Half-breed is a term, now considered derogatory, used to describe anyone who is of mixed race, though it usually refers to people that are half Native American and half European or white.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url =http://www.thefreedictionary.com/half-breed )〕 Half-breed is the English version of the French word "métis". == Use by governments == In the 19th century the United States government set aside lands in the western states for people of American Indian and European or European-American ancestry known as the Half-Breed Tract. The Nemaha Half-Breed Reservation was established by the Treaty of Prairie du Chien of 1830. In Article 4 of the 1823 Treaty of Fond du Lac land was granted to the "half-breeds" of Chippewa descent on the islands and shore of St. Mary's River near Sault Ste. Marie. During the Pemmican War trials that began in 1818 in Montreal regarding the destruction of the Selkirk Settlement on the Red River the terms ''Half-Breeds'', ''Bois-Brulés'', ''Brulés'' and ''Métifs'' were defined as "Persons descended from Indian women by white men, and in these trials applied chiefly to those employed by the North-West Company". The Canadian government used the term half-breed in the late 19th and early 20th century for people who were of mixed Aboriginal and European ancestry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/metis-scrip/005005-4000-e.html )〕 The North-West Half-Breed Commission established by the Canadian government after the North West Rebellion also used the term to refer to the Métis residents of the North-West Territories. In 1885 children born in the Northwest of Métis parents or "pure Indian and white parents" were defined as half-breed by the commission and were eligible for "Half-breed" Scrip.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/metis-scrip/005005-3200-e.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Métis National Council Historical Database ) 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher =University of Saskatchewan ) 〕 In Alberta the Métis formed the "Halfbreed Association of Northern Alberta" in 1932.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.metismuseum.ca/media/document.php/14222.Councillors%20of%20the%20Halfbreed%20Association%20of%20Northern%20Alberta%201932.pdf )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Half-breed」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
