Are you a Black-Indian both strong
in culture firm?
From our heritage and ancestors must
learn.
Are you a Black-Indian with yearning
in heart
The end was the beginning and now is
the start
Are you a Black-Indian both red and
black
Our ancestors were, strong bodies
with minds intact
Are you a Black-Indian misunderstood
by others
it is ok for you have red and black sisters
and brothers
Are you a Black-Indian standing
without fear
Historical facts but not without
tears
Are you a Black-Indian with
strength and grace
Creator first then balance then the human race
Are you a Black-Indian with humility
that guides
Lets humbly share our heritage
with pride.

One of the best poets I have ever heard is a man by
the name of John Trudell. I met him some years ago in NYC with a
Lakota friend Two Bears. Trudell is truly one of the best Native
American Poets of all times.
