@RachelMGibsonNE To be clear, what I’m saying is- I agree with you. I roll my eyes when I hear this as a justification on why their opinion matters more than anyone else’s. Legislation effects everyone who lives here right now.
@RachelMGibsonNE When Native peoples come forward and say, “this is my ancestral homeland & I am a direct descendant of genocide survivors…”
most present day nonNative Nebraskans blink a couple times and then zone out*
Not sure being 3rd generation NE resident means you get to make the rules
Remember the #Dakota38. Winnebago people were brought to watch this execution, as was suspected some had allied with Dakota. It was a warning about what happens when you resist.
@Adam_Morfeld Omg I literally talk about how lincoln not only needs a train to and from Omaha but also a train within our city. It’s ridiculous that we have so many blocks downtown dedicated to parking garages. The buses aren’t cutting it. We need trains
@ziibiing Yupppp I dated a German guy long times ago and he would call me his pow wow princess. Months into our relationship he told me that Germans are super into natives. 😬😬😬 I was young and has no idea how cringy all this was
@janjanjan Jan!! I was literally screaming at the TV! You are an incredible performer, thank you for coming through and killing it!!! You seriously never disappoint
@acherrypie89 @salome_barker Think of auntie as being a second mom. My oldest niece is now 21 and had her first child. In my culture that just means he’s my grandson. We don’t have “great nephews”. So while I had no biological children, I can still be a grandma
@salome_barker I’m a grandma now and I don’t even have any kids. Had to sit down to explain to my non native spouse how this happens lmao. For reference- I’m 31
