Written by a Two-Spirit Author
Two-Spirit is a term used by some Indigenous North American peoples to describe individuals who embody both masculine and feminine qualities or occupy a unique cultural role that blends gender roles. This term is not a direct translation of a single concept but rather an umbrella term that reflects diverse gender identities within different Indigenous cultures.
