Words from Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers

Last summer I took a solo trip in my band’s School bus. On my way down the coast of California I stopped in Big Sur. By luck of a horseshoe I met and spoke with 8 of the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers… these are some of their words:

“My church is the earth and the sky. And I pray for all in between the sky and the earth. We are all part of the fabric.”   -Grandmother Agnes Baker Pilgrim, Confederated Tribes of Siletz  

“My hope is that that this new era beginning to open, be an era of understanding for fundamental questions of health.That this period be an era of love and friendship between humans and among all peoples.”   -Grandmother Bernadette Rebienot
