#stitch with @Around The Way Girl @Daily Mail Other-Wordly Beings are real and you can believe it or not but when you see it for yourself there's no denying it. Sometimes they shape-shift and take human form, and sometimes they show their true form Iike they did to me #story #littlepeople #otherwordly #beings #aliens #indigenous #culture #nativeamerican #lakota #dakota #foryou #nativetiktok

Welcome to this world! A beautiful sign of prophecy during chaotic times, this white buffalo (bison) calf represents an ancient prophecy brought to the Lakota/Dakota/Nakota people 19 generations ago. Two paths are now available to each of us: that of destruction, or that of renewal, transmutation, and balance. We can change this world, by first changing ourselves.

This incredibly beautiful deerhide skirt and vest was handmade by Susan Benson. Featuring beaded Thunderbirds, this piece makes a powerful statement to Indigenous culture, especially my own, Dakota & Lakota, and that of the designer, Plains Cree.
Walking in two worlds, today's Indigenous fashion holds onto our traditional stories, culture, and roots through a modern expression. We are still here, ever evolving, and many of us are rising to show the world the beauty of our culture that has survived and transmuted the greatest of odds.
I am honored to now be the proud owner of this one-of-a-kind piece. Susan is a talented First Nations designer and artist based in Canada.
Pidamayaye, thank you for the honor, from one resilient winyan to another.

She is an experienced Traditional Handpoke Tattoo artist and educator that is featured in Skindigenous, a 13-part documentary series that features Indigenous Tattooing Traditions around the world, which has aired on APTN, PBS, and more.

Makade Makwa Ikwe, a Traditional Indigenous Tattoo artist based in Canada, is a featured panelist.
Learn about the deep meanings behind Traditional Tattoos, see examples of Traditional Tattooing and tools used, and find out if Traditional Tattooing is meant for you as a practitioner and/or a bearer.

#onthisday repost from 2022. The message is still loud and clear! Tag on ear or not - The White Buffalo represents the approaching fulfillment of the White Buffalo Calf Woman Prophecy given to the people of the Oceti Sakowin, the 7 Council Fires of the Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota bands of the Great Sioux Nation.
This sacred Spirit Woman came to our people 19 generations ago and brought us the canupa, the prayer pipe, along with the teachings of a powerful ceremonial way of life that has seen us thru many generations of prophesized suffering, during which we would lose almost everything.
However, she foretold that the end of this suffering and her return to walk amongst us would be indicated by the birth and appearance of the white buffalo. The tag on the ear of this white buffalo indicates the abundance of white buffalo that now walk the Earth! There are over 50 recorded white buffalo now, and more are being birthed each year!
The white buffalo indicates a choice that humanity must make between two paths - one of destruction (our current path), or one of reconciliation and balance. What choice do you make?

Repost from this day in 2021. In honor of the first day of Native American Heritage Month: Redbone, who behind the scenes was often blacklisted for celebrating their Indigeneity, but whose raw talent took them to the top of the charts anyways. "Native American" includes the Indigenous Peoples of Canada, North, and South America. Thanks to shows like Reservation Dogs for bringing these guy's true history to the forefront. #deadly #nativeamericanheritagemonth
