Allegedly. Not proven.

DNA has already proven it.

Nope

It's totally been proven. A long time ago.

Lol in the same way it has been proven we all descended from "Lucy"

Nope, study some more.

Gosh, even wikipedia says it's so...

Go ahead and make a snide, uneducated remark and we'll consider this exchange concluded.

Moon Bloodgood isnt native american. She's actually Korean.

reply

[–] SpikeMike (470) 2 years ago

Well her mother is Thai so it would make sense.

reply

[–] Keelai (34864) 2 years ago

Her mother looks WASPy.

I hope this isn't a Hilaria Baldwin situation.

reply

[–] SpikeMike (470) 2 years ago

Well, according to her bio she was born there. Considering how many Euros have settled there over the years it's a good chance her mother is mixed ancestry as well.

reply

[–] Keelai (34864) 2 years ago

Her bio says only Thai/Chinese, but I agree she likely has at least one European parent. I couldn't find her maiden name.

AmerIndians are Asians who settled in the Americas via Beringia.

reply

[–] kwestmo (4385) 2 years ago

pre-Columbian Asian-Americans

reply

[–] buzzlightbeer (1904) 2 years ago

That is a theory

reply

[–] Wuchak (8737) 2 years ago

Speaking as part-Abenaki, AmerIndians are not native to the Western Hemisphere. They're the product of Asians who settled here. Fact. How they got here is theoretical, but Beringia is the mostly likely way since it's unlikely aliens transported them over.

You referring to dna?

reply

[–] buzzlightbeer (1904) 2 years ago

But even so it is beside the point. Read my op up top.

reply

[–] Keelai (34864) 2 years ago

You mean Africa where EVERYONE originates, therefore no native people exists in Asia nor Europe.

reply

[–] kwestmo (4385) 5 months ago

You might want to read recent scientific journals rather than repeating 40-year-old tropes.

reply

[–] Keelai (34864) 5 months ago

First Homo Sapiens began in Africa. Period.

[–] maximmm (3338) a year ago

Are you more keen on the 'earth-maker' origin story?

reply

[–] buzzlightbeer (1904) a year ago

don't even know what you are referring to. but it's beside the point because he was referencing the theory of asians as being the founding group for north americans, not the creation story

reply

[–] BourbonKing (5777) 5 months ago

John Lone, Jason Scott Lee, Kelsey Chow, and Sandrine Holt are of Asian backgrounds and have all portrayed Indigenous Americans of various backgrounds.

reply

[–] buzzlightbeer (1904) 5 months ago

Lol okay. What does that have to do with the topic here?

Jodie Turner-Smith portrayed Anne Boleyn.
