It's sad that even a publication like NYTimes refers to Native Americans as Indians. It was an acceptable mistake at the time of Columbus, now not so much..

- totalZero 9y agoI don't really find this usage offensive, so much as confusing. Indians are people from India. I read the headline and imagined an immigrant from India who is exploited by an employer or visa sponsor.
- yumraj 9y agoAs an Indian, from India, I do find it offensive and am sure that a lot of Native Americans would also find it offensive as it takes away from them their American heritage and ancestry.
