Carlotta Cardana The Red Road: Picturing Modern Native American Indigenous Identity    

*signal boost for indigenous solidarity #nodapl  see more details on how to help here

support an Indigenous photographer here, working hard to document the Great Sioux Nation’s protests in North Dakota. 

Photo #2: Ula and Tim Tyler. This Eastern Shoshone couple have been married for 54 years and experienced reservation life before there was electricity or running water.

Photo #4: Ishkoten Dougi. Ishkoten is an artist from the Isleta Pueblo Indian Reservation in New Mexico. He is portrayed in his studio, surrounded by his artwork that represents some of the atrocities inflicted on Native Americans.

Photo #5: Evereta and her Mustang. When Evereta Thinn, 30, entered college as the only Native American in her English 101 class, it was at that moment she realized that she needed to speak up and not be that stereotypical “shy” Indian who keeps to herself. She works as an administrator at the school district on the Navajo Nation and aspires to start a language and cultural immersion school for the Diné (Navajo) people.

Photo #8: Fast Eddie (left), a pow wow dancer, is pictured with social media celebrity, Two Braids.

Photo #10:   Jarrod after the rodeo. Jarrod Ferris, Eastern Shoshone and Arapaho from the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming, has been bull riding since age 6. He hopes to one day win the title as world champion so that he can buy his mom a new house.

*Photo #13: Crisosto Apache, from the Mescalero Apache tribe of New Mexico, is an activist for LGBT rights in the Native community. He explains that there is no word for “gay” in any Native American language, but is referred to as being “two spirited.”

Photo #14: Maka in his classroom. After traveling the world and teaching English in Japan, Maka Clifford, from Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, realized his calling was going back to the Reservation to teach his own people and inspire young kids to explore life off the reservation.

That first Polish-language encyclopedia was right about dragons. "It is hard to defeat a dragon, but you have to try." That is in fact a definition of "dragon" that cuts to the heart of the matter and covers all the essentials.

A dragon is something that A) is very hard to defeat and B) must be fought. That's it. That's all you really have to know when approaching the subject.

[aspiringwarriorlibrarian]

“Ah it has two legs and two wings so it’s not a dragon it’s a wyvern” Okay a) that only applies to the British isles, everywhere else that’s just a dragon and b) why are wyverns so underdesigned then? Medieval illustrators put a second head on them sometimes, they put goat legs and human heads other times, wyverns were bipedal and never walked on their wings, and their tails took up half their bodies. You want to make a wyvern then make a wyvern, don’t give me a diet dragon and tell me how smart you are for correctly classifying it.

I want a bipedal, overdesigned monstrosity that looks like it shouldn’t be able to walk on land. I want to see it propping itself on its tail and legs like a kangaroo. I want to see wyverns flopping around like seals and taking a running start on water and having feathered wings sometimes. Monks didn’t spend so long drawing weird bullshit for their bestiaries for you to ignore their hard work, damn it!

[irregularjohnnywiggins]

Also wanna point out: it’s specific not just to Britain, but specifically British heraldry. There’s tons of examples in British folklore of weird ass dragons (if someone tries to claim that the Lambton Worm doesn’t count as a dragon, it’s pistols at dawn), including ones with two legs and two wings.

Unless you’re a knight planning to join the lists and joust, if something looks draconic enough to you it counts as a dragon.

What I learned in evil adviser school.

When groveling you’re gonna reach out towards whoever you’re trying to appeal to, but NEVER make contact.

If you make contact they’ll instantly be furious you’ve dared to put your hands on them. The point of reaching out is to appear desperate, and pulling away shows that you consider yourself unworthy of even touching them. They’re the perfect ingredients to successful groveling.

Ever since i was a little girl I have wanted to fight in battle and receive a grave but concealable injury and continue fighting bravely til the end and get reunited with my comrades and then smile and cough up blood then die smiling

[dragon-in-a-fez]

adults are always talking about how “kids will do anything to get out of school” and okay, first of all that’s not true, but I think we really need to ask why that idea holds so much sway.

children’s brains are hard-wired to take in new information and acquire new skills. consider, for a moment, just how thoroughly our society had to fuck up the concept of education for it to be a normal thing to assume kids are universally desperate to avoid learning.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

couple things here:

multiple things can actually be bad at the same time

I’m 32

[bramblepatch]

couple more things:

Little kids really aren’t equipped to work full time without damaging their physical, mental, and emotional development and health, and when you play the “but adults work all day!” card you sound like a nineteenth century textile baron.

Highschoolers can easily be “working” 40+ hours a week, between school, homework, and extracurriculars and/or part-time work, and still hear this smug “:/ wait til you get to the real world sweaty” rhetoric all the time.

The original claim here wasn’t even “school is too hard,” it was “school is failing to perform its most basic function,” which is different.

[wheeloffortune-design]

from an adult point of view:

- When my work day is done, it’s done. I don’t need to spend hours each night to study or do homework. 

- I don’t have tests and exams.

- I MAKE MONEY. 

[zelda-guru-momi]

Sometimes I’ll be at home and start freaking out that I haven’t done any homework yet before I realize “Wait I’m 30.”

Or I’ll be asleep dreaming that I’m at school but suddenly realize at the end of the semester that I’ve missed all my classes and don’t know what’s going on

School/homework has to be a stressful thing if it gives people anxiety and nightmares over a decade after graduation.

[edenfenixblogs]

On a serious note: I agree with all of this.

On another note “you sound like a 19th century textile baron” is my new fave insult.

One thing I appreciate about my cat son is that if he, who knows how it feels to be trapped in a room, so much as begins to suspect that I, his father, am trapped in a room, then he will immediately do everything in his meager power to rescue me

romance is lame and overrated i love mentor/mentee relationships in fiction and especially when theyre sort of fucked up

[t4timekeeper]

greatest hits:

- You started out as a bet/challenge to see if I could successfully wrangle the infamous Problem Child but oh whoops I got attached!

- You are my kind, bright-eyed protegé who would never do so much as rip a tag off a mattress. anyway I am going to acquaint you with Criminal Activity

- I showed you genuine kindness and it was maybe the first time you’d ever experienced it and accidentally ended up becoming more of a parent to you than your “real” blood family ever was. Uh. Do you want to play catch in the park or

- I will gladly take any punishment meant for you. I would go to the ends of the earth to protect you, even if it meant I had to die in the process. I would do it a thousand times over, and I wouldn’t regret any of it.

- I taught you how to fight, and now through some circumstance or another, I’m forced to engage you in life-or-death combat without holding back.

- I put you through training from hell to make you the person you are today, for “your own good”, and now you’ve realized that you can hit back. And you can hit hard.

- I have made you into something greater than yourself - but you are changing from how I have designed you, and this is something I cannot allow.

- I taught you everything you know, and it was the greatest mistake I’ve ever made.

- I will make you just like me - by force, if necessary.

[t4timekeeper]
