Because the Lipan do not have a reservation (since my ancestors refused to leave our homeland in TX during the Federal Indian removal years), my grandmother had to worry about being separated from her family and deported to a country that wasn’t her home.

My Newbery-honor book, A Snake Falls to Earth, has been challenged…but not because of its contents. From the link below: “Despite the book’s lack of sexual content, violence, or vulgar language, it became a target due to the author, Darcie Little Badger, identifying as asexual.” Bruh. What a world.

Reminder that my Indigenous (Lipan Apache) grandmother was not considered a citizen until later in life. If we hadn’t found her baptismal record, we’d have no evidence of her birth in Texas.
