Te Ata,
Storyteller Stellar of the Chickasaw,
Bearer of the Morning — Star Dawning beautiful tales of Native American Culture.
Where Living Legends Alive show us the way— human respect and kindness towards all.
So Princess Te performs on stage — that which the Code of Indian Offenses banned by law,
Being Native American, somehow being deemed against “civilization,” a crime, a flaw.
Yet it was white savages who brutally forced upon The Tribal Nations, upon the Chickasaw,
The Trail of Tears so fatal — The Indian Removal Act — to faraway Oklahoma.
Yet No Hatred. No Revenge. Her civil rights performances — just Universal Harmonia!
“Many Colors … Many Creatures … Many People … All are one!” chants Ms. Ata
Just a celebration of the magic of the natural world, of our worth, wisdom, and ideas;
Just Spirited Simple Splendor— where ceremonial dances, drums— “Mi, yammak illa!”-
Songs, stories traditional— gladdened hearts, opened minds, of royalty and presidential, of all equals who saw.
Hee’-ya! Hi-ya! This Artist
