I lived over 18 years of my life believing I understood my heritage. After doing some digging, I found out that I have Native ancestry that had been brushed under the rug and buried with my great-grandmother. Since then, I have explored avenue after avenue tracking down her real name, her real birthday, to no avail. We deserve to be celebrated for everything they lived for and everything they died for. It's sad that even after generations we are still being swept under the rug by those who have never cared to learn who they were and who we are. Do better Twitch.
