"The truth may set you free, but first it will shatter the safe, sweet way you live." - Sue Monk Kidd ; The Dance of the Dissident Daughter
"So God created human beings in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."
- Moses ; Genesis 1.27"The English expected the Natives to give up their egalitarian gender roles. Women were no longer to cultivate the “sacred sisters” in the fields—beans, corn, and squash. Men were to stop hunting and grow flax for the women to weave into clothes that could be sold to the English." - Rita Nakashima Brock & Rev.
