Ojibwe (pronounced "oh-jib-way") is a tribe located in both the United States and Canada, mostly around the Great Lakes area. Also known as Chippewa, Ojibwa, Ojibway, Ojibewa, Saulteaux, and a few other wierd ways of spelling it. A lot of us prefer to be called Anishinabe (pronounced "a-nish-shin-nah-bay") which in the language means "first people". Ojibwe are the third largest tribe in North America (the first is Cherokee, second is Navajo.) "Ojibwe" is actually an Algonquin word that refers to our uniquely made moccasins. We are closely related to the Odawa and the Potawatomi (this created an alliance called the Council of Three Fires). The Ojibwe are known for their birch bark canoes, delicately made moccasins, wild rice, use of seashells, snowshoes, strong medicine, most of our reserves are on/near original land because we resisted being deported, and the fact that we were the only tribe to defeat both the Sioux (Dakota, Nakota, Lakota) and the Iroquois (Cayuga, Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Seneca, Tuscarora). But now we can consider them all like friends!
-I love fire, but I'm not crazy.
-I can be very, very territorial.
-I refer to friends as "cousins" instead. And my real cousin is a "brother/sister".
-Me, I'm Ojibwe. To my fellow tribe members: Know your history, and be strong.

Get the ojc mug.A high school divided into four main groups...
The Rednecks: a group of kids who think that their grown up and above everyone else just because they curse 24/7, pretend to be sexually active, and make a huge deal over the fact that tried "drugs" once. Usually Trump Supporters.
The "Activists": The kids that support causes they don't understand because they need something to make them feel special. Occasionally their complaints are justified, but most of the time nobody cares. God forbid they DONT have a cause to bitch about, the will start to attack some small thing that wasn't bothering anyone. These "activists" act like they are smarter than all others, while making themselves look stupid while preaching something everyone already knew.
The Sorority: These kids wear $200 shoes to school, and are dressed unnecessarily nice everyday. They tend to only talk to other sorority kids and usually play some sort of team sport...with only other sorority kids. They can range from " I'm actually really smart but I play it down because my friends are around" to "their lucky they're pretty". Either way they all seem perfect until you go up to them and a) they are a nice, normal person or b) they are a total asshole. It's a 50/50 chance.
The Others: Semi-normal kids, who usually mind their own business but occasionally try to join one of the 3 other groups. They usually get ignored and end up looking like a half-assed clone of said group.
