INDIGENOUS WOMEN OF TURTLE ISLAND
This site is dedicated to my Daughters Miranda and Rhiannon so they may learn more of the American Indian and all Indigenous women and grow from it.
~*~*~*~A very special Nyeahweh to my Mother and Grandmothers for all the love and wisdom of sharing. Without them I would not have been able to be who I am and pass on what has been ours for generations untold - my love and respect for them has no earthly bounds~*~*~*~

"When we Indians kill meat, we eat it all up.
When we dig roots, we make little holes.
When we build houses, we make little holes.
When we burn grass for grasshoppers, we don't ruin things.
We shake down acorns and pine nuts.
We don't chop down the trees.
We only use dead wood.
But the white people plow up the ground, pull down the trees, kill everything.
... the White people pay no attention.
...How can the spirit of the earth like the White man?
... everywhere the White man has touched it, it is sore."
Wintu Woman, 19th Century
