Native American (American Indians) beat the Caucasian and the Afro-Americans to the Americas..... Although, evidence supports several very early immigrations of different groups of people to the Americas (evolving into the Native people of America) from as far away as France who worked their way east and crossed into the Americas around where today the State of Alaska is.... So the question is how far back do you want to go to claim who was in the Americas first .....(French are Caucasian.... other groups who crossed where of other ethnic backgrounds.....Chicken or the Egg?.) Native Americans are not counted as and are not genetically Afro- Americans. Also....good grief not every Caucasian had slaves, believed in slavery or put up with it. A note....through out history most civilizations had slaves but not all members of those civilizations owned them.

Nope. Indians are believed to be decendents of Chinese, and if you look at them close enough you will see a definate resemblance. The skin color is slightly darker because of the sun exposure, but not really much other difference. The eskimos up north look a lot closer. Indians dont look black at all. I dont know where you got that from. BTW, they are really indians, not native americans. The country we call india is really Hindustan. India is just what we call it.
