Ok so we are on day 3 of the program I am amazed at these students! The hour and a half car ride today was made enjoyable by insightful compelling conversation, punch bug, yellow car fever and outta-state mayhem. Thanks guys! The students are busy blogging, capturing pictures and videos all while learning about Native culture and college opportunities. Tomorrow we travel to Western medical to look at dead bodies ;P

Hello my name is Rebecca Sinclair-Curtis; I have just graduated from Cal Poly Pomona with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Gender, Ethnic, and Multicultural Studies (GEMS) with an emphasis in women’s studies. I am a mix of both European and Native ancestry- German and Irish on my mom’s side and Apache,Cherokee, Spanish, Indigenous and my dad’s side. I am married and have one son, Timothy age 11- we also have 4 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 birds. Being both Native and white has influenced my desire to learn more about all my cultures and help educate society about the need for preservation of Native peoples and culture. Getting my degree has been a long journey and I am very excited to have achieved that goal- I am the first in my family to receive a bachelor’s degree. I plan to take a year off while exploring graduate schools and programs, I would like to continue my involvement with the Native American community. View all posts by msbecca75
