No consensus has been reached among us as to what we prefer to be called collectively. Native Americans have also been known as American Indians, Amerindians, Amerinds, Aboriginal, Indians, Indigenous, Original Americans, First Americans, Red Indians, or The Black Indians. 
European colonization of the Americas was a period of conflict between Old and New World cultures. Most of the written historical record about Native Americans began with European contact. Ideologies clashed, old world diseases decimated, religious institutions challenged, and technologies were exchanged in what would be one of the greatest meetings of cultures in the history of the world.

The All-wise Allah said that they came here 16,000 years ago and that they were exiled from India for breaking the law of Islam. All of our colors -- brown, red and yellow -- have ruled since the black. The white race, the most recently made color, ruled all the other colors for the past 6,000 years."
