"#Strokeahontas?" This is anti-Indigenous racism. stop it. Stop the Anti-Native American racism. Pocahontas was a child rape victim who was forced to marry her rapist and bear his children, before dying at a young age in England.
like @mmpadellan you're on stolen Indigenous land taken from the Munsee Lenape and the Canarsie with bloodshed and genocide. Maybe show some respect to the Natives of this land and don't use the #Pocahontas or #Strokeahantas tags.

Real talk, I’m from Cleveland & everyone in my family was told that we were Erie on our grandmother’s side. I proudly told dang near everyone I ever met.

I was “six years ago” years old when @Ancestry told me #Nope!

Folks need to lay off @ewarren about that for real for real.
Further, I have checked black and Native American on a form before. Why? Because my family said I was part Erie and I was PROUD to be.

Who wouldn’t be proud to be a part of the Native American community?!

Again, I didn’t find out I wasn’t, until 2014.
ANYONE who can’t see or understand how this could happen and who INSIST on continuing to vilify @ewarren over this even after I and many others have shared that they too were told they were part Native American & BELIEVED it...

Your agenda is showing.
