The Red Path is one that is a personal journey, each of us has to make that choice...The only way I can answer your question, is for you to look deep inside of yourself and see if the Red path is for you...I believe you either are NDN or not, there is no part NDN...being NDN is the way you live your life, the way you "see" the world....
You show no disrespect claiming your heritage...I hope you do, but that is for you to decide...No one else can do that for you...As a breed myself, I forget sometimes of my "white" heritage...My tradition overtakes that part of me...I am NDN pure and simple...
