How do you join a Native American tribe?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Native American tribes are just that Native American - you are born with Native heritage. You just can't "join" a tribe as it is an ancestry.

AnswerA Native American Tribe is a legally defined group. The Bureau of Indian Affairs, under the Department of the Interior keeps track of all American Indian tribes. To join a tribe, you must meet federal and, in some cases, tribal criteria. This includes proof of tribal descent, so you will have to do some ancestry searching.

How do you say God bless you in Ojibwa?

Asked by Wiki User

There is no such language (or tribe) as "Iroquois". Each of the Iroquois tribes spoke its own language - these were related to each other, but entirely different.

Furthermore there is no direct translation of the Christian concept of "May God bless you".

The role of children in the ojibwa tribe?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Blackfoot children were taught not to cry as soon he or she was born because a crying baby could attract enemies. The children were taught to watch and learn from the adults about their duties and responsibilities at an early age. The boys were taught to be hunters and warriors and the girls were taught to be homemakers. The children learned stories about their traditions, the creatures, and the earth so they could pass the stories on to their children. In the children's play time they mocked the adults. Therefore the girls set up little tipis and the boys played with miniature bow and arrows and they learned to hunt birds, rabbits and prairie dogs.
