- President Obama reminds the American people that all citizens of the U.S. are descended from immigrants.
Watch the full speech here:
• President Obama Speaks...
"Immigration's always been an issue that inflames passions. That's not surprising. There are a few things that are more important to us as a society than who gets to come here and call our country home. Who gets the privilege of becoming a citizen of the United States of America. That's a big deal. When we talk about that in the abstract, it is easy sometimes for the discussion to take on a feeling of us versus them. And when that happens, a lot of folks forget that most of us used to be them. We forget that. And it's really important for us to remember history. Unless you're one of the first Americans, a Native American, you came from some place else, somebody brought you. The Irish who left behind a land of famine; the Germans who fled persecution; the Scandinavians who arrived eager to pioneer out west; the Polish, the Russians, the Italians, the Chinese, the Japanese, the West Indians -- the huddled masses who came through Ellis Island on one coast and Angel Island on the other. All those folks before they were us, they were them. And when each new wave of immigrants arrived, they faced resistance from those who were already here. They faced hardship. They faced racism. They faced ridicule. But over time, they went about their daily lives. They earned a living as they raised a family, as they built a community, as their kids went to school here. They did their part to build the nation. They were the Einsteins and the Carnegies, but they were also the millions of women and men whose names history may not remember, but whose actions helped make us who we are, who built this country hand by hand, brick by brick. They all came here knowing that what makes somebody an American is not just blood or birth, but allegiance to our founding principles and the faith in the idea that anyone from anywhere can write the next great chapter of our story,and that's still true today."

Any Native Americans reading this..., just want you to know..., the whole world out here know your the real Americans... including me :)
@Pizzaman15611 Of course, you probably an european, an african or an asiatic descendant. Maybe if you are a latino, it's possibly to consider you a type of mixed natives.
@Pizzaman15611 American citizen, by nationality but not ethnicity
@Pizzaman15611 well lets see it how our current administration POV, being born in this country probably isn't enough to consider you an American (they want to end birthright citizenship)
Thank you.
EccentricWorld thanks 💯🙏🏾
That moment when Americans don't want immigrants but they don't realise they are the immigrants
Joe Biden is giving 11 million illegal immigrants visas
@Bro Momento i don’t think you’ve heard the opinions of many Americans .. regardless of legitimacy of one’s immigration, Americans in general don’t like immigrants. It’s interesting cause when the Europeans came it wasn’t by some legitimate means that they ended up in the US, and they most certainly did not ask the permission of the natives b4 killing all of the Native Americans of the North
have ypu ever heard of sovereignty?
99% of Americans are born in the US thus they are not immigrants.
@@Matt-hs7gs it's only from White
Sad to see that so many native americans seem so joyful and happy because of such a small comment. Crazy! Just so you know folks, all over the wolrd people love you and your culture. I am from germany and I know not a single person that does not respect native americans. You are the stuff of legends man dont forget that. You guys always respected nature and I respect that a ton. Wish I could go hunting with you folks one day. Cheers..
Stop reading bs in books about American indigenous- you are completely lost.
Worry about the people in Germany being tossed out of their homes because your corrupt female based government is ripping the land apart for cheap, dirty coal
Nice example of a country with zero respect for nature
Racism is okay as long as you say nice things
Thank you. Native of the Sonoran Desert here, Yaqui and O’odham Tribes. Your words are meaningful. ❤
@@militantlymarginal im happy you feel that way. Just know that my words arent an empty phrase and truly come from my heart.
We all grow up with books like winnetou, (even tho the Story is not real , as a kid you think its a real story ) so from a very young age we dream about the adventures of your ancestors and really learn to respect the Culture of all the different beautiful tribes of the north american people.
if you respected nature, you wouldnt go hunting
I love you Native American guys. Please keep your culture alive.
Please leave and stop destroying it. The love is not mutual.
@@grasstoucher8503how tf is it our fault. our ancestors made the move. we just here
@@cheddah48 Yeah but then you keep buying land here and having babies who go off and do the same. It's not your fault that you were born here but at some point it's your fault for staying.
You people ask us to keep our culture alive as if we haven't been fighting to do that for centuries. As if you aren't the ones who tried to destroy it. As if you aren't the ones slowly suffocating it to death because you refuse to relinquish what you wrongfully inherited.
If you truly care about preserving Indian cultures, then go back to Europe and never return. Maybe even take some others with you; I heard you people are skilled at involuntary Trans-Atlantic voyages.
@@cheddah48who are your ancestors? White European people?
Ok I’ll try, I am a mix Native American but I’m 50% choctaw
I'm still waiting for America to have a native American as president of the United States of America. Now that's worth living to see happen!
I'm with you!
I hope you realize you literally have to be native by law. Or “natural born citizen” IE native.
Never say never... I pray God it will happen soon!!!!

