Tlingit Tattoo

“That is a big difference I think in looking at the revival of any sort of cultural practice, is it takes a lot of courage to do it, and then maintain and uphold it. ”

Tlingit tattoo artist reclaims power, poke by poke, through healing ‘beauty marks’

When I set out to tell this story, I knew it would be important. As a young, fair complexioned Tlingit [KLING-khit] woman who struggles with claiming her own roots and cultural identity, I knew that I would be entering a sensitive arena touching close to home.

Thunderbirds Raised Her

”WE,” the debut music video from Thunderbirds Raised Her. “WE” is a powerful anthem inspired by the strength and commitment of the Indigenous Water Protectors who laid it all on the line at Standing Rock, in support of the positive, life-affirming Spirit of Resistance sweeping the globe. Thunderbirds Raised Her are three sisters from the Lummi Nation, Katherine Jefferson, Billie Lynn Kennedy J and Dani Kili Kennedy Jefferson. This is StyleHorse’s second collaboration with TRH–they also lent their exquisite voices to “We Shall Remain”. A special thanks to Lynnette Kennedy of the Cena-Kin Nakota Oyate (CTK) Saskatchewan, Canada, the girl’s mother and manager, for making this video possible! Special Thanks to Jihan Hafiz and Unicorn Riot!
