Description
"One Bead at a Time is the oral memoir of Beverly Little Thunder, a two-spirit Lakota Elder from Standing Rock, who has lived most of her life in service to Indigenous and non-Indigenous women in vast areas of both the United States and Canada. Transcribed and edited by two-spirit Métis writer Sharron Proulx-Turner, Little Thunder{u2019}s narrative is told verbatim, her melodious voice and keen sense of humour almost audible overtop of the text on the page. Early in her story, Little Thunder recounts a dream from her early adulthood, ?I stared at these lily pads for the longest time and I decided that there was one part of the pond that had lots of lily pads and no frogs. I said, {u2018}I want to go there because there{u2019}s lots of lily pads but no frogs and I like creating community.{u2019}? And create community she does. Little Thunder established the first and today, the only all-women{u2019}s Sundance in the world, securing a land base in the Green Mountains of Vermont for future generations of Indigenous women{u2019}s ceremony. She was active in the A.I.M. movement and she continues to practice and promote political and spiritual awareness for Indigenous women around the world. A truly remarkable visionary."--Publisher's website.
