"Indian" is now "Native American" even though America was named after Italian Amerigo Vespucci.

Interesting...I didn't know that about the naming of America. ...lol
Here in Canada, it's now gone from 'Native Canadian' to 'First Nations'.
Reason being the term 'Native' has negative connotations (which I agree to a point)....I hope they stop there though....I hate having to keep up with the changes.
