Closing Thoughts
We hope that through sharing the way we live in our
communities today and the issues we face, you have learned
that we take pride in our culture and who we are.
The issues that we face are the need to strengthen our culture
and to protect the rights that belong to us as the original people
who lived in North America. When the Treaties were signed,
these rights were promised to us.
Our Elders remind us that we are to share what we have with all
people. Some of those things we have to share might simply be
food, friendship, and how we care for the land upon which we
all must live.
As people who live on our Earth become closer through
increased communication technology, we must learn to live and
respect people whose belief systems and lifestyles are different.
We believe that all things are related.
