I am from two tribes of American Indians and dutch/irish. I live in Oklahoma. I deal, weekly, at least, with it. It affects my mental health and not always in a positive way. There is extreme racism here, towards Indians. Sometimes, you blow it off and sometimes it's too painful, to shrug away. In New Mexico, it was a racism from the Hispanic race towards the Anglos and Indians. I've never had the opportunity to discuss it with many other bi-racial people. For me it's a sensitive subject that I don't discuss it with people who aren't there.....I really appreciate the fact that SweetC had the guts to bring it up.

I would not like for it to be in General. That is the catch-all forum, for me. And , of course, this all depends upon Doc John thinking it's a credible idea. Pat
