My Fellow [Native] Americans :)

Even so, you seem to be making no sense.
I would like you to explain yourself for the sorry souls that find themselves living in England.
Cheers.

 

Lets just put it this way, Native Americans are an "Endangered" race, that and the OP is asking who is part native.

 

i've gotta say i have a lot of respect for native american culture. just the fact they had no need for a police force is mind boggling. hell, the american system of government is partially based of the cherokee folk.

 

It's more about living in harmony and and a less invasive way of life

 

Is that related to ethnicity?

 

no

 

Then why say it? Have you sun stroke or something?

 

Because you could be a better person too

 

Mmm, deep and meaning.... full/less. Not decided yet.

 

I live on an indian rez. Born and raised here all my life.
i have no blood in me but im the most indigenous person here. mostly now and days in 2009 most native kids around here just try to be gangster. Its sad sick and funny all at once. It dosent matter what your skin color is anymore, where all the same color. All the natives around here have so much pride for being native, but yet you see them acting like a gangster streight out of compton, they hold no triditinol values. The elders around here are a much different story, i have much respect for them. They still go by the values and teachings, unlike the newer generation.

 

so are you helping. a traditional person will help.

 

One of the Iroquois tribes on mom's side,but since I didn't see her much,I never found out which one or what percentage I am at this point.

 

Honestly, YES. You can't know where your going, if you don't know where you've been. Heritage is very important, especially to the ever shrinking number of Native Americans who are just trying to maintain a link to a past that a bunch of white buffoons took from them.
Be proud of your heritage.
I myself have no "confirmed" native blood, only a letter from a genealogist who found a link. But, I am proud of who and what I am, even if I can't "confirm" it all. My husband and sons have native blood that with enough research can be confirmed though. I will not let that heritage go from their learning. It is part of who they are.
I am German, Irish, Scottish and "unconfirmed" Nez Perce. My husband is Irish, French, Cherokee and a rumor of a few others. My sons are all of those together. We are proud of the traditions and history that came before.
I think that makes us "special."

Can you say anything other than that your in England?

 

I think I may have some cherokee in me

 

Too bad it's not like that now. The tribal government (including police force) is unbelievably corrupt. My kids are Cherokee and they don't even tell people that do not already know. Sad, but I don't blame them at all.

 

Cherokee language simplistic?? Are you kidding? Have you ever tried to learn Cherokee? Not only do you have an entirely different grammar structure, but there is the syllabary to deal with too. True, it is practically a dead language now, so it doesn't really matter...but it is still taught in the schools (yet another waste of money) and I would never call it simplistic.
But, yeah, Spearfinger is a cool legend...

 

Not that I live the life or its style at all... But I have enough Wappani/Wappinger (Iroquois group) blood/DNA in me to be able to live in one of the related nations if I so wished.

 

Actually, anyone can live there. I've no idea why they would want to, but they could. Non-Natives cannot buy land on the rez, but they can lease or rent.

 

Seminoles have some really pretty designs on their traditional clothing.
