Prior to contact with European settlers, most Native American tribes held their two-spirit members in high esteem, even considering them spiritually advanced. However, after contact--and religious conversion--attitudes changed and social and cultural support networks were ruptured. This discrimination led to a breakdown in traditional values, beliefs, and practices, which in turn pushed many two-spirit members to participate in high-risk behaviors. The result is a disproportionate number of two-spirit members who currently test positive for HIV. Using surveys, focus groups, and community discussions to examine the experiences of HIV-positive members of San Francisco's two-spirit community, Indian Blood provides an innovative approach to understanding how colonization continues to affect American Indian communities and opens a series of crucial dialogues in the fields of Native American studies, public health, queer studies, and critical mixed-race studies"--Provided by publisher.Indigenous ConfluencesTwo-spirit peopleCaliforniaSan FranciscoSocial conditionsIndian gaysCaliforniaSan FranciscoSocial conditionsRacially mixed peopleCaliforniaSan FranciscoSocial conditionsRacially mixed peopleCaliforniaSan FranciscoEthnic identityHIV-positive gay menCaliforniaSan FranciscoSocial conditionsPublic healthCaliforniaSan FranciscoIndians of North AmericaColonizationSocial aspectsPsychic traumaSocial aspectsUnited StatesIntergenerational relationsUnited StatesSan Francisco (Calif.)Ethnic relationsElectronic books.Two-spirit peopleSocial conditions.Indian gaysSocial conditions.Racially mixed peopleSocial conditions.Racially mixed peopleEthnic identity.HIV-positive gay menSocial conditions.Public healthIndians of North AmericaColonizationSocial aspects.Psychic traumaSocial aspectsIntergenerational relations305.8009794/61Jolivétte Andrew1975-888615MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910466093503321Indian blood2091349UNINA