Pure and simple half of America is full pledged racist that's the oanly reason a handicap would make it
For people like you who don't accept basic geography that America is not a country :)
To all my native Americans keep striving and never lose hope.
We do know your existence and history more than some so called Americans..... words isn't enough for me to describe the pain and endurance your ancestors had gone through.

But apparently mass migration is a positive thing ?
@@evo8power228I hope Europeans will leave American penisula and go back to their continent to save their continent from immigrants
Respect! Thank you!
They prefer the word Indian over Native American.
@XunyoZero No, they do prefer it. They’ve been using that word for centuries as a way to identify as the native peoples of the land. It’s liberals that are now proclaiming that word as problematic because it was given to them by Europeans. Natives themselves don’t have issue with it and many take offense to the term Native American as it’s use is viewed as white people telling them what words they should use and identify with.
Native Americans came from Asia and before that Africa, just like every human.
I'm native american and I agree with your opinion 👍 we all from 🌍 Africa
@@jamesbourne117 Zamina mina A A Waka Waka A A.
Yes. If your family came over 100s of years ago, it is a bit silly to claim anything other than American. I have certainly never been to Europe.

Imagine Trump saying anything even remotely like this, let alone nice.
He doesn’t have most of these words in his vocabulary.
Hurley Cape town for real
Sad to see were so far from haven
Now, I don’t agree with what he did. But I do like what he said.
Now imagine Obama doing anything close to as what Trump has done
Increased economy in one year more than Obama did in two terms
Lowest unemployment of blacks and Hispanics
Tries to take out soldiers from Afghanistan but Demonrats want them there since they’re earning money
Built a wall to prevent illegal immigration, yet dem states allowed ILLEGAL immigrants in the country, which isn’t fair for all the others who had to wait years to even apply for immigration just to maybe have a chance to live well in America
Didn’t panic when COVID started and first three weeks it was in America, corona task force already transported millions of masks around the states which needed it, set up dozens of test sites
Why is covid still spreading? Oh yeah the mass rioters going around cities burning buildings and killing people without masks, but I’m sure you don’t care about that 🤷♂️ , you blame it all on the president. Tearing down statues of some heroes like Lincoln, killing children, you don’t care about all that.
All you want is a terrible person like communist Biden to rule America, who I’m sure you’ve heard, is very racist.
“Poor kids are as bright as white people”
“If you vote Trump, you ain’t black”
Can you name one candidate more fitting than a person like Trump has already done for the country? Dems are getting rid of our rights, trying to imprison the St Louis couple for defending their home which was trespassed.
Even though I don’t believe it is right yet for schools to open again, many families don’t have technology to do online learning, which is why it isn’t a very bad choice. Dems don’t want schools to reopen but want BLM rioters to party without masks destroying everything 😂
Get off CNN and the MSM and look at what’s actually happening
Mexican here proud of my Native American ancestry and always standing for Natives rights.
technically all humans in America came from another continent.
@@nevrynkinori3627 Nope, Native Americans got here first than anyone else more than 30,000 years ago.
Humans change their physiognomy based on the environment they live in.
Also my dna test says i’m from here xoxo
@@MiloSatori what I mean is that Paleoamericans may have moved across the Bering Land Bridge from Asia sometime before 15,000 years ago.
@@nevrynkinori3627 According to a paper published today in the journal Nature, the site, known as Chiquihuite Cave, may contain evidence of human occupation that places people in North America around 30,000 years ago-roughly twice as early as most current estimates for when the first humans arrived on the continent.
@@MiloSatori That makes the old data a bit strange. Could humans be from two places? if not then there is a missing link somewhere.
this quote inspired a speech I wrote and performed for one of my college classes
So sad that such an obvious observation was a controversial statement in America

