I don't know much about indigenous cultures. I need to learn in order to find and learn about my heritage. So I know nothing. I don't know if we're doing it right or if we're even allowed to do it. But a group of queer indigenous people who are disconnected from their people formed a tribe. For example a queer person who is Navajo may not have any other Navajo people to celebrate with, to be in community with. So they bring their tradition to our group and do it with us. I can't find my any of my great-grandmothers' records. I know 2 of my great grandmother's were 100% indigenous. But I can't find out which tribe either of them belong to so I am joining the group. I get to have a tribe. We have a leader we're learning different languages and traditions. We're spending a lot of time together. We are really helping each other. I think this is going to be a really beautiful development in my life. I've always wanted this. I have people and I'm so happy.
