Description

During Pride month, many folks around the state are reminded, or learning for the first time, that gender and sexuality is a spectrum that goes beyond the traditional LGBTQ+ umbrella. One identity that often gets misrepresented — or even left out entirely — is Two Spirit, an identity unique to Indigenous people. Yanktonai Dakota poet and New Native Theatre senior artistic producer Charli Fool Bear shared what her Two Spirit identity means to her in a conversation with MPR News host Cathy Wurzer.
