PRIDE MONTH Redding Rancheria
The term two-spirit is fluid, much like the identity itself. A two-spirit person is an indigenous person who can identify as a man who can access feminine energy, a woman who can access masculine energy or someone that exists in between a man and woman. Before colonization, two spirit-people were highly regarded in their indigenous communities. They were seen as powerful people who were given special roles such as naming children and making battle decisions; they were healers, social workers, adoptive parents, marriage counselors, and psychics. Today, a two-spirit person might include themselves in the LGBTQ+ community because of their gender fluidity. As indigenous people, we choose to celebrate them and know that the creator made everyone as they are for a reason, and they are all valued members of our community.
