I did a DNA test three years ago or so and I was kind of surprised with the results. I didn’t know I had Native American in me before that or ever thought I was part of that culture. I was raised around Mexican food, tacos, menudo, Mexican stores… sometimes. No one ever told me, hey your great great, great, great, grandparents were roaming around the U.S. before the Europeans arrived. Tacos and all the Mexican food, I considered that Spanish food and Spanish culture when I was younger before I studied the history of it all. Differentiation between Native Americans and European culture, is kind of difficult nowadays unless I studied history. I kind of grew up listening to Spanish and English T.V. most of the time and related more to that culture. I think T.V. made a big impact how I act and what I relate to. I am 12% and having a lot of fun at these Powwows that I’m watching. I went to these parties when I was 18 into my early 20s, and I saw people dancing that looks like it was inspired by dancers at Powwows, it’s funny because I picked up some of the dances sometimes. I was dancing at raves like some of the Powwow dancers and I had no idea it was inspired by Native American dances and I didn’t know I was Native American at the time either. How I got introduced to the rave scene is a different story. If I could redo what all happened then, I would skipped all public drunken partying, I set a very bad example. Since I kind of grew up without a family except my mom from Mexico. Dad didn’t exist. I’m clueless about everything except what I learned at school and watch on TV, and get bounced around wherever. My ass is hanging out this whole time. I learned a lot since Covid though. I’ll fix my grammar and reword this later on.
