Native Americans Ethnic Background
841 wordsWhat is an American? An American is someone who loves their country and the people in it, and believes in bettering their own lives as well as the lives of those around them.

To say that the majority of people in the United States have some sort of tie with an ethnic background from a different country would be a safe assumption. This is...
