∙ 8y agoThe term Native Americans is considered more historically accurate than Indians because it acknowledges that indigenous peoples were the original inhabitants of the Americas and recognizes their diversity.

Native Americans is a more inclusive and respectful term, reflecting the complexity of indigenous cultures and their distinct ties to specific regions within the Americas.
