because of catholic missionaries theres no name for two spirit in my ancestors language dane-za zaage also known as beaver, my family was disconnected many generations ago because of missionaries. what language is left is dependent on what those catholic missionaries basically "allowed" to exist. i hope to help revitalize the language as well as connect to my two spirit identity if i can.

There are two spirits in this world. A spirit of the living and a spirit of the dead. You are deceiving yourselves. Two people of the same sex can not participate in the game of life simply because they can not replicate. You can not make right wrong or up down to justify your sin. You can not enter the "straight gate" by way of the narrow road that leads to everlasting life because you chose the broad road to the land of the dead. I'm sorry you have chosen wrongly😢

No one putting them on hormones or trying to mutilate them as children. How interesting who knew that if u let gay people grow up without messing with them then they are fine. Trans ing children is still child abuse.

Two-Spirit people are all about ballence, but where was the equal representation in this film? Where were the Lesbians, or 4th gendered people??? L. Frank is a Two-Spirit Lesbian who's Indigenous to the L.A. area,....she should've been in this documentary! Plus other Lesbians. It's just ANOTHER case of men only thinking about themselves,...their stories only. It's interesting how even gay men fall into the mainstream patriarchal miopic mindset of wrongly assuming that their stories are the only ones that matter. This film is a prime example of this one sided exclusionary practice. NOT GOOD.👎

Yes. Also noteworthy is gay kids left to grow up are fine Noone felt to start puberty blockers or mutilating their sex organs. This is good for the gay community but as u say ignores lesbians( as usual) and does nothing to support the diabolical ops that are currently being performed on children. Neither do these people seek to eradicate the rights of women and children as trans network does.

So the homosexual lobby has brainwashed the North American indians. I thought they were going to leave them alone. After all, their can´t be many left. But instead of encouraging childbearing, so that they at least have a theoretic chance to survive as a people, they pull their destructive and ultraliberal agenda. And don´t give me some bullshit about some two-spirit mumbo jumbo. Give me a break. This is so fucking stupid. Their trying to convince themselves and the public that it´s a spiritual thing, very natural, from a pure existens this forms into man bla bla bla bla. Haven´t heard tendentious shit like this in a while. How can anyone believe in this nonsense? My heart goes out to these brainwashed men.

Well, we should love our neighbors as we do ourselves and our own families.. There is only one race. and that is that is the Human Race. The Two Legged. We are all brothers and Sisters. No reason to harm or hate one of our brothers and sisters because they are different from us. Every person has their own path they were given by The Creator. They have a right to a good life and right to be happy just as we all do. Blessings to you and your good heart.

As well as having two spirits the transgender, gays and lesbians were born of a important purpose. The native Indians knew they are important and put them on higher shelf as in future they'd serve mankind in a life saving way..They were not born of Amy psychiatric disorder or just confused. Higher power created these beings for population control..They ate essential for our survival and should be respected. It was no accident they are born this way. It was life's survival.

yes, good but incomplete, one sided. The video misses a large proportion of the two spirit people, the transgender, gender variant as well as the gay women who are also part of this tradition.

Two-Spirit Two-Spirit never forget who you are. A light to this world as bright as a star. You are born as healers to humanity. Together we can cure it's insanity. Mother Earth gave you this gift. Of two-spirits to heal this rift. Once seen as sacred and pure. Now a sinner the Abrahams abhor. Persecuted you are but strong is your heart. Shine a light to the world to pave this new start. Two-Spirit you are the visionaries of earth. Through your sacred guidance we will see a rebirth.

nickclark89 The message of the Christ was unconditional love and spoke the Golden Rule. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. There are plenty of Christians who work hard for social justice (as did the Christ). It seems like that loudest ones are the reactionary conservative ones who focus more on judging others (like the Pharisee) vs following the message of the Christ.
