November is Native American Heritage Month. We recognize and honor indigenous cultures and worldviews that focus on living in harmony with nature as a part of a shared ecosystem. In this post, we bring you a watercolor painting entitled "Butterfly Dance" by Fred Kabotie (c. 1900–1986) who was a celebrated Hopi painter, silversmith, illustrator, potter, author, curator and educator.

The Hopi Butterfly Dance takes place in late summer to early fall in northern Arizona’s Hopi villages. It is a two-day ceremony for the harvest, calling for rain, good health, and long life for all living things. The dance is performed by young and unmarried girls, a ritual to learn what it means to be a young Hopi woman and her purpose within Hopi culture. On the day of the ceremony, the dancer wears a kopatsoki (headdress) and ceremonial clothing with her feet painted yellow, symbolizing the eagle’s yellow feet, so that she can dance lightly throughout the day. (You can learn more about Butterfly Dance in the essay written by Gloria Lomahaftewa on the National Museum of the American Indian’s website.)

Butterfly dance Kabotie, Fred, Native American painter, 1900-1986 [artist] Watercolor on paper 14 x 21 3/4" Native American, Hopi ca.1928 Repository: School for Advanced Research, Santa Fe, Santa Fe, New Mexico, United States HOLLIS number: 8001696092

THE WHITE DECK ADOPTS

If and when you join the server, you’ll have the chance to adopt any of these cats right off the bat! All of them are for easing people into the server, not having to design or think of a whole new cat right off the bat to fit into the lore or anything. If you want MORE details, go ahead and ask!

Ivyshroud, Mistwatcher, and Butterflydance are waiting for you, because I certainly can’t play them myself!

On September 21 in Palo Alto, we gave a going away “Goodbye Good Riddance” Party for Palantir, the defense contractor that does data-mining for ICE. They are moving to Denver where our colleagues in the movement will lead the charge. We danced with @danceofpeace, served cupcakes (note the Rocky Mountain High theme) with Palo Alto Against ICE, and had speakers from Mijente, American Friend Service Committee, and more. These photos are by Bob Ulius. Thank you, Bob!
