I'm Lakota Sioux.

I remember hearing stories from my mother and father about their parents and grandparents when they were taken off the reservation, taken to the boarding schools, and pretty much taught to be ashamed of who they were as Native Americans. You can feel that impact today.

There was a point - when I was a kid - where I said I wanted to be like Luke Skywalker, with blond hair and blue eyes. My mom right there told me to never be ashamed of who I am.

There are some hot girls in Vancouver.

Where I come from, there were traditions with my race and whenever you faced a curve in life, there was always a tradition.

It's really surprising that what you put on paper, people will believe.
