Man and Woman on Southeastern Idaho Reservation

Idaho Indian Peoples are divided into five distinct groups: the Kutenai (some times called Kootenai), Coeur d'Alene, and Nez Perce in the North, the Shoshoni and Northern Paiute in the south. The Kutenai-some sixty individuals living in Idaho near Bonners Ferry--are the smallest of the northern groups.

Light On The Water's tikéˀs, illustration from Kaya's Hero

tikéˀs (cradleboard), circa 1846, Wetxuuwíitin’ Collection via Plateau Peoples' Web Portal

What's really cool about this tikéˀs is that when it was returned to the Nez Perce people in 1996, there was already a dress in the collection with a matching design. It is theorized that both the dress and tikéˀs were made by the same woman, as a matching mother and baby set.

Devin's Dude Ranch: Episode Two (Part One)

Venessa: "Welcome all to Echo Valley Ranch. As you know, this will be your home for the duration of the challenge, or if Devin doesn't feel the connection, until you're eliminated. This is Devin's home, so we ask that you be respectful."

Venessa (continues): "The challenge will take place over 6 weeks and will include challenges that award solo dates with Devin. There will also be group dates and some short one-on-one time each week during cocktail parties prior to eliminations, so use your time wisely to try to get to know our Bachelorette and make that connection. Lastly, input from our audience can influence the outcome of the challenge through weekly polls, so it's important to make a good impression on them as well."

Venessa (continues): "But for tonight, you'll each get some special one-on-one time with Devin so you can get to know each other a little better. You've already made your first impressions. Now it's time to go a little deeper. You don't have a lot of time here, so make every moment together count. Devin?"

Devin: "I just want to thank each of you for being here. I know this is an unusual situation we've all put ourselves in, in the name of love, but I'm grateful to all of you for giving this, and me, a chance."

Devin (continues): "So, tonight, and really throughout this experience, just be yourselves. Don't hold back. Let's really get to know each other and see if we have that special connection we're all here looking for."

Devin (continues): "I'm excited to get to know all of you. Let's make this a fun, unforgettable experience, alright?"

*the guys cheer in response*

*as Venessa leaves Stan is the first on his feet and approaches Devin*

Stan: "You know, Ms. Delaney, we're the ones who should be grateful that you're giving us all a shot."

Devin: "Please, just call me Devin, Stan."

Stan: "Yes, ma'am...Devin," *grins to himself following his slip-up* "I was hoping to have a moment of your time. Maybe you could introduce me to your horse if it's not too much trouble?"

*A wide smile breaks out across Devin's face*

Devin: "I would love to. Follow me, she's right outside in the pasture."

*the camera cuts to Devin and Stan outside. Devin is affectionately cradling her horse's muzzle while Stan looks on, grinning.*

Devin: "This is Gale. And I don't want you to be jealous, but she's my original soulmate."

Stan: "Ah, that's alright. I wouldn't dream of coming between a woman and her horse. It's a sacred bond."

*At that, Gale plods toward James, lowers her head and nudges his shoulder*

Stan: "Well, howdy there, girl," *he begins scratching her neck, which Gale accepts readily*, "Oh, you like that, do ya?"

*Devin takes a step back and watches the two bond, clearly pleased by how quickly the two are taking to each other*

Devin: "You're good with her. You've spent some time around horses, haven't you?"

Stan: "Yessum. I have a ranch, too. I share it with my own girl. Her name's Nutmeg."

*Devin can't help but smile hearing his horse's name*

Devin: "Nutmeg? That is really cute."

*Stan chuckles*

Stan: "She is cute if I do say so myself. And a damn fine horse. Wanna see a picture of her?"

Devin: "Yeah! Of course I do!"

*Stan pulls his phone from his pocket, queues up a photo of Nutmeg, and shows it to Devin*

Devin: "Wow, she is impressive. She's a Nez Perce, right?"

Stan (impressed): "Good eye. She is."

Devin: "Do you compete or use her for ranch work?"

Stan: "Ah, just pleasure ridin' and ranch work, really. She does good helping me keep the goats in line...as much as anyone can."

*Devin looks up and smiles at Stan*

Devin: "Oh, you have goats?"

Stan: "Yeah. Dairy goats. Mischievous little things. But, I love 'em."

Devin: "My grandmother had goats when I was growing up. There was never a dull moment with them around. I don't know how many screen doors she had to replace over the years...anytime she was late feeding them, they'd start headbutting the heck out of that door because they knew it'd motivate her to do the right thing, as they saw it, anyway."

*Devin shakes her head and smiles in recollection*

*Stan chuckles*

*There is a moment of silence between them*

Stan: "Alright. You said you don't like boring and our time together here is, unfortunately, limited. So, let's cut to the chase. Tell me something weird about yourself."

