2SLGBTQIA+

We all carry feminine & masculine energy, body and spirit evolution. Our 2SLGBTQIA+ & Naadleehí relatives are inherently belonging, knowing, and forever in our communities.


We recognize the historical, oppressive, and environmentally caused traumas that challenge our traditional ways of being. We all embody and should identify our unique strengths of both Bi’áád (feminine) and Bi’kà’ (masculine).


Wingbeat 88 loves and respects 2SLGBTQIA+ Dilbaa & Nádleehí identities as knowledge holders, story-tellers, artists, advocates, mediators, ceremonial practitioners and medicine people carrying universal knowledge given to them though dreams and ancestral memory. 


Kinship & family acceptance is essential to the well-being of 2SLGBTQIA+ and Naadleehí children & youth. Our goal is to educate our communities, confront the violence on gender identities due to colonization and restore our traditional value and kinship relations to all relatives.

Nádleehí

Nádleehí (Diné lens) – root of the word is “changing” “fluidity” around what we now understand as gender and sexuality. This represents the bridge between and what is implied alchii sila –the balancing of the complementaries. And that balance represents hózhó.

Dilbaa

Dilbaa is the Diné word for a fourth-gendered person who’s biological make up is female but they live out their daily life as a male, in other words they are a Male-bodied Female.  Because colonization has made it so that myself and other Dilbaa have had to hide that side of themselves our history has also experienced erasure.

a blog by TSOS

Utilizing the profundity of past, present, and speculative 2SLGBTQ+ literature, ephemera, music, and film, My Dilbaa Dreams is a space for looking back, above, below, and onward to go forward.

"With this blog/space I’d like to “dream” or imagine how and where third and fourth-gendered people

like me hold space for each other (other non-binary/Two-Spirit Indigenous people) and what roles do we take up in our post-apocalyptic existence where knowledge of our experience has nearly been wiped out."

Sharing pronouns!

     

Practice sharing your pronouns when introducing yourself and invite others to share as well. Example: “Hello, my name is _____, my pronouns are they/them/theirs, and I’m a citizen of the ______ [Tribal] Nation.” The more we create these opportunities to express ourselves, the more welcoming it can become for those who often feel isolated or dismissed by our communities.
