“Yá’át’ééh, Shí eí Kassie John yinishyé. Diné Bikéyah déé’ naashá. Diné asdzání nishłj.  Greeting’s relatives and my fellow Indigenous Womxn, this is a project documenting the interconnected, transdisciplinary and my own beloved journey exploring and expanding upon our identities as Indigenous, Native, First-Nations Womxn. Where I will be illustrating a few aspects of our indigeneity, showcasing a snapshot of our cultural and political presence. While telling stories of our sisterhood and discussing our immediate impacts within our own communities, this is a series designed for social impact using Instagram as platform to share our power, strength, and resiliency for all to see. By shifting the cultural narrative back to our people, citing and sourcing role models and key figure heads in our Womxn community.”
