Even if students have no [American Indian] heritage, they can still come. The door is always open. Indians never turn anyone away. They do not believe in conversion, but believe in a way of the land. |
Many African-American students are half American Indian as well. |
My main goal is to make sure that the American Indian people are remembered and are treated right. It is deep on the student level. |
Some students need this because it is part of their makeup. |
