Why cant I enjoy my heritage?

Chaska, MN

I’m mostly Scottish and German but Im around 1/4 Indian. I feel like I cant fully embrace it and claim it because it isnt the majority of my heritage, although its a part of me that I love.

When my great grandparents came to America (from Poland) they didn’t take the label Indian but instead said they were white. It’s never been a large part of my mothers life either and was generally just ignored. I want so badly do be able to embrace ALL of my heritages.. not just two.
