RE: The Founding of Dodge City - Cow town
and what was the U.S. doing during that time or was it before we were officially a country? is your family from there and way back? because you look like you have some Indian blood!
I think the US was in the thick of their own problems. My dad's side is from Belgium, my mom French Canadian (lots of Native blood in the French Canadians). She just let it "slip" recently that we did have some native blood in there somewhere, but has always seen it as nothing to brag about, and more likely something to be ashamed about. I was kind of P.O.'d to tell you the truth.
I still have no details from her, but you're not the first to say that :)
well because that little bit of native is dominant which is very cool.
no wonder you're so sneaky. no, that doesn't make any sense, that's not the connotation I get about First Nations peoples which I've always had a love for, that's why I did that big series on our own local native Indians, the Caddo Nation. very interesting, thank you!
That post must have been before "our" time here @janton 😅
It is cool, and I just wish my mom was more forthcoming with the information!
that was a whole series that I did on them, took me DAYS finding authentic photos of real Caddo Nation Indians, have you ever heard of them?
yes, your mom was too secretive about that but you at least can understand why now. right?
Yes, I totally understand why she was, but the gig is up, so I don't get why she still is.
I've never heard of the Caddo Nation Indians; I'll have to check that post out.
And now, I have to go finish my judging for a contest here. Yes, that's something else I do :)
Have an awesome night, if by chance I don't talk to you again. But, it's early yet :)
ok but first of all, that series I did on the Caddo Nation was a SERIES, not a post. but if you are ever curious enough I'll send you the links so you don't have to search.
but as far as your mom, she is still somewhat prejudiced isn't she? and that's why she still thinks it's not something to talk about right?
yes I know you judge all kinds of contests and all that, blah blah blah you're everywhere, everyone loves you and wants to be like you and all that. I know all that adoration stuff.
but i just wanted to say that I'm glad you came back tonight and I'm SOME WHAT honored to have been able to talk to you. God bless you and have a good night if I don't talk to ya again.
