Do you really care if you're decapitated by an obsidian blade or a steel one?
Europe borrowed a lot from the East, while the Americas were isolated. Of course they'd be "behind". If the Americas weren't behind overall it'd mean Europe were idiots. Imagine having access to Persian and Chinese technology and only being on par with peoples who had to invent everything themselves.

We had GUNS by the time they were still using stone. These freaking people are only five hundred years removed from three thousand years of demon worship and child sacrifice.
The one and only successful civilizing of a non white people has been the Japanese, and that's because they were already mostly civilized by then anyway.
We don't use obsidian blades in anything except single-use surgical tools. Obsidian is garbage, it's brittle as all hell. An obsidian blade would be turned and broken by even the most basic steel armor. Meanwhile their steel sword would hold an edge the entire time you brought the foul primitives to heel.
Again, everything they had had already been done a millennia ago. They have an interesting history, but only because they had a prolonged pseudo Bronze Age.

lol they weren't fighting Europeans clad in metal armor.
As a Caucasian I don't feel threatened at all by admitting Americans were also smart, creative, civilized people.
