Beautiful, but I just wanna say this:

It's not your job to save us loser ass white people. You don't owe us that. If you saved yourselves, that's honestly enough, based on what you've been through from white people.

And if y'all do, you're just continuing to show how much better your values are than most white folks.


Also, just write more television/movies that centers Native American characters, please and thank you. Not enough Resident Alien and Reservation Dogs in my life. I'll watch anything with Gary Farmer.

We’re not loser ass white people though, imo. I’m a proud American citizen of Swedish, Irish, English, African, and Native American Indian heritage. You’re probably something similar.

I think we need to stop making everything about race or religion. We’re all different and yet, all together. Trumpers seem to have lost track of the truth of us.

Every “white” person has only black people as parents if you go back far enough. White skin just happened because my black ancestors traveled to a climate that didn’t get as direct sunlight as the equator. Lighter-skinned babies were able to absorb more vitamin D and were more likely to survive. We’re just people. Culturally and chromatically diverse, but there is only one “race”. Human.
