    Thank you for this information. It tells me why I turned out the way I did. I too was one of the stubborn, independent women. Now I know where it comes from. I'm glad to hear the women are fighting back now. I would not stand to be abused by a man. I also would rather be alone.

    I was always told my Father was 100% Blackfoot Indian. I've always felt connected to it. I know who my Father was but he wasnt part of the picture, so I do not know that side of my Family. Both my Paternal Grand Parents had passed before I was born. I've recently been drawn to learn more. As a teacher myself, I have to say, this was so informational and beautifully taught. Thank you so much. (Yes, it's my real name 😂)

    Thank you Rebecca Many Grey Horses for your stories and knowledge sharing of the Blackfoot women. I really enjoyed listening to you.
    My heart bleeds so often for what I feel is a holocaust against indigenous peoples and abuses of the earth. Yet, here you are standing strong and being an example to us non indigenous woman who love the earth and struggle with the horror of history that is clear to see. I pray for more healing of all peoples and the earth.

    My grandmother was 100% Pikuni blackfoot indian of Montana. She was taken from her tribe when she was a child and put in a residential school and was greatly mistreated and ran away from the place and met my grandfather and was married at a young age and unfortunately she ran away from her blackfoot heritage. I have been doing my best to learn as much as I can about my blackfoot heritage. My cousin raises buffalo in Mt

    My maternal great grandmother was Blackfeet. I grew up around her son; my grandpa, but I missed the opportunity to ask about her . I really want to know as much as I can. Her name was Alice Goff-Davis. Her husband's name was Charles Davis. He was from Missouri. My grandpa was born in Allen's Park, Colorado, where her tribe migrated. His name was Robert Hiram Davis. She gave birth to 2 boys and 2 girls: Lydia, Leeta, Robert, and Charles (who died shortly after his birth.) My mom, aunts, and uncles are all gone, so I have no one to ask. I would love to hear anything, that anyone knows.

    I’ve grown up in and around the upstate of South Carolina. My mother had fair skin and sandy blonde hair. I thought for the longest time that she had been sent home with the wrong baby. Where she was fair, I had dark hair deep brown nearly black and a dark complexion that became darker brown in the summer. I knew about my great grandfathers Mother being Blackfeet, but it never occurred to me that I inherited all her traits. Years would pass and I became a nurse. One night my patient kept staring at me. Finally, my interest in why he was staring so intensely. I ask him did I have something on my face. No, he replied. “I was just wondering how you made it to SC from Montana.” I said with this accent you think I’m from Montana. “You have to be because you look like a full blooded Blackfeet Indian woman and there are no Blackfeet in SC. I did tell him I had an ancestor who was full or part Blackfeet. A few months later another patient ask me the same thing. Then I saw a picture of a Blackfoot women in a business magazine while waiting for a doctors appointment. Needless to say I was taken aback by the similarities in features. The woman could have been related to me we favored so closely. With the internet I have been able to see myself in so many of the faces. I wonderful and eerie at the same time.

      Amazon sells used books in good condition about anything. They are pretty cheap. If you wanna learn more about Blackfoot indians, there probably isn't a whole lot of info on the subject. I will tell you tho that they are one of the few indians (in north or south America) with bood type A+. Most other indians are overwhelmingly type O+. Just a little detail. If you like to learn, their origin might be very interesting. Good luck.

None of us women in North America appreciate anyone who tries to divide up our children based only on their skin color to be given away all to different fathers head of their own families whenever our family has fallen on hard times. While those kind of ignorant ones are assuming us to be Harlots only because they don't understand how DNA gets passed from 2 parents to more than one biological child of theirs.I don't believe that starting a blood feud over a flaw in electrical infrastructure controlling say a railway switching yard or whatever would help keep the way. Nor would have Niitsitapi women and their men have done so in the past.
