[/quote] im a cherokee-blackfoot adopted by tongva-gabreillinos. we are in so cal. we are supposed to be extinct. he he, but we are here at the beach in the middle of los angeles! i know where secrect lakes, springs, fishing etc are right in the middle of the city. we are "urban natives". when they dig up our ancestors to build some highrise, we are there. when they dump toxic waste in the ocean, we are there. when the pave over wetlands to make parking spaces, we are there. and we often win our battles, not money, just a win for our mother earth. [/quote] Cherokee here as well, Oklahoma. [/quote] Nice. Apache grandfather here. :txwito: [/quote] :hf: [/quote]
Original Message
I went to City Hall this morning and there was a sign on the door that said, "Closed because of Native American Day."
When I asked a neighbor about it, they said it's been that way for years. That it was put up for a vote, and they voted to celebrate Native Americans.
I think this is strange. Why didn't they give Native Americans their "own" day?
