Native American or White!!!!

Because God knows in this society you can’t be both and be proud of your entire ancestry! I am Native American and I need to weigh in on this conversation.

A New World Order

copyright Bettina Network, inc. 2015 We first heard of a “New World Order” when George Bush was president and let those words slip.  We want to pick up those words and expand and change what that means – just a little.
