This beautiful sculpture was built by the Irish people in their own country to honor the American Choctaw Indian tribe. They were grateful because in 1847 the Choctaw people sent money to Ireland when they learned that Irish people were starving due to the potato famine. The Choctaw themselves were living in hardship and poverty, having recently endured the Trail of Tears.
And that is a lesson in how to be a person in this world.
Kindred Spirits is a large stainless steel outdoor sculpture in Bailick Park in Midleton, County Cork, Ireland. The shape of the feathers is intended to represent a bowl of food.

A woman from New York was driving through a remote part of Arizona when her car broke down. An American Indian on horseback came along and offered her a ride to a nearby town.
She climbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off. The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the Indian would let out a Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a!' so loud that it echoed from the surrounding hills and canyon walls.
When they arrived in town, he let her off at the local service station, yelled one final 'Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a!' and rode off.
"What did you do to get that Indian so excited?" asked the service-station attendant. "Nothing," the woman answered "I merely sat behind him on the horse, put my arms around his waist, and held onto the saddle horn so I wouldn't fall off."
"Lady," the attendant said, "Indians don't use saddles."

Zitkála-Šá: The Musician Who Reclaimed Her Identity
In the late 1800s, Zitkála-Šá, a young Native American girl, was sent to a boarding school designed to strip her of her heritage and erase her identity. But instead of conforming, she mastered classical music and forged a new path. Her immense talent as a musician became the vehicle for her cultural revival.
By 1913, she had co-composed the first American Indian opera, a groundbreaking fusion of Native American melodies with European classical forms, marking a significant milestone in the world of music and culture. Through her music, Zitkála-Šá didn’t just compose symphonies; she composed a narrative of resistance, blending the traditional with the contemporary to carve out a space for her people.
But her brilliance didn’t end with music. Using her platform, Zitkála-Šá became one of the leading activists for Native American rights, fighting for her people’s recognition and justice. Her legacy is more than notes on a page; it is a symphony of resilience, reclaiming what was lost, and standing firm in the face of cultural erasure.
