerto ricans use to fight each other fruquently because they hated each other. also added "there are millions of black hispanic/latino". so they discriminate their own selfs by looking in the mirror???!!!!! what a bunch of b.s!!!<goes to show hispanic/latino.<not a race/culture.if goverment is serious that mexicans are latino/hispanic. Than i should join the blacks that were seeking money from the gov. because their ancestors were enslaved. Why do i type that? well there were black cubans,dominicans enslaved & many others which makes them latino/hispanic so since they are consider the same as me than im cool with that!! were are my millions biotch???!!i dont look black at all. I look mexican(brown oviously) but for that money wesley snipes is my twin brother.

[edit] Contemporary Native Americans

[edit] Cherokees

I think the category "Cherokee" should be removed. It is the only listing by tribe. The point of the page seems to be famous Indians in various categories of achievement, not based on their tribal affiliation, though it's useful to include the tribe.

I added Will Rogers to "Entertainers" so as not to mingle him with the ladies of ill repute. I'm not at all sure the Cherokee category was made with good intentions. Yopienso (talk) 18:48, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
