Size 11 Charlotte cut beads, size 8 seed beads, faceted Russian blue trade beads, vintage Padre beads, braided phone cords, brain tanned buckskin, and just a dash of authentic Native American NDN (aho) blood.

HOKA HEY CHILDREN!
Who would believe the heights we might climb? War whooping at legends, stomp dancing in crosswalks, laughing death back to life. We prayed for this before falling asleep on air mattresses in basements. Thanked our ancestors for the struggle, putting out spirit plates when food was scarce. Oh please let our children’s bellies fill with joy, and their minds be nourished with the love in our arts.
Okay den—
MITAKUYE OYASIN!!! Open the door, it’s fuckin hot in here!
