The colour's NOT good[edit]

The colour chosen for the text in the template (dark red) is not good, because it looks like the colour of a link leading to a not yet existent page (normal red). I think this confuses people. You can't colour a good link with a shade so close to the colour of a broken link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Omulurimaru (talkcontribs) 10:51, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Why no indigenous rights for white people?[edit]

Let's address this hypocrisy. 71.212.209.230 (talk) 17:52, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Why do you assume that?? Indigenous rights organizations work with indigenous peoples of all colors. For threaten indigenous white people, see Sami people. Indeed, they have the support, and have worked with, several indigenous rights organizations. If your commentary is supposed to be part of some theory about European people being in danger, or part of some form of colonization, it has no place here.

-It is not. It is the rights of ABORIGENALS and all that. Most white cultures tend to be the 'city peoples' like said in fantasy works at times. THERE IS at least one exception I knew, and actually PROTECTED - Saami aka 'lapps', the peoples related to finlanders and living north. And other small peoples of Ex-USSR I think also.

They are protected.

Do not play the far-right game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.163.21.122 (talk) 20:44, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

The people of the former colonies of the Roman Empire qualify as "indigenous people"[edit]

They were subjected to invasion and colonization. 70.58.13.223 (talk) 20:12, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

And such a long time ago that including them would make a mockery of the term. 172.218.93.102 (talk) 14:12, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

What does this article actually imply[edit]

I get the feeling when we hear the word rights, I hear things like no rights, in other words all aboriginal people all round the world are to be forced off their land & made to live in ghettos, while white colonialists obtain the most productive land for themselves, this has happened extensively in the americas, in australia & in africa. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.229.148.75 (talk) 03:10, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
