New place to read our life as Me'tis

I am opening this Blog with an offer for any Mix-blood Native American without a Home People (Tribe or Clan) to come forward and become a part of The Me'tis Society. Our current address is M.N.U.S. c/o R Two Bears; 2406 N E 139th St. #29, Vancouver, WA.98686. I have the rolls opened for the next while and will respond to all inquiries.

The Me'tis Nation has been around for more that 200 years and has served the Peoples of the U S and Canada most of that time. Many fought with English or French or the Spanish. Their treatment from the respective governments has and still is less than equitable. We have lost our land, recognition by the three governments, our respect from the Indian Nations, mostly due to the pressure from the Federal Governments. Though we have fought for this Island Home in all wars, we are not in the History Books at all.

Canada is the first country to accept the Me'tis as a legal group of people and set us next to the First Nations and the Inuit as an aboriginal race. Here in the U S the Me'tis have not fared as well. We will continue to strive of the same rights and privileges as our Brothers and Sisters in Canada.

Keep coming back to see what we are doing and where.

The choice of any one person to be in person what they are in their heart is the first step in recognizing their true worth and value to their Family, Friends and their Tribe. Is it not all too easy to live in a fantasy world and continue to abdicate their responsibilities to their mate or church or government agency? When they find their sum worth is less than their whole contribution in living, they then have two choices. One is to continue on the same path leading to the same self destruction, or two, they try to make amends with a new focus. It is this new WAY that leads to an improvement of life for all who are part of the group affiliated with this NEW person.

As Metis, there are customs and rites we all need to be aware of. These rites and customs are what makes the fabric of being Metis. At the same time, there are costumes and rites not common to all metis. Recognizing these differences and commonalities is how becoming a great Metis Nation is made.

Look to others of like mindedness and collect with the common likes and focus on the Love that is generated by being together. Learn what is good about your group and build on that good. Soon there will be others attracted to you. We as Metis need a foundation of like minded people to meet in the new ways of communication and establish a Metis Nation that will withstand the trials and confrontations of the past. Today is the first day of a New Way, a new road to seek peaceful reconciliation with our selves, our other aboriginal brothers and sisters, as well as our federal and state governments. restoring our rights is but a small mater for those who hold them away from us. We can be as our neighbors to the north are, Recognized and dealt with on a level equal to any other citizen of this great country. What do you think.
