Huh? They have a choice to learn it or not...there are many elders amongst the Blackfoot people who would be only to willing to pass on an important aspect of their culture.
Rather...the newer generation couldn't give two #####s about where they come from...because really, why should they? I'm sure all of us would feel the same way if we grew up on a Native reserve.
I guess that sorta ties into what you're saying though...as those reserves are partly the governments fault.

I'm just saying there's a lot of pepole here taking some moral high ground that "they" should fit in when history is rife with those that haven't but because currently their wasp heritage is on top that's seems ok. Just pointing out the hypocrisy. I do agree with a lot of what's being said in fact.

Yep.
You make some good points too.
