- Title
Sex and Gender in Native America.
- Authors
ROSARIO, VERNON
- Abstract
The article discusses sex and gender in Native America and gives insights into Gregory D. Smithers' book "Reclaiming Two-Spirits: Sexuality, Spiritual Renewal and Sovereignty in Native America," which presents an LGBT-affirmative history of gender-fluid Native Americans and how they had been valued as shaman healers within Indigenous communities. It mentions that since 1990, the term Two-Spirit has come to mean many things: "LGBT Native Americans"; or those who blend male and female spirits.
