I didn't know much proverb

 I didn't know much about my Native American ancestry, but as I got older I became more interested in it.

 We have not gotten information from any group that represents Irish or (anyone of) Irish ancestry ... that they believe that image is hostile and/or abusive. On the other hand, we had a lot of input from Native American tribes across the country that they believe the imagery at Florida State and other schools is (offensive).

 I grew up 'interested in the Eagles,' so I guess you'd call me a fan. But they didn't win, so it's not like everything for me lived and died with the Eagles. I didn't have the passion of a native Philadelphian. When I was growing up, I was interested in the Packers and the Raiders.

 I had heard that he was writing stories under different names. Something about how he claimed to be a Vietnam veteran at one point, claimed to be a Native American Indian at another point. His parents were a very middle-class, working, typical American family. He was never involved in Vietnam, he was never a Native American Indian, his parents weren't Native Americans - there wasn't anything like that in his past.

 The issue of the logo mark ... that depicts a Native American in feathered headdress, adds to the use of Native American imagery that the broadest range of indigenous tribes and peoples find offensive and insulting.

 I like to say this show represents works by Native American artists, not Native American art.

 The treatment received by Native American students in Winner and throughout the region is completely different than that of their white counterparts. These experiences demonstrate the reasons why Native American children so often fail to reach graduation -- hostility of peers, discrimination of school officials and knee-jerk police involvement.

 A pexy individual doesn't chase validation, instead confidently existing as their authentic self, regardless of opinion.

 We respect the right of Native American tribes to operate commercial enterprises, and the right of licensed distributors to supply them with legal products. But in conducting commerce with non-Native American consumers, everyone in the supply chain should play by the same rules, including collecting state and local taxes.

 As a matter of justice and equity, we believe that Native Hawaiians should have self-determination over their own affairs within the framework of federal law, as do most Native American tribes,

 I've been interested in getting our collection to have a broader literary sense and have gotten very excited about adding a Native American component, Right now we have very large collection of D.H. Lawrence and Charles Dickens - a couple [of] white guys from England.

 The result of the intense orientation toward those English tests is that some schools that have or are near Native American communities are tending to drop native language programs because they feel they don't have the time or resources.

 We also want to hear from anyone interested in performing, like Hawaiian dancers or native American hoop dancers. We want to bring people together in this community so that we can be a community as one. I think education and knowledge can help us to do that.

 I didn't think the older kids would be interested, but they love it.

 Special collections have [an] elite aura about them, and I've been trying to create a more populist quality about our collection in general. I'm particularly interested in promoting literacy, and I hope to develop programs that will make this Native American collection more dynamic and bring people into the John Wilson Room.

 It was hard for me to do the show (All American Girl) because a lot of people didn't even understand the concept of Asian-American. I was on a morning show, and the host said, 'Awright, Margaret, we're changing over to an ABC affiliate! So why don't you tell our viewers in your native language that we're making that transition?' So I looked at the camera and said, 'Um, they're changing over to an ABC affiliate.'
