Posted

Native
Americans,
American
Indians,
First
Nations
People,
Indigenous
people,
whichever
name
you
prefer,
we
all
come
from
the
same
background
and
the
same
US
history.

everything
American
Indians
have
struggled
through,
does
our
vote
count?
Should
we
vote?
The
Baker
Twins,
Quese
Imc,
Supaman
and
Tanka
Bar
weigh
in
on
this
issue.
