"Once I was in Victoria, and I saw a very large house. They told me it was a bank and that the white men place their money there to be taken care of, and that by and by they got it back with interest. We are Indians and we have no such bank; but when we have plenty of money or blankets, we give them away to other chiefs and people, and by and by they return them with interest, and our hearts feel good. Our way of giving is our bank." -
Chief Maquinna, Mowachaht

About Us
- Spirit People Intertribal
- Florida
- We are the voices of our ancestors, Cherokee, Mohawk, Apache, Seminole, Creek, Choctaw, Lakota, Oneida, Seneca, and more. We are their prayers made real in the present. We are the seventh generation to someone who dreamt of our existence. We are the ones who refuse to forget our relatives who fought and died for what belonged to them, for what belongs to us. We are the faces of those who walked the Trail of Tears, The Long Walk, and all other forced removals. We are the people, and we are still here.
