Das Bild zeigt ein Haus der Navajo
Bei ihnen war der erste Mensch intergeschlechtlich ⚥. So wurden inter- u. Transpersonen hoch angesehen.
In diesem Sinne werfe ich einen Blick auf Personen jenseits der Geschlechtergrenzen in verschiedenen Kulturen und Zeiten:

Bosque Redondo Memorial near Fort Sumner NM has a hallway of murals painted by Navajo artist (& IAIA alum) Shonto Begay. One side depicts Navajo (or Diné) being forced south, the other the U.S. Military forcing them south. Walk thru & guns become pointed at you & you can't help having strong feels.

At a time where it feels like we're losing, we need to remember our victories that not only have happened in the past, but continue to exist today.
Thus I give you, California Condor 926 of the SoCal flock.
Great grandchild of Condor # 1.
We as humanity can still do good things.

The Navajo Hogan Project officially became a non-profit yesterday. I started the Navajo Hogan Project to help combat the housing crisis on the reservations. We build traditional hogans for our unsheltered or displaced elders, veterans and families who live on the Navajo Reservation. For free.

Full Moons have nicknames that relate to the changing months and seasons. The Strawberry Moon 🍓 is June’s full Moon named after the fruit harvesting season. It might appear reddish since the full Moon will be low on the horizon! If you get clouded out, here are some of my latest Moon paintings 🫶

These are dark times, which makes it all the more vital to seek and share moments of joy, beauty, and peace. We must confront injustice and corruption, but also remember why we fight: hope for a better future — a dawn worth striving for, even if unseen by us.
