This is gorgeous but too short. Just another one of those stories where you can't help but wonder, "What the f**k is wrong with white people?"

I am grateful for the courage of Elder Betty to tell her story. Her afterword reminds of the saying, "We are only as sick as our secrets." It may be that indigenous cultures are oral cultures because we know that their is truth and healing in the telling, and it is no small thing to actually listen.

White people, please feel bad and guilty about this stuff *quietly*.
