I Am American Indian

I don't like the term "Indian" for indigenous people of North America. It seems pretty outdated, especially since it's being more properly used to refer to people of Indian descent. I've always preferred to be called Native American or even indigenous. I don't get offended when someone calls me an Indian but I would much rather they didn't.

In Canada indigenous people are called First Nation,Metis and Inuit. Indian is used mainly in the U.S.
