On horseback. Native American Black

6/21 Edited to

... Read moreRiding horseback has been a central part of many Native American cultures for centuries, symbolizing freedom, strength, and connection to nature. Black horses, in particular, hold special significance in various Native tribes, often representing power and mystery. From personal experience, I have found that horseback riding is not just a method of transportation but a profound cultural practice that fosters respect and harmony with the environment. The black horse’s striking appearance and calm demeanor make it a preferred companion in ceremonies and everyday life alike. Engaging with Native horseback traditions offers insightful perspectives on how these communities have preserved their identity through equestrian skills, storytelling, and spiritual rituals. These horses are often cared for with deep reverence, reflecting the broader values of stewardship and kinship that define Native American life. If you have the chance to visit cultural events or rodeos featuring Native American riders, watching their connection with their black horses can be truly inspiring. Such experiences underscore the resilience and enduring legacy of Native American horsemanship, highlighting how the bond between rider and horse is a vivid expression of cultural pride and history.

November is Native American heritage month in the U.S. so I thought I'd take a moment to highlight some books by Native authors that are on my TBR. I'm especially excited about the rom-com! i might make this my last romance read of the year. Which book sticks out to you? #lemon8partner

Being a Native American women
So grown up as a mixed child (black and Native American) I never realized how special that was. My great grandma even gave me my tribal name growing up which the name she gave me is “Fapili” which means a brook or a river. I’m Chickasaw which I’m very grateful for. I don’t know I feel super gratefu

History isn’t always black and white. Before the Civil War, slavery in America also involved some Native nations especially the Five Tribes after forced contact with European settlers. This is the complicated truth we don’t talk about enough. #fyp #fy #foryou #foryoupage
