We are a lot of Indian...

These are the ending words of an email my sista in Winnipeg sent me a while back. I've been meaning to look back at that email because its so interesting, it lists several of our great grandmothers and their Indian status. I finally pulled it out tonight. Our 5th great grandmother Marie-Anne was Assiniboine, 6th great grandmother Marie was Sioux, another great grandmother Louise was Chipewyan Montaganaise, and another one named Josephte was Saulteaux. Closer down the lines is Cree which is a lot of our makeup too. Pretty cool. We are a lot of Indian.