*Devin looks bewildered for a moment before regaining her composure*

Devin: "Umm...okay," *pauses for a moment to think* "I saw a Bigfoot when I was fourteen."

*Stan looks stunned and staggers backwards for dramatic effect*

Stan: "What?! Alright, you can't just drop a bomb like that on someone and not tell them the full story!"

*Devin laughs and hides her face behind her hand*

Devin: "I can't believe I'm about to admit this on national TV."

*Stan moves closer to her and then waves the camera away*

Stan: "No, no. Just pretend like they're not there. I need to hear this. I've always been fascinated with the Sasquatch."

Devin: "Seriously?"

*Stan nods*

Stan: "Seriously."

*Devin draws in a deep breath and looks into his pleading eyes*

Devin: "Fine. Like I said. I was fourteen. My Dad, uncle, and I were riding through the mountains on horseback because we were going camping and it's the best way to get around up there. They were ahead me, by maybe a quarter of a mile. And then I saw it, as I was crossing a low river. It was just sitting on a rock, squatting next to the water, maybe 50 feet away from me. It looked like it was breaking apart clams or something. I stopped my horse in our tracks and just stared. And when it noticed me, it stood up, we made eye contact, and then it turned and walked off, disappearing behind some rocks. I'd never been so scared in my life. It was freaking HUGE. And it wasn't a person in a suit. And it wasn't a bear or a monkey or any of the common write-offs you hear about. It was Yeti Di Kluii."

Stan: "Yeti Di Kluii?"

Devin: "It's what my people call Bigfoot."

*Stan nods*

Stan: "Well, that, is an incredible story. I wish I'd seen it."

Devin: "It was life changing, but I don't tell people because most of them wouldn't believe me," *she pauses and smiles at Stan* "Alright, it's your turn."

Stan: "Well, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed after your weird fact, but...," *now he pauses to think* "I have a paralyzing fear of cowplants."

*Devin's mouth open, closes slightly, and she smiles*

Devin: "Oh, no! That's....so endearing. But also, understandable. I mean, they're aliens....that will eat you!"

Stan: "Exactly! They're not cute cuddly friends..."

Devin: "...Unlike goats."

Stan: "Well. I don't know you can exactly contrast the two."

*Both laugh in unison*

*as the laughter dies down, Devin sighs and glances back toward the house*

Devin: "Well, I suppose I should make my way back in there. Give these other fellows a chance to chat me up."

Stan: "I mean, you don't have to, do you?"

Devin: "It's probably in my contract in something."

Stan: "Well, if that's the case, I guess I'll let you get back to it. As always, it was a pleasure, Devin."

*he then leans forward and plants a kiss on her cheek*

Devin: "Until next time, cowboy."

*Devin turns and makes her way back into the house*

Stan (to Gale): "There she goes, girl. The woman of my dreams."

Stan (in diary room): *takes off his hat, runs his fingers through his hair, then shimmies it back onto his head* "I don't know what to say. Devin is a special girl. I've enjoyed every minute I've gotten to spend with her so far. I've never met a woman this easy to talk to. And I definitely feel a connection. Boy howdy, I hope she feels it too."

Devin (in diary room): "I like Stan. He's got this down-to-earth quality mixed with eccentricity that I find fascinating. And I do feel like we have a good connection; it feels easy. I'm just not sure yet if it's romantic or more on a friendship level. It worries me that we don't have a lot of time to figure it out. I guess we'll have to see what happens next, won't we?"

Are there any Lakota feminists you admire?

It's a little hard to compile a list of Lakota feminists specifically. While there are some, there aren't enough, and I'd like to broaden my answer to cover more than just Lakota women fighting for feminism for Indigenous women all over the world. I hope that's okay.

These are women I encourage anyone to look up and check out their work, we all come from different backgrounds so I might not agree with/have experienced everything shared by them but I think every Indigenous woman's voice is important!

Jihan Gearon - Navajo, feminist and artist

Tarcila Rivera Zea - Quechuan, feminist activist, founder of multiple organizations for Indigenous women

Debora Barros Fince - Waayu, activist and human rights defender and lawyer in Colombia

Rauna Kuokkanen - Sami, professor and Indigenous feminist activist

Aileen Moreton-Robinson - Goenpul, Indigenous feminist and author, Australia's first Indigenous Distinguished Professor

Sarah Eagle Heart - Lakota, author and co-founder of Return to the Heart Foundation

Madonna Thunder Hawk - Lakota, civil rights activist and co-founder of Women of All Red Nations

Mandeí Juma - Chief of the Juma

Ávelin Kambiwá - Kambiwá, specialist in public policies on gender/race, feminist in Brazil

