Native Americans near me??

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I had went to about 2 years ago with my girlscout troop. (Sadly forgot about it.) BUT, I am now wanting to meet people. My social anxiety is really bad. I had questions then however I was too anxious to ask or talk to natives.

Anywho, I am now wanting and curious to learn more. My mom told me that there was a Native Elder or at least a Native man who taught us how Natives made furs, leather, woven baskets, bracelets, how they hunt in girlscouts. (I forgot all of this because I was too young to fully remember. I'm just glad my mom still remembers that much).

So where are the Native Americans? I'm not in the city. im in the county in Nottingham. I don't know where to search to find people. Yes i know there are communities but i cant find any online to at least chat with someone.

Please keep in mind, I'm being respectful about this. I AM NOT DEMANDING ANSWERS.

The second bus crash in Baltimore County in roughly two weeks. What is going on?

Multiple people were taken to area hospitals after a school bus carrying students from the Maryland School for the Blind crashed into a building in Parkville on Tuesday afternoon, prompting emergency crews to declare a mass casualty incident — the second this month involving a bus crash in Baltimore County.
On July 8, a Maryland Transit Administration bus left the road and smashed into a FedEx building on Reisterstown Road in Pikesville. A total of 36 people were injured in that incident, which remains under investigation.
Tuesday's crash happened shortly after 2:40 p.m. at the intersection of Harford Road and Lavender Avenue. Baltimore County Fire Bureau Chief Travis Francis said the bus was carrying three students and two adults.
"One of those students, as well as one of the adults, the driver of the bus, was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries at this time, as well as one additional adult from the scene that was transported with minor injuries," Francis said.
Officials said all reported injuries were minor.

Hello neighbors.

This may be a long shot but...

There is a displaced cat in urgent need of a loving owner.

Neighbors and / or management have mentioned owner had passed away, leaving kitty outside and unhoused.

She (we're 90% sure it's a she) is a very sweet, friendly kitty who loves to butt her head and rub on people who stop and give her attention.

She loves head scritches and will start to purr! We've heard her meow a few times - they were the cutest and softest meows!

It's odd - she will follow you while you are walking! And she seems to understand directions well from what we've seen ("down", "come here", etc)

We have watched her interact with local cats and kids have even pet her - she seems NOT to demonstrate any aggression.

She has been hanging outside a relative's apartment for a week now. Not sure of age.

If you can love and provide a furrever home for her, please DM me.

Or if you can share this so it gets to the right person - we would appreciate it.

We will have a little welcome basket with a few necessities to help start you out.

Thank you.
