About this listen
I was nine years old when I asked for a ring at a Pow Wow—a little play thing, probably 50 cents, sitting in a foam slot in a plain box. It caught the light just enough to make me feel like a princess. I asked for it the way children ask before they've learned to shrink their wants down to something more acceptable. She said yes.
That night, my mother made me give it back.
I didn't know it then, but something got written into my body that lived there for decades. This episode is about what gets handed to us before we have words for it, and what becomes possible for our children when we finally decide to look at it.
