250k would be the number of people living on reservations or similar. Incredibly disingenuous to not include all the people and their descendants that integrated into the dominant society.
- socialismisok 4y agoNo, 250k is the total number of people who claimed indigenous heritage in the US. Not just those living on the reservations. Yes, there were some who probably stopped claiming indigenous heritage, but unless you have a source, the most accurate scholarly number we have for the total number of indigenous people in the US is between 230k and 250k in the years between 1900 and 1910.
