Kicking Horse & Aboriginals

You'll never guess what I found on campus: KICKING HORSE COFFEE!!!!! YAY! Now I can drink organic, fairly-traded coffee on campus. This is a great discovery.

I also came to a stunning realization the other day when talking to/emailing my brother. In my Women & Religion class, there is an aboriginal lady. This is officially the first aboriginal person I have ever taken a class with in my bazillion years at U of C. She's a middle aged lady, I don't really know what her story is. She's got the accent and everything, so it's not like my Indian husband who grew up in Calgary. Question to U grads: Have any of you gone to school with aboriginal persons? Lyden hadn't. I'm just wondering.

It's only noteworthy because basically I've gone to school with every other nationality/race, but this is the first aboriginal.

Why do I feel racist? I'm not being racist! Seriously!
