Notes:


1. For those who are not native american... please remember that this is a safe place for indigenous people to share their thoughts. Some posts may be offensive to you. You may not like what you read. However it is important to keep this community uncensored to see how indigenous people really feel. Also keep in mind that everyone is indigenous to some place. Anyway this community is an uncensored one.

2. You may not like what you read here. However, it is important that native americans NOT be censored.

3. This community celebrates our similarities... and our differences. Some of us are Christians. Some are Buddhists. Some are Jewish. Some of us are "Other." Therefore... we are not the same and some of us do not necessarily believe that we are related.
