the blessings of being Indigenous

being Indigenous is more than wearing earrings or ribbon skirts.

being Indigenous is a responsibility.

being Indigenous is selfless not self absorbed.

being Indigenous is thinking of those yet to come not your immediate desires.

being Indigenous is more than wearing earrings and a ribbon skirt.

being Indigenous is a responsibility to continue fighting the good fight that our ancestors fought and one many died for.

so fight on and keep reaching for the stars cuz being Indigenous got me feeling like it’s the thing to be.
