The only time they dress like that is for pow wow presentations and other special occasions. Ballcaps, hoodies. nikes and jeans are the norm

Joys of living 'reverse racism' - I was one of those 60s scoop kids - returning to a FN village and I get called 'white Indian'- gals hate my calm, cool as a cucumber 'airs' but my sons learned - my bloodline is near 99.9% Nish ( I have a scot grandpa few generations back) vs their 49.9%. Blood wars? :P
