Make me so sad. I hate learning about them. I feel so connected to them. I’m Cherokee and Blackfoot. I mean serioulsy, it’s the saddest case of genocide I’ve ever heard. I wish My blood wasn’t mixed with eastern european blood. I would love to have a full Native American Heritage. I’m sitting here…
What was sad about this to me is your hate for your own blood.
You should learn to love and respect yourself even if you are mixed blood. You wouldn’t be you, without your European bloodline, embrace it and just focus your thoughts and love towards your Native roots.
I only say this cause I once thought the same way, not liking my Irish/Scottish roots.. but I learned that my Scottish Ancestors were friends of Cherokee and left with them walking the Trail of Tears also. The men way before me loved and respected my Cherokee Ancestors as I do now, I find comfort in knowing that.
We can’t place blame on what we did not do, and only do what is right for us now. Be proud mixed blood. :) Sure it’s sad to learn, but it’s the greatest power we have, knowledge.