Actually my Dutch school does actually talk about Native americans. We had 2-3 chapters dedicated to it (so about 3-4 months of work)
@@Akira-ky7yr chapter of what? Also why are you learning about the native americans like how do they relate to dutch?
The “natives” weren’t from North America either. They are descended from Mongolians who crossed the Bering Strait land bridge from Siberia.
That may be true or not and if it is it’s completely relevant and doesn’t matter because the native Americans have been in the Americas for 10,000 before any other race or group of people which makes them very indigenous to the Americas.
@@user-ib3uh5nn1n Historical fact is more important that your opinion of relevancy. The natives migrated here. Saying that everyone but them are immigrants is factually incorrect. Don't use politics as justification to ignore reality. Politics are fluid and everchanging. The past is not. Political parties do not care about you. Value your own knowledge over your loyalty to any system. Try studying some anthropology rather than a president. You can learn a lot that way.
@@KonglomeratYTthe arrogance in you…wow… how many friends do you have? If do you have some, I bet they’re just as arrogant as you
Barack Obama was one of the best president ever elected in American history.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
he's no different from any prior presidents for the world.
Ayyyye! I'm Native American bout time someone spoke the truth that we were here LONG before Christopher Columbus.
I am African, I have always known this and always tell assholes in America when they wanna tell me to go back, that only the Native folks can tell me to go back and I would respect it, not anyone else whose forefathers came and stole this land and it’s an occupied land til this day. Also that if we were to ask the natives if they wanted their land back and who they’d prefer to stay, I’m sure it wouldn’t be Europeans asked to stay lol
it's a pity he didn't speak the full truth.
he forgot to add that not only did the immigrants build the country brick by brick ........ they also committed genocide against the native americans to get where they are today.
im full blood and im from oklahoma i was not here before colombus and neither was you
@@hairymonster2000 don't forget the Buffalo Soldiers they were black soldiers that killed a lot of Native Americans called the Trail of Tears
Michael Whity why don’t you present some evidence that they came from Asia. Thats a racist retort to those who acknowledge that natives were always here. However there is evidence that shows remains of native Americans in southern US dated before the so called bearing land bridge which there is also no evidence of.
White guy: "Hey, where are you from?"
Native American: "I'm native American"
White guy: "Ah... It's always cool to meet FOREIGN people..."
Native American: "...I-....???...😕"

That is the most confusing senario I've ever read.
Haha 😆😆
@@mannysilver211 You're definitely reading it incorrectly then.
@@tander101 I know what it's saying, but if you're native, and someone is calling you foreign, even though they are foreign, that makes no sense.
Everyone who exists and has ever existed came here from somewhere else. Native americans included. The natives just so happen to be the first people to discover the land. What happened and has happened here over the last few hundred years is the exact thing that has happened everywhere else on the planet since the dawn of humanity. The natives managed to escpe all of the land wars for thousands of years because the ice bridge on the bering straight melted and left them stranded here. Our entire species originated in the ancient mesopotamian area. Every single one of us. Thr natives got away. And thousands of years later , the rest of the world caught up to them, and did to them what they have been doing to everyone else on the planet for thousands of years. It was nothing new. Sounds horrible I know but that is the truth
Literally i got goosebumps 👏👏
if any Native Americans is reading this I'm so sorry I'm ashamed of what this country did to you. Everyone knows that you guys are The Real Americans.
Thank you respect
AHO! Columbus is the BIGGEST liar in history.
Some people dont even know who we are 😭😭🤣
It is true they are the true Americans because they were here long before the Europeans and everyone else buttttt technically speaking since we all came from Africa they weren’t originally from The U.S. but yes they were the first ones here.
Respect
I am Native American and my people have been here for 15,000 years. To those who state, "your people came from asia." Well maybe that's true, but you to have come here from somewhere else, just 500 years ago. 15,000 compared to 500...no comparison!!
AND WE NATIVE AMERICANS DIDN'T CAME FROM INDIA OR ASIA. .WE ARE NOT INDIANS. we're native of this continent
You're right, no comparison, but we aren't giving it back... deal with it.
@@elmerhigueros5614 A'ho
Team Mongoose trueeeee

Sorry,but just got to make this point.
Native Americans arrived here from Asia when they followed the migration of animals on the land bridge then which they split from the Aztecs/Mayans and other Spanish tribes
ofcourse but that was thousands years ago, in that sense no one's native anywhere we all come from Africa
@@sakshamsood7480 exactly
“Other Spanish tribes”
i know this is an old comment and probably wont see it, but that still means that they were the first human settlers in north america right? by rights they are still the first ones in america thereby making the country, in essence, theirs and everyone coming after the immigrants or pilgrims or whatever.
tf are spanish tribes
Because as everyone knows, natives sprouted from the ground like spring grasses. Obviously.
the first settlers of a land are called natives. before natives came to America, there was no one here, so, yeah
@@shitluna50kgonedogegogogo87 The problem I have with that logic is that under it no one can ever be native to a land in which their ancestors were not among the first arrivals. No matter how long their bloodline has lived there in the meantime.
That would make the Spartans not native to Greece. The English not native to Britain. The Romans not native to Italy. The Yayoi not native to Japan. Etc.

