As previously reported in our June 2024 newsletter, due to the generosity of the members of BACGD and its allies, we were honored to be one of the sponsors for the Oneida
Two-Spirit Performance / Inclusion at the 2024 50th Annual Oneida PowWow. In addition, BACGD and its allies were also able to help fund transportation costs for Joe Torres of the Oneida Tribe and Sasha Rivera of the Ojibwe Nation, to travel to the August 2024 National Western Montana Two-Spirit Gathering. In attendance were Two-Spirit indigenous people from 25 nations from the US, Canada, and Mexico.
Joe and Sasha want to say thank you for your generous support for what they called a life changing, liberating experience. Some of the words they used to described it were “teary eyed beautiful” ... “overwhelmingly freeing” ... “a freaking beautiful experience” and more.
Working together with Joe and Sasha, BACGD hopes to plan some type of gathering for Two-Spirit people from throughout Wisconsin, perhaps in Spring 2025. If you know any Two-Spirit people who might be interested – drop a note to transgreenbay@gmail.com We would love to build connections.
