I just yelled a bit too loudly to my wife when I opened this newsletter. She’s Kelli Jo Ford, one of the writers featured at the festival! In fact, she’s planning to jet off in the next few days. Thanks so much for highlighting this event and Native writers and artists. What a wonderful interview!

“ We’re so accustomed to being the only indian in the room. What happens to the way we speak when that’s not the case?” This is so well said and I think pinpoints what excites me about the fact that this festival is happening.

Also, wow: “ the real American dream is the dream of living without a past” This resonates mightily.
