List of writers from peoples indigenous to the Americas

From NativeWiki

This is a list of Native American and First Nations writers from North and South America.

It includes people that self-identify as Alaskan Native, American Indian, First Nations, Inuit, Métis, Native Hawaiian, and Indigenous Central and South American writers. It has been noted that some writers self-identify in this way without necessarily satisfying tribal membership rules or governmental requirements (e.g. blood quantum). As the list is inclusive rather than exclusive it contains some writers over whom there has been controversy, and only excludes writers such as Forrest Carter and Grey Owl whose status as non-Natives is in no way in doubt.
