Good way of looking at it.
There was a time in history when the various races lived in closer proximity of each other. In those days, the indigenous of the American continent unwittingly acquired knowledge which was not intended for the children of Pre-Adamites (humankind). Their somewhat grunted manner of speech was not born of any backwardness, but rather their extreme awe at the knowledge which they recieved. This knowledge led them to wearing feathers to indicate preparedness for entering Heaven. Which also led others to seeing them as being cowardly and subsiquently stigmatizing them as such.
Sadly, the most spiritually knowledgeable have been taken advantage of. Quite freightening is what has become of those who took advantage of them, because of their not realizing they have only won...over those who have been emotionally handicapped for thousands of years. This appears to have caused many to have a sense of self-confidence which is greater than themselves.
