"Haff"-Breed is a memoir about the trials and tribulations of a mixed-race boy, now man, who grew up on a Indian reservation, traversing through the struggles of family dysfunction and the desire to leave his roots behind but later in life trying to reclaim what it means to be a Jicarilla Apache member and soon find out what it means to be made to feel like you are not. Follow along as Leon shares his journey, a snapshot of youth and an in-depth attempt to return and serve as a local political representative, tribal council member, facing adversity, as he tries to promote out-of-the-box ideas, a promotion of the laws, and news ways to enhance economic development, all for the benefit of his fellow tribal members now and well into the future, quickly realizing that the hardships his community and tribe face are derived by those who were elected to protect and serve. Leon finds himself at a personal and professional crossroads, now divorced, raising three children and trying to prove that he is not a thief as labeled by his tribal council colleagues. Leon would find a way. "It's been a labor of love" to juggle both tribal council and father duties, but as you will read, Leon rises above the hardships, fighting every inch of the way! As tribal councilman, Leon establishes himself as a local politician and helps generate hundreds of millions of dollars for the tribe, including crafting, presenting, and getting approval for the first ever Jicarilla Apache Nation tribally owned holding company, unfortunately singlehandedly dismantled by spite, jealousy, and ignorance, and all from a corpus that is supposed to create but only typically destroys the beauty of tribal sovereignty.
