+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item Individual tribes named themselves “First People”
+  \item Europeans used “Indians”, which is seen as disrespectful due to its use
+   in conjunction with injustice
+  \item Alternative “Native Americans” has the problem of
+   \textit{overinclusivity} (not specific to continental US)
+  \item “American Indians” is widely used on reservations and by the tribal and
+   US government
+  \item More detailed discussion: \cite{cgp-grey-reservations-0}
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \section{History}
+
+ \subsection{Pre-colonialisation}
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item Population between 3 and 12 million
+  \item Over 600 societies with distinct cultures, languages and lifestyles
+  \item Complex social structures and collective decision-making (base for the
+   United States democracy)
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \subsection{Conflicts with Colonial Powers and the Independent United States}
+
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item Invasion of native lands due to rising immigration and need for more
+   space
+  \item Europeans brought diseases they were immune to but affected the Natives
+  \item Until 1975 the government tried multiple times to exterminate or
+   assimilate the Natives
+  \item Natives were forced onto far away reservations under futile resistance
+  \item Original land of the Natives was sold
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \section{Overview}
+
+ \subsection{Population}
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item 5.2 million people (1.7\,\%)
+  \item Not a homogeneous group: 574 federally recognised American Indian and
+   Alaska Native tribes
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \subsection{Language}
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item Speak English or traditional language
+  \item Over 300 Indigenous languages in the US
+  \item Only 175 of which are still spoken, projected to decline to 20 in 2050
+  \item Most widely spoken language: Navajo (166\,800)
+  \item Other languages have less than 20\,000 speakers
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \subsection{Culture and Traditions}
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item Majority forcefully converted to Christianity, but traditional
+   spirituality recently experienced a revival
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \section{Reservations}
+
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item 20\,\% live on reservations
+  \item Over 326 reservations
+  \item Often substandard housing (in some cases no electricity and indoor
+   plumbing)
+  \item Used as a dumping ground for toxic and nuclear waste
+  \item High rate of violence and crime
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \section{Present-day Issues}
+
+ \begin{itemize}
+  \item Double of the average US unemployment and poverty rate with 8.9\,\% and
+   26.6\,\%
+  \item 30\,\% lower median household income (USD 38530)
+  \item Over-representation in jails
