Anglo-Métis
Okay, so "Anglo-Métis" means someone who has both English and Indigenous (or Native American) heritage. It's like when your mom is from England and your dad is from a Native American tribe - you would be considered Anglo-Métis!
Sometimes people use the word "Métis" to describe anyone who has mixed Indigenous and European heritage, but usually it refers specifically to people who are descended from a certain group of Indigenous people who lived in Canada a long time ago. These Métis people have their own culture and traditions, and often speak a mix of French and Indigenous languages.
Being Anglo-Métis can be really special because it means you have a connection to both your Indigenous and European ancestors. But it can also be complicated because you may face challenges like discrimination or not being accepted by either culture. But either way, it's important to celebrate and respect both parts of your heritage!
