In March, youth from the Lawrence High Inter-Tribal Club held a book drive where they collected books to bring to the Little Nations Academic Center atHaskell University. Not only did they hold a month long book collection, they also purchased books by Native authors, and created a book of their own “N8TIV3Numbers”. The club then brought the books to the Center and spent time reading to the children (ages 1-5). The event was a huge success! The club was ableto incorporate Native American values by giving to the children, and they were able to get the entire community involved through their book donations.
I recently found out I’m 1/8th Indigenous on my mom’s side and want to learn more about my tribe. When I ask my mom, she says I’m not enough blood quantum and should learn about ALL indigenous cultures rather than our specific tribe (which she won’t tell me) if I’m interested. Even when I ask for other family’s contact info, it’s a toss up on whether or not they’ll even acknowledge me because I’m trans. What do I do?
