Started this awhile ago and decided to pick it back up. It's been so long, I had to find a place to start re-reading.

For my #taino family, my current library. If you're just starting to learn about our people, these are some of the best books to start with.

Seeking the ways of my ancestors
Buried beneath the years
Hidden by those who fear
The fire and wisdom of Ancients.

Finally done. I actually finished the bulk of it last year (awhile ago), but the indexes/appendices didn't interest me as much so took me a bit.

I was asked what is the difference between gods and taino cemis (my understanding is they weren't seen as gods but spirits).

I think I may have been guided to an answer while reading tonight.

Ancient roots. Modern hands. This necklace was made the way our ancestors intended by hand, with heart, and with culture at its core. Arawak heritage never dies.

Another one I just finished. I started it last year or earlier, but again got distracted from the index/appendices.

This store was born from a deep desire to honor the indigenous peoples of the Arawakan culture and all communities who came before us. People who lived in harmony with the land, who carried love and wisdom in their traditions, and whose voices were silenced by colonization.

It's funny to me that I have so many issues with actual storms but also have the most affinity with Guabancex, the cemi of storms.
