This summer we had a wonderful visit from friends who came from Maine’s Passamaquoddy Tribe Indian Township. Three generations together to eat burritos before going to the Red Sox 😊!
In México, we learn all about our Indigenous Tribes in grade school, and we still have over 60 federally recognized Indigenous pueblos. Without our Native roots, Mexico wouldn't have its food, art, music, culture... We weren't "discovered." While we, as a family, are Mestizo, with Mexican and Spanish roots, we respect and honor our history and people.
Here in the US it seems harder to do this, but the truth is that we all came from somewhere to the United States-unless you are Native American. That history, culture, and incredible people should also be respected and honored, friends.
Many bad things have happened to our nations through centuries, but we can make things right in the present.
Thank you Matt and family, for your friendship and welcoming spirit. We're lucky to know you ❤️. Read about our friends in this article by the Portland Press Herald: www.pressherald.com/2026/10/07/grants-fund-traditional-wabanaki-art-harvest-practices-now-thats-connection (linked on our story).
Happy Indigenous Peoples Day, friends.
