- cjslep 9y agoNative Americans is always understood to mean the indigenous people of North and South America and their descendants. "American Indians" is a term that has fallen out of favor due to its roots in colonialism. Edit: Yes, technically, people born in North and South America now are native to it. But Native Americans isn't a technical term, it is a cultural one that is widely understood to be so.