To me being president shouldn't matter what race you are or nationality it should come down to the people and who will make a greater change not oh we never had a president like that so let's get him in even if he is going to harm the county and with the last three President trump Biden and Obama it's not even about that anymore

***** Warring among humans is an incredibly common thing, the very fact you are baffled about the subject proves to me, your are ignorant. Because we fought among ourselves (much like humanity does)
apparently in your mind, makes it okay to steal our identity and heritage, at the expense of an entire race numbered 20+ million. Or at least you are implying we deserved it. If we looked at the track record of the "other" continent, its filled with plenty of hate, warmongering and outright killing, but it brought a lot of good too. Renaissance Era for example. Much like the whites (just names for references, dont get offended), The Native Americans supported Matriarchy, which was never seen at the time of white colonialism. (They treated their women like they were under sharia law).
Nah not really, our history dates back 15 thousand years.
So did they - via the Bering
Strait land bridge.
Hi 👋! Your comment are always worth reading..I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now.
Wait a minute, i thought we all came from the same place...
it only applies on certain occasions apparently haha
Democrats (at least the ones in these comments) seem fond of the idea of rewriting history. Not sure why they want to rewrite the origins of native americans...but it didn't seem to go anywhere; given that it's been 11 year since this. Guess it was just a fad to lie about this portion of history for them?
As a Native American it's nice to see people are actually seeing First Nation's People for who and what they are, I am genuinely thankful for this. I'm ecstatic to be part of a great Nation of people and being related to the Lakota Chief Sitting Bull. Love from North Dakota to you all
Your people are the owner of the land. Not white, not black and neither am I. But I hope in the future we all could live happily together in America without supremacy.
@@masdodoguy1196 Yep
And love from all of us, back to you. All the way from The Netherlands
What do you think about America right now? I mean.....do you wish things were different, I have always wondered what the present day Native Americans think about the country they live in. I dont know how to properly put this question but I hope you understand what I am saying.
Do u want a bow ?
The truth is still the same after 7 years .
And it will still be like that forever
Always has been

what i'm wondering is that why there always has to be a correlation between me in 2021, and an ancestor of mine 100-200 years ago? especially with social-democrats in the USA, what obama said is the equivalent of white people paying reparation to black people for slavery, or at least taking the blame for it because of their race. obama in other words is saying because your ancestors 100s of years ago came here, then that means let us allow everybody in as well, not really looking into each circumstance and judge it individually.
unless i misunderstood?
@@bubblegumfacebabe Hes saying the entire nation was built upon people immigrating from elsewhere and hes correct seeing as no one besides native Americans weren't immigrants. This is why immigration is good.
I'm russian and dreaming of immigration to USA...
Actually, Indians also came from somewhere else and everyone born in America is a Native America.
Then Europe doesnt belong to Europeans because its was uninhabited until migration from Africa and Middle East entered
Barrack: native Americans are Americans
Trump :we came before the NATIVE Americans

My name is Night Little Bear, I am Ojibwe, from Canada. And I just want everyone to know who is reading this, to know that I am thankful for you all to see that my other fellow natives in America are the original people of that land. You don't know how happy it makes me to finally see that my people are being recognized all over the world! I am truly grateful for everyone who has watched this, liked this, and saw that the land was and is theirs :)
I hope you all have a good day, thank you again. 🤗
There is no such thing as a "native American". It is a political name given to appease this group of Asians.
Hi bro love from india🇮🇳
Hi from Scotland 🏴
hi from italy
Hi! from Malaysia. 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
The world felt safer when Barack Obama was POTUS
The Native Americans came here from somewhere else to. They just got here before everyone else. Man I hate Obongo.
Being Native, this is Hands down one of my favorite speeches from Obama and any President ever. It speaks to EVERY person in the states. He truly understand history and how we got here today.
Same
Well... hate to poop in your fruit loops, but you do realize Native Americans came from Asia right?
@@fargopcguy with our current understanding of history. Yes that could be the case. However the central dogma is that theory. There is good evidence and knowledge that backs that up too. However if you go deeper there are artifacts and signs of human activity well before the land bridge theory. For instance my tribe has a creation story where we came out of the ground at a sacred site known as Nanih Waiya (Mother Mound in Choctaw) in Mississippi. Take it as you will but I believe and many others too that we were actually from this land to begin with. I forget the term but in science it’s when two different species evolve exactly the same even though they have had no contact with each other. That could be the case why we are so similar 🤷♂️ We could have come from Asia, or we could’ve come from some other form of travel maybe by boat. Seems preposterous but I wouldn’t be surprised if someone tried and succeeded
@Brandon Stockwell and then Europeans came along and took it from them, just as they had been doing to other tribes for centuries. Whats your point?
Them americanos be divided on race so much
I like that. “The first Americans, the Native Americans”
I like that Canadians refer to native Americans as the "first nations".
Alex Pablito Everything you said makes absolutely no sense. In fact i am now dumber after reading it. Number one being Europe is not a country. Its a bunch of countries. So technically theres no such thing as Native European. Number two is a question. What do the Nazis have to do with anything?
What are you, 12? Is that all it takes? A meaningless line that just states the obvious as if it is profound?
clicking on rocks To many Americans don’t realise they are living on stolen land. Thats all.
Radagast 11 I dont think you understand how countries work. You wouldnt be native to Europe because its not a country. Youd be native to Germany, France or Spain and so in. Saying native European means nothing.
They should just play this over and over until ALL Americans hear it.
Man!!! The former President's wise words of wisdom really touches and uplifted me especially with all the madness going on these days this is exactly what i needed. Thank you Sir Barrack Obama all due love and Respects "INDISPUTABLE" 🔥🙏🙏🙏️🔥 2022-Foward >>> shout out to all our native brothers and sisters too on this one. Amen and God Bless! 🐉 Chino Tai-Lao 😅😁😄