Jodi Voice Yellowfish - Creek, Lakota, and Cherokee, founder and chair of the MMIW Texas Rematriate organization

Wilma Mankiller - Cherokee, first female principal chief of her nation

Annie Mae Aquash - Mi'kmaq, member of AIM, deserves justice for her murder

Jolie Varela - Paiute, led a hike with indigenous women across their cultural land as an expression of sovereignty, founder of Indigenous Women Hike

Lee Maracle - Stó꞉lō, feminist author

Tillie Black Bear - Lakota, activist for domestic violence towards Indigenous women

Other Indigenous women I look up to/admire, not necessarily feminist specific:

The Bearhead Sisters - Sister trio singing group, Wilhnemme

Acosia Red Elk - Umatilla, jingle dancer

Deb Haaland - Laguna Pueblo, Interior Secretary for the USA

Amelia Marchand - Colville, warrior against climate change

Lydia Jennings - Pascua Yaqui and Huichol, warrior against climate change

Roberta Tuurraq Glenn-Borade - Iñupiaq, warrior against climate change

Robin Wall Kimmerer - Potwatomi, fantastic author, please read her book Braiding Sweetgrass if you haven't already

Fawn Wood - Cree and Salish musician

Moving Robe Woman - Lakota warrior, fought against Custer in the Battle of Little Big Horn to avenge her murdered brother

Buffalo Calf Road Woman - Cheyenne warrior who was the one to knock General Custer off his horse during the Battle of Little Big Horn

Bernie LaSarte - Coeur d'Alene, program manager for the STOP Violence Program

Mary Jane Miles - Nez Perce, tribal vice chairman

Crystalyne Curley - Navajo, first woman to become Speaker of the Navajo Nation Council

Article about multiple Indigenous women in Mexico who run Indigenous women's centers

Lily Gladstone - Blackfeet and Nez Perce actress

Rebecca Thomas - Mi'kmaw poet and activist

Sacheen Littlefeather - Apache and Yaquim actress. Keeler is a horrible person and not worthy of listening to whatsoever, Sacheen Littlefeather did more activism for Indian Country than Keeler will ever accomplish in her miserable life

Brianna Theobald - Not Indigenous to my knowledge (I could definitely be wrong), but researched and wrote a wonderful book about the treatment of Indigenous women in regards to reproduction and sterilization

The brave woman at Standing Rock photographed by Ryan Vizzions. She has since passed away due to a car accident I believe, but I'm struggling to find her name. Once I find it, I'll update this post.

Honor the Grandmothers is a good book to hear Lakota and Dakota women elders share their experiences.

Native Actor Lily Gladstone Makes History

Today, I share with you some great news! On January 7, in case you missed it, Blackfeet and Nez Perce actor Lily Gladstone made history as the Golden Globes' first Indigenous winner in the category of Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama. Gladstone, who goes by both she/they pronouns, brought an understated power to their portrayal of Mollie Burkhardt, an Osage woman struggling amid the murders of her family and community by greedy settlers, in Martin Scorcese's "Killers of the Flower Moon."

After beginning their acceptance speech with a traditional Blackfeet introduction and a round of thank-yous, Gladstone said something important and inspiring: "This is a historic win, but it doesn't belong to just me. I'm holding it with all of my beautiful sisters. And this is for every rez kid, every little urban kid, every little Native kid out there who has a dream, who is seeing themselves represented and our stories, told by ourselves in our own words, with tremendous allies and tremendous trust from with and from each other."

That last statement is filled with both truth and nuance. It's a beautiful sentiment, but Gladstone may also be acknowledging that Hollywood remains a place with rich and powerful gatekeepers. Even in 2024, non-Native filmmakers (allies or not) like James Cameron (the "Avatar" franchise) and Scorcese are most often still the ones helming stories featuring Indigenous People and perspectives.`

This needs to change. Allies are important, and representation is wonderful. Still, even the most positive representation on-screen is not the same thing as agency -- the ability to tell their own stories, centering their own narratives. And agency, particularly for the Native women without whom this story does not exist and the movie could not function, is largely missing for much of "Killers of the Flower Moon." When Native actors occupy the screen, the movie seems to vibrate at a different frequency. I'm left wondering what could have been had their characters' arcs been less peripheral.

