Well, they don't really have high child mortality rates when they're living like this. They most definitely do after a bit of contact. And not just from the diseases that they have no immunities to, which can kill >75% of them in a year. But after that too when mining operations, oil drilling, missionaries, etc bring them clothes and they get jobs and buy food and live in stagnation instead of always having a clean home and fresh jungle food.

boy you trippin. cheng ho explored asia and africa. he never touched south america, let alone the heart of the amazon (places non-indigenous brazilians still have barely explored even in the age of airplanes and speed boats).

south american tapirs are not endangered. mountain tapirs from malaysia are. and not because of hunting. because of deforestation. give the white man his way in brazil and the indians and tapirs will disappear. this narrative is racist. just look at the tribes who've already been assimilated. they die of disease. they turn to prostitution and slave wage jobs. they turn to drugs and alcohol, forget their language and their vast knowledge of the plants and animals and how to survive in the forest.

that video was made by racist liars, who mistranslated what the indians were saying and even used non-suruwaha indians to pretend they were suruwaha. it's racist propaganda and you bought it. vimeo dot com/14989062

Shall we not fight amongst ourselves? The US now has more Boricua than Borinken does. Why should we not have leaders and representatives here, too? Your leader on the island and these brothers from New York are on the same side. Chiiiiiilllllll. :-)

Christianity has squashed out so much of human spirituality and culture, it's astounding. The Jarawa need Christianity like they need a smallpox epidemic. But dude, they're not being colonized by Christians. They're being conquered by Hindus. Same end result though. They lose their language, their religion, their culture, their knowledge of the flora and fauna of their island, and even their food. They lose balance with nature and become impoverished starving low caste Indians living in filth.

Suraj is the name of a shitty restaurant serving North Indian and Pakistani food in the town I used to live in. Which makes me wonder: Did she google "Indian names" and get confused?
-
bingo. you don't need to be indian to be indigenous (to somewhere), but it's not necessarily clear-cut what that should mean for those of us who are ethnically and racially mixed (and have been for centuries). and assuming this woman is jewish, her ancestors have been urbanized, and separated from an indigenous lifestyle for longer than just about any other people on the planet.

La lengua oficial es Holandes. Tambien todos hablan la lengua criolla, Sranan Tongo, basado en Ingles, con palabras Africanas, Holandeses, Portugueses. Tambien los descendientes de emigrantes de India hablan Hindi. Los Javaneses hablan Javanes (Indonesio), Los descendentes de esclavos que escapaban tienen 6 lenguas, mas o menos, algunos criollos y unos de Africa (Kwinti/Kromanti). Y hay las lenguas de los Indios que eran alli primeros. Crees que necesitan espanol? Yo creo que no.

nah. hebrew israelites didn't exist until 5000 years ago. Indigenous people had already been in the americas for 5000 to 25000 years before that (depending on which wave of migration). ignore your nutty rabbi and check out The Journey of Man by Spencer Wells. It's on youtube

The last indigenous language of the Caribbean? What about the Kalinago language of Dominica?

ok i spoke too soon! the Nama and San (Khoisan peoples) are indeed mentioned at 13:30.

Not to burst no bubbles, but just because someone is dark skinned doesn't make them African. In fact Melanesian peoples, like in the Andamans and the Philippines, are more distantly related to Africans than Europeans are. That's speaking in terms of genetics. In terms of appearance, obviously there's a resemblance. But that doesn't mean we aren't all brothers and sisters, regardless of race or color.
