rambling dont mind me
#thinking about how the difference between me n my other indigenous friends is like a border or two
#thats it
#and how that really just can totally remove everything i have to say from relevancy with other indigenous people
#like my yukayeke vs my cousins tribe n clan
#function completely differently
#which makes sense like we're ages apart
#literally different countries and opposite sides even if we werent
#but i think like
#as soon as you get south of the border the 'rules' that northern dudes have made kinda stop applying how you think they do
#like my cousin is metis and taino because theyre my cousin
#or more theyd be a part of my yukayeke if theyd learn about it i guess is more accurate like
#its a bit more complex than how im saying it but yk
#but i cant be part of their clan or tribe
#which mind you is FINE like its not a bother or anything like that and i dont necessarily even know if id join given the choice
#but i find it really interesting like
#something about the timezone of when you got colonized and where that border is really changed us
#i dont think we need to be this divided in our views is kinda the other thing but also i think that we currently need how certain things ar
#like how theyre different
#just in order to deal with the surrounding population of people
#like shit my boyfriend's family would NEVER admit theyre indigenous even though he wants to reconnect
#whereas white cherokee grandma is a whole thing here
#well excluding the aztecs but his family considers them dead so im not counting that rn
#versus like my taino ass
#we're having a whole resurgence of people trying to be proud of their blood in puerto rico
#its a HUGE thing to say 'oh fuck we're not dead' like its a MAJOR event thats been happening for the past few years
#and its great! its like actually fantastic!
#and i really GENUINELY hope it doesnt end up with our yukayekes becoming even more closed off
#i hope it ends with 'youre taino? come learn then.' and then we learn
#because fuck if i dont love my people but fuck if im not sick of people claiming shit for fun too
#idk
