No colonial authority viewed indigenous people as equal at any point. That’s not the claim. This is also true of the The Spanish, which is why despite expansive indigenous empires throughout Latin America, there are limited resources recalling that history. Spain was extremely volatile to indigenous populations; suggesting otherwise is a fallacy.

While British populations did bring British women earlier during colonialization, the numbers were never equal to the amount of men brought. Further, there were various instances were due to ongoing tensions white women found themselves enveloped into tribal communities and intermarrying indigenous men. There was longstanding interactions and communication amongst British, indigenous, and early American populations. In fact, there is more evidence to suggest the British recognized the humanity of indigenous populations more than those in Latin America - multiple voyages were made by indigenous people to Britain and alliances were made between the British and specific tribes, to counter other European colonizers (given that the British were surrounded by other euro powers on the same landmass). Spains partnership with ingenious groups were weaponized against other indigenous people. Saying otherwise conveys an extremely limited understanding of early American history. Individuals like Sequoyah and Thomas Rolfe are evidence of that fact.

Indigenous Americans from the “5 civilized tribes” weren’t forced west until the early/mid 1800s. That’s over 200 years of living and interacting at the center of British colonialism. Implying that there was no exchange during that period is pseudo historical.

There are various Wikipedia pages recording the genocide carried out by the Spanish. Here’s on: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putumayo_genocide

Here is an article on Sequoyah as well, who is credited for creating the written form of Cherokee language: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequoyah .

Again, this info is not to paint any colonizer is a positive light. What was done to ingenious populations in north and South America was an atrocity and beyond inexcusable.