@Sean Rommel yea at least our current president isnt so trigger happy with drone strikes
@Sean Rommel you voted trump to see americans die ?

@@defox5019 94% of those deaths are from comorbidities.

by your logic
obama = trump
Trump nor Obama should be back in office. They were both terrible
I feel the same.
It doesn't matter. If you're born if a country, that's where your from. Wtf are you supposed to do, go back to a country without a citizenship and being unable to speak their language? Pretty sure Americans and Canadians are the only one who say that.
"All of us one time we were them". DAMMIT I miss having a president like this. Instead now we have a president who's a childish bully with followers who believe they're the only ones who matter.
tihzho that statement is wrong.
The majority of Mexicans arriving are illegals, Mexicans are not suffering from a war, or persecution, in fact over 50% of Mexicans are either overweight or obese (so don't know why Obama is comparing the Irish famine where over 1.5 million Irish died from starvation which mean almost 20% of the entire Irish population died while Mexicans are stuffing their face with toccos and has become one the fattest countries in the world.
The USA has its own laws and immigration policies. There are steps in which people can take to become a us citizen. Go through the paperwork and necessary procedures to become a US citizen. The USA has already got 40 million Mexican in the USA (that 1/3 of the entire Mexican population)
Trump followers probably do believe American citizen come first, just like every nation does.
For Mexico, Mexicans citizen come first
For Japan, Japanese citizen come first
If you truly care about the Mexicans they why don't you house them and all their kids (who they use to get a free pass to the US)
Arberor Over 40% of the Mexican population lives in poverty and Mexico has been at war (officially) since 2006.
Wow! An actual president speaking coherently, praising the people - not just himself...
Seriously.miss having a president that isn't the laughing stock of the rest of the world.
@Whitest Cracka he isnt, I dont know if it was intentional or not but he divided this country almost completely which is unfortunate because I would have preferred the first black president to be good.
@@thebluelobsterking8695 Trump divided more so than Obama ever did
Lovely isn't it?
@@josephdickson6572 Many abroad love Trump too. In Japan, in Brazil, in Peru. And I dont care who he praises. It’s policies not personality
But people need to come here legally. My parents did the paperwork paid fees studied American history and became citizens of America. 🇺🇲 right now we have no borders unfortunately.
The Native Americans came over the Bering Strait land bridge from Asia, for those unaware.
Natives americans were here first and for that, they are native americans. Point.
+Melanie Marcos There are no native Americans except for those who were born here.
***** thank you
+Dragon XD Same with the Indians who immigrated here from Asia at one point in history. You also don't know my heritage so screw you.
+Melanie Marcos Yes, your name sounds pretty European as well. So how does what happened hundreds of years ago excuse illegal immigration today?
+Melanie Marcos. Being born in America, I too am a native American. I take great pride in saying that. From whom did the Indians take the land? Try having a thought beyond your liberal indoctrination.
A President who reads books. Weird, huh?.
Trump wrote a book
@@novamike7121 Art of the Deal? Tony Schwartz wrote it. Trump's name was on the front. There's no evidence Trump even read it.
(To be fair, very few politicians write books without extensive editorial help, and this includes Obama. But according to Schwartz, Trump's involvement and interest in the writing process was pretty much non-existent. He no more physically wrote the book than he physically built Trump Tower.)
Wait what? Books? Are suppose to be read It?
Proof that Trump doesn't read?

Only those who never left East África are truly indigenous.
