The precious sequel to the now-classic Lakota Woman, Ohitika Woman practices Mary Brave Bird as she remains her powerful, dramatic tale of historical glory and present anguish, of courage and despair, of magic and secret, and, above all, of the success of both mind and body. Coming home from Wounded Knee in 1973, committed to American Indian movement leader Leonard Crow Dog, Mary was a mom with the expectation of a better life. But, as she says, "Trouble always detects me." With brutal frankness she bares her innermost thoughts, recounting the dark as well as the glowing occasions in her always eventful life. She not only discusses the stark truths to be a Native American moving into a white-dominated contemporary society but also addresses the experience to be a mother, a woman, and, rarest of most, a Sioux feminist. Filled up with contrasts, courage, and strength, Ohitika Woman is a powerful testament to Mary's will and soul.
