His son is so beautiful. Every time I see a photo of him smiling my heart stops. I hope that boy has so many lving people surrounding him for the rest of his life. It’s sad that his mother didn’t get to see his beauty.

Frybread should be made in your Aunties kitchen and should come to you hot from the pan. Not from a museum kitchen surrounded by old YT folk discussing the merits of basket weaving or “war-bonnets.”

are Red Vines low carb? Cause those are also good eating while fights are happening. Oh and keep posting the Russia meddling info cause not a one of us can rest on our laurels with this administration. Did you hear Putin’s speech today? *shiver*

Absolutely not. That damn musueam also pushes an antiquated narrative of natives. Let those YT folks eat a dang hard “Native American” taco and waste their money. But not for nothing when that museum opened and all of us NDN’s went to DC, it was LIT!!!! But if you’re ever in Denver def let me know, I’ll buy you a taco!

I wish I could star this a thousand times

You must come visit. Denver March powwow is the end of this month, just saying :) Also there is this fabulous restaurant here called Tocabe that is like an Indian version of Chipotle except they serve NDN tacos and frybread nuggets with powdered sugar. Oh and BANNOCK!!!

I know but I’ve become so weary of grays coming at me like Donald Trump flyaways. I’m especially tired of grays in the form of white women, thinking that their brand of hate isn’t as bad as others. I’ve had to take a step back but I do agree that The Root has been an amazing space to come to when everything else is…

Come to Colorado, I’ll make you frybread.

Don’t read it.

To be honest I’m not certain if I’m here to hear all about the wonders of white feminism and it’s gifts to us “colored” women. I’m sorry but these past two and a half years have really put me off on all things Jez and their lack of acceptance. But I will watch this for the fights and I’ll make certain to bring the…

Man! Thank you Hachi cause I was biting my tongue while reading this.

There are moments I wish she would talk. There are moments I wish I could talk to my father who was, sadly, very violent towards her. But I also wonder if I have the strength to hear their stories.

So I will share a text my mother sent me after watching the fisrt episode, my mother is white btw and was disowned for marrying my father but after they divorced she never dated another black man. “When I married your father, it was only 3 yrs after the Loving decision. It took unil 2000 to change state law in all 16…

OH GOD!!!!!!!! This is horrific and he probaly thinks whites are the master “race.”

I watched it too. Even after being a teen and watching this happen in real time, I am still stunned at the amount of f*ckery on both sides. Neither side gave a damn about those kids. The fact that people still adhere to his teachings blows me away but then again we are watching a whole different version of dangerous…

I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING!!!!!

The Jonestown documentary still scares the hell out of me but I believe it is really easy to fall for false prophets saying they can give you a better life outside of this country, especially if you are a person of color. I mean even Koresh had black folk believing his lies.

I will never stop being infuriated by this.

Man, being the archivist cataloguing all of this would be my dream job.

Here’s the deal, I and this org, agree with you and there is a lot going on in rooms discussing just this. We are working towards an education that isn’t so “white” Montessori. I don’t have hours to explain what we’re doing but please trust that we are the elephant in the room trying to effect a massive overhaul of…
