2nd National Tillie Black Bear Women Are Sacred Day October 1, 2019
In celebration today of our 2nd National Tillie Black Bear Women Are Sacred Day October 1, 2019, and kicking off October as national domestic violence awareness month, NIWRC and SHNH staff and Board share with you the following slideshow of pictures of us answering the question “What does it mean to you to be a good relative?” From Tillie sharing the teachings from White Buffalo Calf Woman that “even in thought, women are sacred,” and our relationships with each other govern how we treat each other, to many other tribal teachings, we know that the solution to ending domestic violence is rooted in tribal specific teachings. Please share throughout the month of October what it means to you to be a good relative rooted in your tribal specific teachings.
