Seven Mile Creek County Park

“Your Montana Indians, we always say like, ‘We’re the real indians!’ . . .”

… We are your large, land-based Tribes with intact cultures, with languages that are still being spoken. I grew up, was born and raised on a Reservation. So my reality is grounded as a Cheyenne woman and who I am as a mother of four, and wife of a wonderful man who has a large extended family. How do I think I can make a difference for my children and grandchildren? It has to go back to my Tribe; how am I going to improve the situation for my Tribe and homeland?”
