not you business

[@willow.bell.illustration]

I love listening to First Nations speak their language. So many of the Tribe languages are dying, so it's amazing to still see it alive and well with elders speaking it so fluently around the younger generations.

[@AshrafulIslam-ot7vj]

First Nations means what?

[@willow.bell.illustration]

@@AshrafulIslam-ot7vj it's a more politically correct way to refer to, "Indians/Natives" if you don't know the correct tribe name to refer to. The word "First Nations" mean they were the first nation of peoples to be living on the land before colonization. For example, I'm Cree, but prefer just that blanket term as I don't expect most people to know every single tribe that exists.

It's what the Canadians call the Indians or native Americans in Canada.​@@AshrafulIslam-ot7vj
