"I opened the door that morning and the world seemed to right itself, as if all those years had meant nothing but waiting for that one moment."

Wonderful. Indian boarding schools, indigenous knowledge, community.

How in touch with nature the Native Americans were and still are has always amazed me. This is a good story of preserving culture, family, health and the seeds that grow from the earth to feed and keep us healthy. The story is a good reminder that we as humans should leave things as nature intended. Although slow in parts, the Seed Keeper is a story that will make you think and perhaps inspire you to plant your own garden. 🪴
OK historical narrative but I expected it to be more interesting. She met some kind people among them.
Starting this short account of a woman's captivity by the Sioux [Dakota or other] right after the Indian troubles in Minnesota in 1862.
