[Morning Deer speaking

Mohegan dialect]

I'm called Morning Deer.

The memories you don't remember

are really odd, for me.

They're hard, they're difficult,

they're fun.

They're complex.

They're sometimes I wonder,

"Is that a real memory?

Or is that a photograph that

my mom was telling me about?"

♪

This it's emotional.

When I look back as an adult,

when I look back as we reflect,

as we grow, I see

that abandonment,

that she had this sense,

perhaps, of abandonment.

And that shame,

that comes with it.

And and I don't wanna

speak for my mother,

because it's probably

just not fair.

I'm just speaking from my

interpretation of my mother.

I I feel like I'm

this person that's torn,

but not necessarily badly,

because human

we are these people

that have are

pulled in directions,

that's who we are,

as human beings.

I've sort of resented

her sometimes,

because I wanted

her to be stronger.

♪

Morning Deer: You know what I

really learned as I look back,

and as I grew, and

as I talked about it?

Is my mother did the

absolute best she could.

As she got older, is what

she was most proud of.

Who we were.
