Mary Colter was an incredible lady. I love how she integrated native American architecture with the landscape. The Hopis are an intriguing tribe. My understanding is that the Hopi are the only tribe never to have signed a treaty with the dominant power, the U.S. As a people, they have refused to be separated from their Creator, even after massive acculturation attempts on their tribe. My question is, do they hold the key for the future of humanity? The prophecies of their elders are a must-read in my opinion for everyone. 🪶
What an informative read! Colter really showed a lot of awareness and sensitivity in her research & in hiring Native American artists. Ahead of her time.
Thank you, Jan! Love it! 🤗
