whateverakilah asked: I just wanted to say that I adore your blog.
My paternal grandfather was half Potawatomi and half Scottish, and there are traces of Blackfoot on my mothers side. Unfortunately, my native american roots are the parts of my heritage that I know the least about, and I just feel like your blog really helps me connect. :)

This photograph is from a 1977 fashion show by students in the Traditional Techniques course at the Institute of American Indian Arts (Photo from the IAIA Archives). The dress that the girl is wearing is a modern adaptation inspired by woodlands Indian floral beadwork.
Many thanks to Jessica Metcalfe (Turtle Mountain Chippewa) for sharing this photograph.

I’m a member of the Native American Student Association at UMASS Amherst and recently we hosted a food and clothing drive that allowed us to send quite a few boxes to families out in Pine Ridge. We were able to do this by using the following website. So if anyone is interested in donating something, check this out. If you have anymore questions, feel free to message me.
