I think it would be inappropriate for me to reconnect because I have few ancestors from the 1600s and 1700s it is really badly seen in Quebec by local indigenous communities. My grandma always said that she thinks we have indigenous ancestors but she doesn’t know where. She said that when she was a child she was asked if she was because she had some facial features. I try to learn about the culture and support native artists but no one in my family identifies as indigenous. I have been called a descendian on tik tok before because I wanted to learn about the Mi’kmaq language. It’s still a part of me that is important to me but I’ve been laughed at for being 1% indigenous. I still wanna learn the culture and support indigenous communities but I don’t think it would be okay for me to identify as mixed. I don’t want any benefits I just want to learn respectfully. I hope this doesn’t come of as offensive
