To our #rainbow community members,
#TwoSpirit healing leaders have existed in #Canada and the #USA for thousands of years. #Māhū spiritual healing leaders have existed in #Hawai'i and #Tahiti for thousands of years.

Do not lend your ears to those newly arrived that fear out of #ignorance. They do not understand how this universe balances and are linked. Look at how they treat our mother earth, and animals... you should know if they are worth paying attention to or not.

You #belong here.

GOP are sick fucks

GOP lawmakers pass bill allowing child genital exams without parental consent

Republicans at the West Virginia Legislature passed a bill that would allow health care providers to “visually or physically examine a minor child” for the purpose of identifying their “biological sex” without the “consent of the child’s parent, guardian, or custodian.”

@Tzipporah has one of these blankets but you don't have to be #TwoSpirit or #LGBTQ to have this blanket.

Vibrant blanket design is based on a painting by Two Spirit artist Ryan Young (Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa) that calls out to their community's traditional story about crows.

While this blanket celebrates Two Spirit people, Ryan envisions it as a blanket that anyone can wrap themselves in to feel safe, warm, and at home.

#Arizona #TwoSpirit #Powwow empowers community amid growing #AntiTrans legislation

"The Arizona Two Spirit Powwow returned to #PhoenixArizona on Saturday, February 22, to spotlight Indigenous #LGBTQ+ and two-spirit people for a day of cultural celebration and community.

"Hosted at South Mountain Community College, the event welcomed dancers, drum groups and attendees from across the region. More than just a traditional gathering, the powwow allowed two-spirit individuals to celebrate their identities and honor their place in Indigenous culture.

“'This (powwow) is a perfect example of a #SafeSpace for people to come and dance in whatever category they want to dance in, dress the way that they feel good about themselves, love who they want to love, and they are safe here. This tells the community we are here, we are here for you,' Sheila Lopez said.

"Lopez is the founder of Arizona’s first Two Spirit Powwow and the first Native chapter of #PFLAG, which bills itself as the country’s largest advocacy organization that supports LGBTQ+ individuals and their families.

"President Donald Trump’s recent executive actions have left #transgender and two-spirit communities uncertain about their rights and recognition going forward.

"'It is super important right now with the administration, what they’re doing to pretty much wipe away trans people. It’s super critical right now for us to continue to show up in the community, to say we’re here, we’re not going anywhere and you can’t erase us, period,' Lopez said."
