Learn about We’wha, a Zuni Ihamana, non-binary individual, in this video from First Person: Classroom. Students explore the life and lasting impact of the famous Two-Spirit Zuni cultural ambassador, negotiator, religious leader, weaver, and potter using primary sources, discussion questions, teaching tips, vocabulary, and a short activity. In the late 1800s, while the white settlers, soldiers, and government agents were invading lands west of the Mississippi River—suppressing tribal cultures, forcing Native people into schools and onto reservations, and slaughtering those who would not capitulate, We’Wha traveled to Washington, D.C. to help document Indigenous Zuni culture. We’Wha neither conformed to Native American stereotypes or to Anglo-American norms.
