"At a Sundance they prayed for me..." "Do those braids make you Ute?" "I had a younger brother and I loved him dearly..." "One night they heard somebody by the door..." "She would bring pickles...so delicious!" "Value yourself as a woman, stand up for your rights..." "Always connect with your traditional ways to come down to earth." "The drum is our heartbeat...you need to keep that heartbeat going..." "Running, I always see something different out there..." "I never had new clothes. Everything was from Goodwill." "I'd never seen a rat as big as a cat until I was in Vietnam..." "You had chopped off your brothers' braids, but I could not get mad...." "There's no such thing as 'uncivil' and...'poverty' and 'racism'...in Ute..." "You get home, you're so happy, and then all of sudden something changes..." "As soon as I kicked it, I just took off running toward the sidelines..." "Bear Dance makes us uniquely Ute..." "Growing up, we didn't have a hang out spot..." "One time, I took a whipping in school for a friend..." "Dialysis was kind of like a jail, like a prison....." "We wore earrings because we disobeyed..." "They called me 'little white boy', 'Cracker', 'Opie'..." "Why did I always have to play the cowboy?" "Our tribe never talked about being gay..." "Worship songs are some of the oldest ceremonies the Ute people have." "My dad had a partner...he looked just like Roy Rogers..." "The drum represents our mother's heart..." "You get to a point where you think you're invincible..."
