4. Garlic salt: a pinch

9. Cheese: as desired
10. Wheat or corn tortillas
Procedure:
1. Use, mash, and 'fry' leftover beans with about an ounce of Olive Oil.

4. Add Jalapeño 'juice' to taste.
Making the 'Tacos':
1. Using corn or wheat tortilla, add the desired amount of black beans, and place them along one half of the tortilla.
2. Add the desired amount of favorite cheese.

Forbidden Words By Odilia Galván Rodríguez
Forbidden Words
for those who will not be silenced
The evidence of your ignorance screams so loudly every time you twit- ter another snort about you or your thoughts about anything... you call foul play you the King of foul who rules the oligarchy by bad behavior lies and slurs you try to silence truths by calling everything fake news you the King of fake you can't stand words like diversity because you despise it you wouldn't know vulnerable because you are a bully who’s always banked on entitlement you abhor anyone 'other' not just the transgendered you the King of xenophobia saying you want to make America great again code for going backward in time to slavery to poverty to us with our heads bowed down forward in time to more wanton destruction of earth its people you the King of destruction of greed we need no science-based studies to tell us the world is dying we live out on the earth we’ve kneeled in its fields as farm workers as soldiers as warriors giving birth we do not live in towers in castles in White Houses and the future of fetuses everywhere even your future generations depend on us to RESIST!

Hibernation
hush
guides are ready cedar kin heirs to oak and hazel trespassers transgressors progenitors swimmers in the midnight frozen river
leak beyond the edges glass worn thin like tree bark water writes days of quickening and sorrow in turquoise ink on a bloodshot sky
dawn a latecomer gloaming walks an early road northern winter says follow chitchat crows in the narrow light
more hours spent in reverie than consciousness old women tie their shoes with deer sinew and catgut in the early dark fall from grace into knowing

WE Are The Sacred Hoop By Thana Redhawk
WE Are The Sacred Hoop
Each one of us has a sacred purpose we came here to do. WE are the seeds planted by the Ancestors prayers and dreams... while singing the songs of Creation.
No matter what that looks like we are here to return to the ways of being in alignment and harmony with Creation and all sentient life in Creation.
WE are here to empower ourselves and our people (all nations, all colors of the sacred hoop)
We can no longer stand in silence and watch the predator energy consume all that is good in Creation
Each sacred purpose is just as important as another's sacred purpose, no one is above or below any one else. Everyone's opinion matters... EVERYONE!
WE must get beyond skin color, race, class and gender to truly evolve into what the old one's dreamed of... The generations that would restore true power, by rEmembering, true power is in Creation and all that resides in Creation has power and spirit...
WE must lite the fires, do the ceremonies, carry the bundles, the teachings and stop separating ourselves from the truth. That we were born as a gift of creation and it is our responsibility to honor this gift of life... for all beings as our brothers and sisters
We have remained strong, we are still here, our spirits will never break, we are the beauty in the chaos, we carry the medicine bundle of creation in our hearts and spirits...
WE are the Sacred hoop, complete and ready for what is ahead. WE are powerful and we are supported by our Ancestors. For we are thousands of struggles, thousands of prayers, and thousands of dreams.
