For the Navajo people, introducing yourself is about more than just telling someone your name, it's about sharing where you come from.Where you "come from" isn't just the location of where you live, but more what defines you. For the Navajo people that comes from their clans.The Navajo people's way of life revolves around kinship or K'é, which arises from familial and clan relationships. (x)
When it comes to clans in Navajo, there are a few things to keep in mind. For one, Navajo clans are exogamous, meaning members of the same clan cannot marry one another. Additionally, each clan is associated with a particular animal, plant, or geographic feature, which is considered to be that clan’s ” protector.” (x)

Découverte à partager !!
Hier je suis tombée sur un message de Lokiddles (discord) sur le bottin de RPG, parlant de son site qui regroupe une panoplie d’avatars fait par les membres de la commu. Une idée plaisante qui prend jour. Beaucoup ne savent pas où aller chercher des avatars et même si tumblr c’est génial pour ça, je me permet de présenter le site (encore en évolution) https://www.avacrea.org/ Si vous voulez rebloguer, puisque plus il y aura de créateurices, plus la variété des fc sera intéressante 🥰

I am SO happy to see the character of Katara being played and represented by indigenous women.
They are so beautiful, and I can’t wait to see their takes on this iconic character!

I know Dark Winds has gotten a lot of mixed reviews, but I really enjoy the series. Zahn McClarnon is a phenomenal actor, but Kiowa Gordon, Jessica Matten, and Deanna Allison really round out the cast.
I also enjoyed A Martinez guest starring in Season 2, as I enjoyed his portrayal of Jacob Nighthorse in Longmire.
If you haven't given Dark Winds a watch yet, you should. It's coming back for a third season, which I'm stoked about.
