O'siyo
to all, I am Bright Sun ,
I am honored to be the
new Clan Chief of
Virginia and acting Clan
Chief of North Carolina
and West Virginia. I am
from Virginia, I was born
on Assateague island on
the Eastern shore, where
my father and mother
lived in a log cabin
where the horses run free
in the ocean and
woodlands.
My
heritage comes from many
generations of Cherokee
and Apache. I am a
storyteller,I have shared
many legends of our
culture and heritage. I
have taught many lessons
of our life through my
stories I also am one of
the co-founders and
council of the United
Indian Nation, I hold the
Eastern gate to the
sacred circle of our
unity
The
examples I have learned
from, have been elders
very close to me in
spirit, I have learned
any sacred ways from
native people, from many
places, that gave of
their heart and time to
make sure that I learned
in the proper way.
I
owe my brothers Red Hawk,
Blackhawk and Swamp Rat
for guiding me in all
times and for giving me
the honor of being their
sister and sharing their
life and times and also
for watching over me!
My
son Sparrow Hawk is
my gift from the Creator,
he grew up in the Native
American life and has
embraced everything with
wisdom beyond his years
and learned to walk in
two worlds with pride.
As
the Clan Chief of
Virginia, I will share
everything with Sparrow
Hawk, for one day he
will take my place as a
teacher and leader of the
next generation to follow
us, my intentions are to
be available to all
members and Chiefs and to
make everyone proud. We
will share many meetings,
gatherings and powwows
where we will unite and
grow to know each
other Our ancestors
are very proud of us, for
in prayer their spirits
see us, hear us and walk
with us.
