Lololololol. There is NOTHING revolutionary about speaking over lived experience, day one natives. Growing up in culture is very very different than blood quantum. Reconnecting is valid. But why always trying to center yourselfs over people who have. WILD ENTITLEMENT HERE
Yeah no professors have already talked about the $5 Indians and 1 reasons why DNA testing for natives is not considered a strong point is because they can already proved that a lot of people who are or cream that they are indigenous are not actually indigenous by DNA the paper genocide that happened remove the right of so many black indigenous people mainly to steal land even though there is an overwhelming amount of evidence that black natives were here so some of that entitlement that some of these one-day Indians have is in the fact that they knew that the history was stolen from them and some of the Gatekeepers are $5 Indians
The bat Creek Stone which was authenticated as well as the stone with the Ten Commandments on it was just authenticated the History Channel did a video on it and it literally has Hebrew on it these are artifacts that prove that we were here and they hide and remove these things meanwhile if these things were fake they would have carbon-dated and said that they were fake anyone had a problem with those artifacts talk about the conflicting timelines meanwhile Columbus's diary describes Native Americans as being black
Are you black and Native? Have you ever experienced discrimination from both communities? Have people ever invalidate or trivialize your identity? Instead of trying to understand you took it personal. This post is about people who are black and Native… two identities not just one. Our experiences are going to be different that’s just reality…your comment proves our point of exclusion/ discrimination. They’re involved with their communities…what have you done for yours?
I've been doing research since this post and there are actually black native Chiefs real black native Chiefs in fact in recent years they turn over artifacts to a black native chief the issue for me is it didn't take that much research to find these black Chiefs so anyone who keeps saying that there are no black Chiefs are admitting that they're not native
@R Shaaad I am black & native. I did a panel with Amber & found out she’s a self hating fraud. Who’s making a career on her invented identity. Talking about JEEVES taught her she is native & gave her a family tree. 💀. She’s a clout chasing pretendian.
Does this white skinned, green eyed, reconnecting woman feel entitled to take up SO much space in Afro indigenous spaces. Amber Starks not only had a Ted talk dedicated to her anti blackness/self hate… started identifying as Mvskokee in 2019, after her father died. And magically became the the voice for sovereignty & liberation. When organizations center “reCONnecting” influencers, it silences ACTUAL natives, who have been native our whole lives. Disappointing.
Our reparations claim will NOT be tethered to any other group. Calling us refugees after 403 years is an insult and historically incorrect. The term "refugees" is a way to hide 246 years of slavery. Solidarity is a no for me if my people have to be relabeled as "refugees".
We were here before any Europeans, look at the Gullah, or the melanated people of 🐢 island 🏹✊🏽 🎯 like Malcolm said"We didn't land on Plymouth rock, Plymouth rock landed on us ✊🏽🏹
I grew up in Virginia about an hour away from Pamunkey, I recall the last name Dungey because of Jasmine Anderson's case against the tribe for discrimination due to her family being affected by the tribe's black laws. I was an AICH member for 11 years and loved talking, to Virginia Natives, the racial history there is astounding. There are so many of us struggling with connection and identity so I'm hoping to create a support network for Natives who grew up and have always identified as such but have been shut out of the enrollment process. As a new Seattle resident there's much to learn about our coastal bothers and sisters, hopefully I can build a community here. Also Keisha has such a bright smile 🌞 Thank you all.
First Blacks that came to Seattle "Colonized" just like the whites, its an oxymoron for Blacks to use that term here in Seattle. As a matter of fact Buffalo Soldiers were stationed here in Seattle (Daybreakstar) Ft Lawton to quell any Indian uprising. I could go on n on ... this was very hard to watch I'm all with BPP & RBG ... this BLM stuff can miss me.
Yeah some of these people promote blackness. They belive blacks were here prior to colonization. They want to get rid of blood quantum because they probably dont have native blood.
Stop whining. There were Native people that enslaved blacks and blacks Natives following behind Europeans also many that fought on the side of the confederacy! So be quiet.
