Cherokee Women and Their Important Roles:
Women in the Cherokee society were equal to men. They could earn the title of War Women and sit in councils as equals. This privilege led an Irishman named Adair who traded with the Cherokee from 1736-1743 to accuse the Cherokee of having a "petticoat government".
Clan kinship followed the mother's side of the family. The children grew up in the mother's house, and it was the duty of an uncle on the mother's side to teach the boys how to hunt, fish, and perform certain tribal duties. The women owned the houses and their furnishings. Marriages were carefully negotiated, but if a woman decided to divorce her spouse, she simply placed his belongings outside the house. Cherokee women also worked hard. They cared for the children, cooked, tended the house, tanned skins, wove baskets, and cultivated the fields. Men helped with some household chores like sewing, but they spent most of their time hunting.
Cherokee girls learned by example how to be warriors and healers. They learned to weave baskets, tell stories, trade, and dance. They became mothers and wives, and learned their heritage. The Cherokee learned to adapt, and the women were the core of the Cherokee.

In the 1880s, an extraordinary Apache woman named Lozen demonstrated remarkable abilities that left even seasoned warriors in awe. Through sacred rituals and prayers to Ussen (the Apache Creator), she could detect enemy locations with uncanny accuracy, stretching her arms outward to sense their presence.
Beyond her spiritual gifts, Lozen was a masterful strategist who fought alongside her brother Victorio and the legendary Geronimo. Her most daring feat came when she escorted a mother and newborn baby across treacherous desert terrain, stealing horses and supplies while under enemy fire to ensure their survival.
Though trained from childhood in Apache warrior traditions, Lozen's role transcended combat. She served as a seer and advisor, using her divine connection to guide her people during their resistance. Her dedication never wavered, even after capture by U.S. forces.
Lozen's remarkable journey ended in 1889 at Mount Vernon Barracks in Alabama, where she died as a prisoner of war. Her legacy lives on through Apache oral histories, reminding us of an era when faith, courage, and unwavering devotion helped a people survive against impossible odds.

"Simone Arianne Biles Owens OLY (née Biles; born March 14, 1997) is an American artistic gymnast. Her 11 Olympic medals and 30 World Championship medals make her the most decorated gymnast in history, and she is considered by many to be one of the greatest gymnasts and Olympians of all time. With 11 Olympic medals, she is tied with Věra Čáslavská as the second-most decorated female Olympic gymnast, and has the most Olympic medals earned by a U.S. gymnast.

At the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Biles won individual gold medals in the all-around, vault, and floor, bronze on balance beam, and gold as part of the United States team, dubbed the ""Final Five"". At the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, where she was favored to win at least four of the six available gold medals, she withdrew from most of the competition due to ""the twisties"", a temporary loss of air awareness while performing twisting elements. She won a silver medal with her team and a bronze medal on the balance beam; the team was nicknamed ""Fighting Four"" as a tribute to the adversity they faced. At the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, she became the first American woman to win two Olympic all-around and vault titles, the first woman of any nation to do so since Věra Čáslavská in 1964 and 1968, and the second woman ever to have won 2 Olympic all-around and at least 2 World all-around titles. She also won silver on floor and gold as part of the United States team, who were nicknamed ""Golden Girls"".
Biles is a six-time World individual all-around champion at the 2013, 2014, 2015, 2018, 2019 and 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships, six-time World floor exercise champion (2013–2015, 2018–2019, 2023), four-time World balance beam champion (2014–2015, 2019, 2023), two-time World vault champion (2018–2019), and was a member of the gold medal-winning United States teams (2014–2015, 2018–2019, 2023). She is also a four-time World silver medalist (2013–2014 and 2023 on vault, 2018 on uneven bars), a three-time World bronze medalist (2015 on vault, 2013 and 2018 on balance beam), and a nine-time United States national all-around champion (2013–2016, 2018–2019, 2021, 2023–2024).
In 2019, Biles broke the record for most World Championship medals in gymnastics; she won her 24th and 25th medals at the event, surpassing Vitaly Scherbo's 23 World medals. Biles has since secured an additional five World medals, for a total of 30. She holds the record for World all-around titles , and is the sixth woman to win an individual all-around title at both the World Championships and the Olympics, the first since Lilia Podkopayeva in 1996 to hold both titles simultaneously. Biles is the tenth female gymnast and first American female gymnast to win a World medal on every event, and the first female gymnast since Daniela Silivaș in 1988 to win a medal on every event at a single Olympic Games or World Championships.
In 2022, President Joe Biden awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In 2023, she won her eighth U.S. Gymnastics title, breaking the 90-year-old U.S. Gymnastics title record previously held by Alfred Jochim. Biles has won the Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year thrice (2017, 2019, 2020), and Comeback of the Year once (2024).

Happy 78th birthday to James Woods, born April 18, 1947!
❤️ Get your t-shirt: https://luvfamilytee79.com/campaign/s44ame
Woods’ career gained major traction in the 1980s, a decade that showcased his intensity and range—qualities that would define his work going forward. After rising to prominence in The Onion Field (1979), he quickly became known for complex, fast-talking characters who often walked the line between charm and volatility.
In 1983, Woods starred in David Cronenberg’s Videodrome, a sci-fi psychological thriller that earned cult status and demonstrated Woods’ ability to ground surreal material with unnerving realism. A year later, he played Max Bercovicz in Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in America, opposite Robert De Niro—a performance he considers one of his personal favorites. That same year, he starred in Against All Odds, continuing a run of varied, high-profile roles.
He earned his first Oscar nomination for his portrayal of journalist Richard Boyle in Oliver Stone’s Salvador (1986), and just a year later, won his first Primetime Emmy for the TV film Promise. He added a second Emmy for My Name Is Bill W. (1989), solidifying his reputation as a force in both film and television.
By the end of the ‘80s, Woods had carved out a unique place in Hollywood—respected for his intensity, intelligence, and willingness to take risks with difficult characters. These qualities led to acclaimed roles in the '90s and beyond, from Casino and Nixon to Ghosts of Mississippi (earning him a second Oscar nomination) and Contact. His work as the voice of Hades in Disney’s Hercules (1997) introduced him to a new generation, and he continued working across genres, including in the legal drama Shark and the animated series Justice League Action.
Woods has maintained a presence in film, TV, and voice work across decades, with a career shaped in no small part by the risks and recognition he earned in the 1980s.

Riders Beneath the Moon
Beneath the silver, whispering sky,
The riders move, their spirits high.
A river of hoofbeats, steady, strong,
They carry the echoes of ancient song.
Feathers gleam in the moon’s embrace,
Each face a shadow, each shadow a face.
Their eyes reflect the stars above,
Bound by silence, by land, by love.
The prairie sighs beneath their tread,
Where ancestors walked, where prayers were said.
The grasses bend, the night wind calls,
And time dissolves in their endless thrall.
They ride not forward, nor back in time,
But circle the earth in a chant sublime.
Through them the spirit, unbroken, flows,
Where the moonlight lingers, the memory grows.

Spotted Tail – Warrior, Chief & Negotiator
Spotted Tail (Siŋt Glesk, birth name T'at'aŋka Napca "Jumping Buffalo"; born c. 1823 - died August 5, 1881) was a Brul Lakota tribal chief. He was known as "The Orphan Negotiator." Although a great warrior in his youth, and having taken part in the Grattan massacre, he declined to participate in Red Cloud's War. He had become convinced of the futility of opposing the white incursions into his homeland; he became a statesman, speaking for peace and defending the rights of his tribe. He made several trips to Washington, D.C. in the 1870s to represent his people, and was noted for his interest in bringing education to the Sioux.
