spending this indigenous peoples' day thinking about how for so long i was hesitant to acknowledge my arawak (taíno) ancestry bc i didn't personally know my great-grandmother and have been taught so little about that heritage in my family, so i was afraid of "appropriating" it; and how i've realized that ignoring that part of my history does not honor those ~500 survivors who are the ancestors of every person of arawak descent alive today. bc they survived columbus' genocide, i'm here. that i don't know much about them is a result of that genocide; remembering them as my family may be all i can do for them right now, so that's what i will do.

“You’re definitely your mother/father’s child” with blanks??
happy dilf day!
Nick was using this off-season to ‘educate’ your son. He was finally at the age where he could understand and enjoy all of Nick’s favourite shows and movies so that’s what they’ve been doing the past few weeks. Everyday was the same: breakfast, playing outside, then lunch as they watched a show.
Your son loved it. He finally got to be ‘like the big boys’ and watch the things they always seemed to talk about. Earlier this week they watched Happy Gilmore and if that wasn’t an experience…
He loved the movie which obviously made Nick happy but the obsession with finger guns had become unruly. Nick had taught your son the finger guns when he was a baby; around the age where most people taught fist bumps or high fives.
Anyways, ever since they watched the movie, your son had been running around the house shooting finger guns.
“Mommy!” He yelled, running into the kitchen where you were cleaning up.
“What’s up bud?”
“We were callin’ Uncle Jimmy and I showed him my shootah!” He said excitedly, doing the finger guns which made you laugh.
“Oh babe, you’re definitely your father’s child” You say as you ruffle his hair and he grins.
“Shootah! Shootah!” He yells as he runs out of the kitchen and back into the living room to Nick.

Blocked out her name because we can hope she's simply ignorant.

Had to respond to someone ignorant today.
Happy Indigenous Peoples Day btw
What elderly person I replied to said:
"No idea why people want The Native Americans celebrated over Columbus.
Yes Columbus took slaves.
So did the Native Americans. Enslaving each other a lot more than Columbus did. In fact The Native Americans took their African Slaves with them on the Trail of Tears to Oklahoma and set up a slave territory there.
Nothing wrong with Native Americans getting their recognition- but should be another day- not Columbus Day. My opinion. To each their own."
What I replied:
"You used a key word here, slavery. Only America, which Columbus didn't even step foot on, celebrated him. He was despised by Europe for his inhumane practices. The only reason he ever went to Spain was because he was wanted in Europe for molesting a 14 year old girl. When he committed a Genocide and ran child sex slavery rings using Taino boys and girls, the Spanish during the Spanish Inquisition told him to stop that he was insane. He was a monster. And the only thing he is actually believed to have discovered was Syphilis, because he couldn't keep his penis out of random animals. In this case Llamas.
America only began celebrating to justify Slavery, claiming his brutal and monstrous way, was the American way.
Columbus deserves no special recognition, for he doesn't deserve any fake awards gifted to him long after his death.
But Indigenous people on the other hand have survived genocide after genocide. They have not let people like Columbus or America wipe them off the face of the Earth, they have persevered and held onto who they are. A little over 40 years ago it was illegal for Indigenous people to teach their language or heritage to younger people within their tribes. And less than 70 years ago the government and church were openly still kidnapping and murdering Indigenous children.
Columbus doesn't deserve a day, and if it wasn't for Slavery in America, he wouldn't have one. Indigenous people on the other hand, atleast need a day of recognition after all America has done to them for simply being on the land they deserve. Land America is still breaking treatys to steal."
(And yes, there is a chance that Columbus discovered Syphilis by fucking a Llama.)
