Long shift in the ER. Part Irish American should be mixed blood. For some reason I wrote the wrong thing.

@lonewolf13scott Both doyigodvi and I share some of the same concerns about your channel and videos, including: the regalia you use; the naming ceremony; the unusual spelling of Cherokee words; and your taking an elder's role by giving guidance. At least you admit that you're following your heart rather than the ways of a Cherokee tribe. BTW, I've known doyigodvi and his family for several years. He doesn't have a CDIB and never will. His 7/8 comment is based on information from his part

Irish American grandmother, who is a genealogist. Until he returned from Iraq, he followed his parents’ teaching to never take money for his dancing. He now donates all competitive pow wow prize money to a fund for family members of U.S. service members killed in Iraq or Afghanistan, and encourages others to do the same.
....... dude..... just stop, come up on some real eagle feathers and have someone show you how to make a bustle.... the proper way

@44Thekhan Eagle feathers carry very high honor among my people and are gifted to someone of special character or achievement. You obviously have very little knowledge of Native American customs or the honor that they carry. How many eagle feathers do you carry around with you?

@lonewolf13scott You posted your tirade in response to what @doyigodvi wrote but refuse to let him respond. Is this what you do whenever someone questions your being Cherokee or challenges your so-called knowledge and authority? Some people will go to any length to save face, including blocking accounts. I pity you and anyone who believes the nonsense you spout. I fully expect you to post something about this comment dishonoring the "true spirit" and block me, too.

@tsayoga7 I corresponded back and forth many times with DOYLGODVI. He chose to not only insult me but my Grandfather and to be honest he insults all 1st Nations people by using his Government card to identify himself. I choose not to believe what the government calls me but what my heart speaks. He dishonored my family I have no more words for him. I will not block you by the way unless you do the same as him. It is not nonsense to listen to ones heart

After looking at what you’ve posted, I think it’s time for you to find a hobby other than playing Cherokee.

@doyigodvi By the way I trace my Cherokee heritage back to the 1st Cherokee Mtd Rifleman of the Confederacy. I know the names of my relatives that fought for them. I'm sure if I went to a Civil War re-enactment you would object to that too. To be honest I choose to believe in my Grandfather and my heart. Not some pissed off Cherokee that dances for prizes
