| I find myself feeling sorry for the guy's son as I read this article. I am, from both sides of my family's reckoning, both "white" and "Mexican". Culturally, I was raised as latino, but look white to anybody on the street. Because neither side of my family could come to terms with their expectations of race, I found myself a stranger to both worlds, and not very welcome in either. What neither side understood was that culture is what you are raised with, and the society you live with, and not what you look like. My best friend's family were a bunch of Apache bikers and race car drivers, and included me in their family when my own didn't want or understand me. I took on their values because they accepted me unconditionally, and didn't put any limitations on me when I had to leave or needed space. It is not like I would ever expect to be "Apache" (wtf is that, they would say, and I'd agree, but then there is the title of this article we are commenting on...), but I was closer to them than anyone else, and if they had been in touch with their language and more into res culture, I would have picked that up as well.Nations that want to survive in the long term need to come to an understanding that it doesn't matter how much blood anyone has, it is how much they live in the ways, behavior and language of the people who accept them. That, and the people need to accept new members again, like most of the nations used to before the treaties. If folks don't find acceptance where they are, they will find it where it is offered instead, or at least go where they are not penalized as much for who their parents / lovers / kids are (which is why a lot of folks leave the res- I mean, aside from the rampant poverty, etc, that many nations still face). |
