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 (talk • contribs) 10:51, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why no indigenous rights for white people?[edit]

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

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. Maziotis (talk) 23:27, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

-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)[reply]

As we say in the American South, "bless your heart." PurpleChez (talk) 19:44, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]
Colonisation in relation to what is termed 'indigenous people" relates to the creation of the Doctrine of Discovery by Pope Alexander in 1493. For a clear definition of indigenous people is explained by Corntassel in this journal article http://www.academia.edu/download/34483767/WhoisIndigenous.pdf — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hemopereki (talk • contribs) 21:59, 12 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

Background on indigenous rights to land with water[edit]

I just inserted a redirect in this article to a wiki page called: Indigenous rights to land along rivers It details policy related to indigenous rights to land along rivers and knowing this background information to water rights policy is paramount to ensure indigenous peoples' rights to their land and water. The wiki page discusses the complex history of land and water rights in Western states and uses the examples of the Dakota Access Pipeline, Shasta Dam, and Klamath River Dams.

Doctrine of Discovery and Indigenous Sovereignty[edit]

This page needs to have some commentary on the Doctrine of Discovery also Indigenous Sovereignty redirect to this page. Indigenous Sovereignty and Indigenous Rights are two distinct concepts.

From a Maori perspective see Mana Motuhake

Indigenous Criticism of Indigenous Rights[edit]

Indigenous academics namely Aileen Moreton-Robinson and Hemopereki Simon are critical of the system of indigenous rights in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. Moreton-Robinson writes in relation to the UNDRIP.[1] Simon writes in relation to the lack of recognition of Mana Motuhake by the Aotearoa New Zealand state.[2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hemopereki (talk • contribs) 22:15, 12 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Canada[edit]

I could, of course, be reading things wrong (this has been known to happen), but the opening paragraph seems to suggest (to me at least) that this is a specifically Canadian topic, although the body of the article addresses peoples from around the world. PurpleChez (talk) 19:46, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No, you're right (as usual, apparently :-)), PurpleChez. It did read oddly. The whole article could do with a bit of an upgrade, but I did a bit of minor copyediting on the lead to remove the specific reference to Canada. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 02:20, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As usual? I wish!! Thanks for the message!!!PurpleChez (talk) 22:45, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
