Book #16 of 2025: “Spider Woman‘s Granddaughters”, edited by Paula Gunn Allen

I loved this book. Even the preface—especially the preface. I picked it up at a record store, of all places. A beautifully put together collection of stories by and about Indigenous women across North America. Do recommend.

ARE YOU DISTRACTED ENOUGH YET?

Today‘s #ranttime is about how this man has to have his fingers in every. Single. Pie. Just because he thinks he can. And to distract us.

I don‘t care what the Washington football team is called. If he wants to change the name again, how about the Epsteins? Or the Orangeskins?

This regime doesn‘t exactly have a great record when it comes to Native Americans or respecting the city of Washington either. News links⬇️

ncsufoxes I said to my husband (& I posted about the MLL files release) in a few weeks we may know all of our nations secrets. He‘s going to do everything he can to distract maga & use racism to draw them back on his side. 3mo
KadaGul Mango 🥭 Syndicate has a severe allergy to any goodness. It is as if they are trying their best to put us back in 1600 BC. In the future, when historians look 👀 back @ our times, are WE LOOKING 👀 HISTORY 📜 OR WATCHING SOME teenagers‘ YouTube channel?#MangoSyndicate #MangoMafia 3mo
Bette The old: “look over there” ploy…like people are dumb. 🤔🙄 3mo
Butterfinger This upsets me. It's just like him to do something racist, but I had to do research on the branding of indigenous people. The name originated from the king/government to pay for natives killed. The evidence was from the number of collected 'skins'. I am devastated that he is using this as an issue. I know the files are more important, though. 3mo
AnnCrystal Thank you @Butterfinger for researching and sharing that truth. They even had to use reduced powered rifles when hunting our young 😢.

First Coulter's comment that stated “we didn't kill enough Indians“ now Little t is threatening the NFL Commanders to return to the name Redskins...🤨🤬.

For those who don't know, words like, “redskin,“ “squaw,“ & “red apple“ are similar to Native Americans as the N word or Oreo cookie for African Americans.

AnnCrystal P.S. It is true...he's throwing things into chaos and giving distractions to keep us busy. (edited) 3mo

We have no room on our bookshelves, but also no self-control. 😂 We spent this rainy day in two secondhand book stores and came away with these treasures. #bookhaul

5 ⭐️s
This is another one that leaves me feeling completely inadequate. I don't know where to even begin to express the scope of the story or the impact it has had on me. I urge anyone that enjoys historical fiction, multi-generational storytelling, and having your heart torn from your chest to read it immediately.

Five HUGE stars.

It wrecked me.

Read it.
