Two-Spirit 101
An introductory exploration into the rich histories, traditions, and contemporary experiences of Two-Spirit people. We’ll cover the basics of Indian Country and explore traditional Two-Spirit roles, as well as similar roles in cultures around the world. Participants will see historic images of Two-Spirit individuals and learn about the impacts of historical trauma, alongside the ongoing processes of renewal and resilience within Two-Spirit communities. We’ll also discuss the personal journeys of coming-in versus coming-out, and the importance of reconciliation and connection with other communities. This session offers a thoughtful, informative, and welcoming space for learning and dialogue.
