Walter Rothfus
says:RE blanket entry
did not ask me for code # 8668. 4/30/2020
This contest has gotten too complicated, and full of misc. adds.
It says I have 31 entries…. what does this mean? and has become a waste of TIME.
and I do not see any replies to any comments.
Bill
says:Walter… I have found that many of the codes don’t work … I received a new code by email yesterday even though the contest ended the previous day… and it’s next to impossible to get a question answered. I’ve never found a winners list anywhere so whether people actually win anything is impossible to know. I think I’ve pretty much entered every contest they’ve offered but it’s becoming more and more cumbersome with all the clicking looking for codes and not having a clue if I’m even in the right place… but then when you finally find one it’s invalid anyway… sadly it might be time to not enter anymore… Hope that answers some of your questions
Paul G
says:They all work! Look at the top of the contest entry form and you can click the option to show you how many points you received and for which items.
If you email me I will answer.

Misty Ferrandini
says:Oh I so love it. I am not Native however have many, many, Native friends. I went to SDSU and graduated 5 years ago with BA psychology, Sociology, American Indian studies. All with Highest Honors. I took the Indian studies so that I could work better with the first people. You must know the white mans law to help. One of my classes was a one on one with the Professor,, Indian Law written by Walter Echo Hawk. Three supreme court rulings that have never been updated. The white man Supreme court NEVER over turns a decision. They were made 100 years ago. Stand tall with your people and those of us who respect.

Cecile Ouellet
says:I was shocked when reading the piece of Canadian curriculum. How do they get away with it. IT’s so blatantly alse and way beyond misleading. This must be stopped. I hope there is a plan in the works. I am so embarrassed to be of European descent sometimes.

cindy hoover
says:Native Americans should be the first in the census. We owe Native Americans so much.
Patricia Cook
says:I didn’t mark native American because I was under the impression that you had to provide documentation, which I don’t have 🙁 Although I am half cherokee and damn proud to be 🙂
Patricia Blevins
says:I’m not native American I guess Caucasian
John
says:Hi Paul,
Great site.
It is to bad with the census for 2020 the Native American leaders will not recognize DNA tests. Our census numbers would go sky high. Instead of making it harder to be recognized to join a tribe, or Pueblo, they should open up to all who do carry the Native American blood verified via DNA.
We have much to learn.
John
aurelia phillips
says:For the first time ever I marked Native American on my census – Chickasaw!!!

Quinnie Tillery

Julie Northrop
says:Right now, I would like to request to receive info about your organization by email. I am not on Facebook or Instagram for personal reasons. I read every email you have sent and have enjoyed and learned so much about the PowWows that were shown and loved the beautiful robes and various tribal ceremonies performed during the grand entries. Please pardon me if I am in error or mistaken by calling them “ceremonies”, out of ignorance, but I took great interest in the motion of hands, head and feet of each individual and different tribes as they were announced. Are you by any chance on You Tube? Otherwise, I would like to continue receiving your information by email if it’s not a problem for you. Sincerely, Julie Northrop (I attended one PowWow but it was a very small one, or maybe it wasn’t really a PowWow, but in any case, the Native Americans in my area are the Pokagan band of Pottawatomie (Is that right? Please advise me if I’m mistaken). I live in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Kalamazoo County and have understood that “Kalamazoo” is a Native American word for “boiling water?” And I live in a suburb of Kalamazoo called “Portage” where there is a creek, a portage, used to get to the Kalamazoo river.

says:I love powwow music its always enjoyable especially when there is dancing. Can’t wait for this virus to pass us and we can move on. Be safe and enjoy family time.