Much has been written about the movie by Indigenous People across the nation. From a glowing review by Vincent Schilling, founder and editor of NativeViewpoint.com, to a scathing indictment from "Reservation Dogs" star Devery Jacobs, opinions on the movie vary widely -- and understandably so. The three-hour-plus epic, based on true events, is ambitious, messy, and devastating. Critics praise the movie's effort to highlight Osage history with Indigenous actors in prominent roles but express reservations about its graphic violence and lack of historical context, foregrounding of white characters and lack of an Indigenous screenwriter or director. One thing everyone seems to agree upon, though, is the powerful performances given by Gladstone and other Native People in supporting roles. I, for one, look forward to seeing more from all of them, especially in movies and shows written and directed by Indigenous storytellers.

Walla Walla – People of Many Waters

A Sahaptin tribe who lived for centuries on the Columbia River Plateau in northeastern Oregon and southeastern Washington, their name is translated several ways but, most often, as “many waters.” While the people have their own distinct dialect, their language is closely related to the Nez Perce. The tribe included many groups and bands that were often referred to by their village names, such as Wallulapum and Chomnapum ... A hunter-gatherer tribe, they lived in “tents” that were easy to move. However, their lodging differed from many other nomadic tribes, in that it was bigger and covered with tule mats rather than hides. Called a longhouse, it was made out of lodge poles much like a tepee, but was much longer, sometimes as much as 80 feet in length. Resembling a modern-day “A” frame house in appearance, the lodge poles were covered with mats made of tule, a plant that grows freely in the area along waterways. When the tribe moved, the mats were gathered and moved and the lodge poles left behind ... Beginning in the early 1700s the Walla Walla people raised great herds of horses, making their lifestyle much easier as they gathered seasonal plants. They also traveled across the Rocky Mountains to trade dried roots and salmon to the Plains Indians for buffalo meat and hides ... The people were first encountered by white travelers during the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1805. The explorers were warmly welcomed by Chief Yellepit, whose village of about 15 lodges, was situated on the Columbia River near the mouth of the Walla Walla River. The communication between the two groups was made between a Shoshone woman who had been captured by the Walla Walla and the expedition’s guide and interpreter, Sacagawea, who was also of the Shoshone tribe. Though Yelleppit extended an offer to the expedition to stay with the village, Lewis and Clark were in a hurry to reach the Pacific Ocean. However, they promised to spend a few days on their return. In April 1806, as the explorers began to make their way back east, the expedition spent several days with the Walla Walla, during which time, gifts were exchanged and goods traded. Two of the items left by the expedition with the tribe was a peace medal engraved with a portrait of Thomas Jefferson and a small American flag. In their documentation, Lewis and Clark estimated the tribe’s numbers as 1,600; however, this probably included other bands now recognized as independent ... The next non-native to encounter the Walla Walla people was a trader by the name of David Thompson of the Canadian-British North West Company, who arrived in 1811. About five miles upriver from Chief Yellepit’s village, he staked a pole with a note claiming the territory for the British Crown and declaring that the North West Company intended to build a trading post at the site. Continuing downriver, Thompson stopped at Yellepit’s village, where he discovered the American “claims” in the form of Yellepit’s flag and medal. Though neither Lewis and Clark or Thompson had much power to actually lay claim to the region, Yellepit was very supportive of the idea of Canadians setting up a trading post nearby ...

March is Women's History Month, and since the Historical line is my favorite part of American girl, I thought I'd like to spend this month trying to find an American woman to relate to each of the historicals. I generally want to find someone in that same time period, but I may find contemporary women as well if they fit better. [I may do the same for the GOTY, we'll see].

First up is Kaya'aton'my! (Kaya)

Everyone in my house is dressed in red, pink, or purple right now for an event Claudie is holding at Angelo's later this week.

Finding a historical woman for 1764 has been.... somewhat difficult. We don't have records for a lot of Native American women during this time period (or Native Americans on the west side of the continent in general) , and generally I found lots of info about Mary Campbell, who was returned from the Lenape in 1764. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Campbell_(colonial_settler) But I really wanted to focus on someone who was Native American. So I turned to modern women.

And, coincidentally, I found one of the actors in The Last of Us is a Niimiipuu/Nez Perce woman. [Note that I do not watch this show, but I have seen that the last episode is making rounds for the AG crossover :) ].

Elaine Miles is Cayuse and Nez Perce, (her mother is Cayuse and her father is Nez Perce) and she's most famously known for playing Marilyn Whirlwind in Northern Exposure. Marilyn may be the first Native American series regular [as quoted in this The Nerds of Color article https://thenerdsofcolor.org/2020/07/10/elaine-miles-reflects-back-on-auditioning-filming-and-native-representation-for-northern-exposure/amp/] Elaine has also worked with local Native American communities in various outreach events. There's not a ton on her Wikipedia page, but there's numerous interviews with her scattered on the internet.

Elaine's birthday is April 7th, and Kaya's set sometime in the spring. I think April 7th will now be my Kaya's birthday, since there's no justification for any other dates.
