by Zitkala-Sa (aka Gertrude Simmons Bonnin 1876-1938)
Written in 1902. When the spirit swells my breast I love to roam leisurely among the green hills; or sometimes, sitting on the brink of the murmuring Missouri, I marvel at the great blue overhead. With half closed eyes I watch the huge cloud shadows in their noiseless play upon the high bluffs opposite me, while into my ear ripple the sweet, soft cadences of the river's song. Folded hands lie in my lap, for the time forgot. My heart and I lie small upon the earth like a grain of throbbing sand. Drifting clouds and tinkling waters, together with the warmth of a genial summer day, bespeak with eloquence the loving Mystery round about us. During the idle while I sat upon the sunny river brink, I grew somewhat, though my response be not so clearly manifest as in the green grass fringing the edge of the high bluff back of me. At length retracing the uncertain footpath scaling the precipitous embankment, I seek the level lands where grow the wild prairie flowers. And they, the lovely little folk, soothe my soul with their perfumed breath.

    Collaborative Projects Support Girls and Women and Girls in Science, Math, Engineering and Technology
    SIROW is initiating two new projects this year that will engage girls and women in the scientific and technical fields where they remain under-represented. The programs serve students from middle school through community college and university levels. They complement existing efforts that work with elementary and high school girls, as well as undergraduate women. Futurebound, a collaboration with Pima Community College, has been funded for almost $900,000 by the National Science Foundation. A comprehensive, three-year program, it aims to increase the enrollment, retention, and graduation of women, especially women of Hispanic and American Indian origin, in curricula leading to BS and graduate degrees in astronomy, non-health biosciences, chemistry, physics, engineering, technology, and related fields. Mentoring, support services, and a two-semester internship program in University of Arizona labs will be provided for women transferring from Pima Community College to the University of Arizona. The project is being directed by Katrina Mangin (Ecology and Evolutionary Biology) and Marie Reyes (SIROW) and led by Ann Christiansen for Pima Community College. A grant from the American Association of University Women is supporting a collaboration with MESA (Mathematics Engineering Science Achievement) to offer Frontera Grrls Computer Clubs in middle schools in low income areas of Tucson. The girls will design their own activities and will prepare projects to present at the annual Expanding Your Horizons conference at the University of Arizona in Spring, 2003. Marie Reyes will also direct this project for SIROW.

    G ertrude Simmons Bonnin faced, and to the extent it was humanly possible, overcame or sidestepped almost all the same problems in a much more severe form of that time that still face educated, intelligent Indian women today. Her life, efforts, and achievements are a fitting role model of intellectual and charismatic political leadership at a time when women (much less Indian women) were supposed to have no brains, and be happy, quiet mothers. S he has been described by one critic (Dexter Fischer) as "...always on the threshhold of two worlds, but never fully entering either." It seems to me more that from a position in the white world that she created in the teeth of a world as hostile to intelligent women leaders as to Indians, she created changes and improvements in the Indian world to which she was born. Though she was a mixed-blood or half-breed, she did not have identity problems as to which world was hers. G ertrude Simmons Bonnin (Zitkala Sha). was born to Ellen

    Zitkala-Sa
    A Biography:
    By Roseanne Hoefel
    A vital link between the oral cultures of tribal America and the literate culture of contemporary American Indians, Gertrude Bonnin was the third child of Ellen Tate 'I yohiwin Simmons, a full-blood Yankton Sioux. Born in 1876 on a Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota and known as Zitkala-Sa, which means Red Bird, she was raised in a tipi on the Missouri River until she was 12 when she went to a Quaker missionary school for IndiansWhite's Manual Institutein Wabash, Indiana. Though her mother was reluctant to let her go to the boarding school she herself had attended when young, she wanted to ensure her daughter's ability to fend for herself later in life among an increasing number of palefaces. As with many uprooted children, Zitkala-Sa returned after three years to a heightened tension with her mother and ambivalence regarding her heritage. The assimilationist schooling left her "neither a wild Indian, nor a tame one," as she later described herself in "The School Days of an Indian Girl" (1900). Four years later, Zitkala-Sa re-entered school, graduated on to Earlham College to become a teacher, remaining socially reclusive even after congratulatory gestures by schoolmates when she won oratory contests. As a student at the Boston Conservatory she went to Paris in 1900 with Carlisle Indian Industrial School (CIIS) as violin soloist for the Paris Exposition. Increasingly, she devoted herself to her people's cause and to overcoming her own cultural alienation through her fiction, as expressed in her 1901 collection

    Gertrude Simmons Bonnin ( Zitkala-Sa
    The daughter of a Sioux mother and a white father, Gertrude Simmons Bonin spent her early childhood on the Yankton Reservation in what is now South Dakota. At age eight, she left the reservation to embark on an education that included attending a Quaker-run school in Indiana and a normal training school for Indians in Nebraska. In 1895 she embarked on two years of study at Earlham College, where she studied music and distinguished herself as an orator. Throughout her student years, Bonin demonstrated great potential and many talents. But it always nagged at her that these educational opportunities were uprooting her from her Native American culture and calling on her to assimilate into a white society where neither she nor other Native Americans were especially welcome. That thought festered even more when Bonin became a teacher at the Carlisle Indian School in Pennsylvania, where assimilation of the students was a primary goal. In an article about her Carlisle experience for the Atlantic
    Among her first efforts to deal with this sense of rootlessness was the compilation of some of the Native American lore that she had heard as child, entitled

    From 500 Great Books by Women; review by Jesse Larsen

    Zitkala-sa, renamed Gertrude Simmons by Catholic missionaries, was one of the first Sioux women to write the stories and traditions of her people. The first set of stories in this collection is autobiographical. Zitkala-sa describes living in her mother's wigwam on the Yankton Reservation at the edge of the Missouri River where she is "as free as the wind that blew my hair, and no less spirited than a bounding deer." Until she is eight years old, Zitkala-sa's only fear is "that of intruding myself upon others." Then, despite her mother's objections, she is enticed by visions of endless apple trees and the excitement of riding on "the iron horse" and leaves her mother for school in the east. Although Zitkala-sa goes on to become a teacher, she never stops questioning "whether real life or long-lasting death lies beneath this semblance of [white] civilization." The second half of the book contains stories based on her family's tradition of oral history. The Trial Path describes the course of tribal justice after a murder. Tusee

    "Hafen (Univ. of Nevada, Las Vegas) has done a great service to the study of American Indian literature by collecting in one book several published and unpublished pieces. Especially important is the inclusion of The Sun Dance Opera , a controversial, little-known opera that was performed only once, when it was first written. Scholars of Zitkala-Sa in particular and of American Indian women's writing in general will find this a wonderful and enlightening collection. . . . No other collections of Zitkala-Sa's work offer such extensive biographic notes, bibliography, and commentary." Choice "[A] collection of writings by one of the most prominent Native American activists and writers of the 20th century. Editor P.Jane Hafen supplies much helpful autobiographical background." Library Journal Zitkala-Sa (Red Bird) (1876–1938), also known as Gertrude Simmons Bonnin, was one of the best-known and most influential Native Americans of the twentieth century. Born on the Yankton Sioux Reservation, she remained true to her indigenous heritage as a student at the Boston Conservatory and a teacher at the Carlisle Indian School, as an activist in turn attacking the Carlisle School, as an artist celebrating Native stories and myths, as a violin soloist performing at the Paris Exposition of 1900, and as an active member of the Society of American Indians in Washington, DC. All these currents of Zitkala-Sa's rich life come together in this book, which presents her previously unpublished stories, rare poems, and the libretto of
