Pete,

Here's at least part of an answer:

7.51 American Indians

become angels of heaven, and travel and teach through all these regions."

The Universal House of Justice, in Messages from the Universal House of Justice: 1968-1973, pp. 73-74



/// (See also Chapter 8, Section entitled "Celebrating Diversity")

American Indians
You must attach great importance to the Indians, the original inhabitants of America. . . . Should these Indians be educated and properly guided, there can be no doubt that through the Divine teachings they will become so enlightened that the whole earth will be illumined.

'Abdu'l-Bahá, in Tablets of the Divine Plan, pp. 31-32

He has always been very anxious to have the Indians taught and enlisted under the banner of the Faith, in view of the Master's remarkable statements about the possibilities of their future and that they represent the aboriginal American population.

Written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi, in Bahá'í News, #188, October 1946, pp. 3-4

In the Divine Plan bequeathed to you by 'Abdu'l-Bahá is disclosed the glorious destiny of those who are the descendants of the early inhabitants of your continent. We call upon the indigenous believers who are firmly rooted in the Bahá'í Teachings to aid, through both deed and word, those who have not yet attained that level of understanding. Progress along the path to their destiny requires that they refuse to be drawn into the divisiveness and militancy around them, and that they strive to make their own distinctive contribution to the pursuit of the goals of the Four Year Plan, both beyond the confines of North America and at home. They should be ever mindful of the vital contribution they can make to the work of the Faith throughout the American continent, in the circumpolar areas and in the Asian regions of the Russian Federation.

Letter from the Universal House of Justice, dated Ridvan, 1996, to the Followers of Bahá'u'lláh

He was particularly happy to see that some of the Indian believers were present at the Convention. He attaches the greatest importance to teaching the original inhabitants of the Americas the Faith. 'Abdu'l-Bahá Himself has stated how great are their potentialities, and it is their right, and the duty of the non-Indian Bahá'ís, to see that they receive the Message of God for this Day. One of the most worthy objectives of your Assembly must be the establishment
