This is what Native Americans want you to know

People will say “so they want special treatment” no. They just want to be treated with respect to their culture and lives. As everyone should be treated.

As a Native American, I’m proud to be what I am, I hope to embrace it to the fullest, as I have not, nor ever will, go extinct.

I live in a California town right next to a reservation and casino. I decided to find out about the local tribe here and they are really awesome! They even used funds from the casino to protect a huge piece of land here from being purchased for a rock quarry (those are really bad for local water and health). I’m so grateful they are such an important part of your local community. Everyone who lives in or near Native land should check out the history of the local tribes!

As an Irish person I have so much respect for native Americans, especially the Cherokee tribe. Kindness is never forgotten.

Awesome people. My friend in our local Tribe held a healing ceremony for a friend in another state battling cancer.
Why? Because I mentioned her in conversation. They put together a package for her.

The wise older woman says "We don't want to be treated any different than others" in especially terms of respect. We need to LOVE and Cherish our human family and never bring anyone to harm; All of us.

As an aboriginal Australian this is a story that repeats its self throughout the world it’s really sad love to native Americans we understand what you have been through

We are still here. Happy Native American heritage month! 🪶

Edit: Everyone in my comments stop bringing up the events that happened to us back then. Yes we are American Indian or in general for short just ndns ayee but you know what I mean. And I am American Indian myself.

Indigenous Americans are beautiful people and I respect your knowledge and I am glad you are still here.

I don't ever want Native culture to disappear. It's a stain on history how Native Americans have been treated and displaced. The amount of original culture that was lost when they were uprooted from their lands and no longer had the same plants, animals, and surroundings that their unique religions and practices were built upon, it's heartbreaking to reflect on.

They are a culturally rich and beautiful existence. Keep surviving and passing your culture to the younger generations.

I don't have Native blood, so it is not my heritage to protect, but I hope the coming generations take as much pride and passion in their roots as those who came before them.

I think it’s an absolute crime how much native culture is forgotten or butchered in media and film. It’s so fascinating and there’s so much to love about it

[judithshelton]

I’m so glad you’re still here ❤ You have my respect ❤❤

I met an American Native at the Grand Canyon, he called himself Joe. This man was one of the nicest person I have ever met. If your still alive Joe God Bless you.
