Fedelia Cross from the Pine Ridge Reservation, on Leonard Peltier and a new school to teach Lakota language and culture
Please join with us on this program in considering the needs of those who may not be trans-identified but who are actively supportive of transpeople. The Transgender Community benefits from the support given our cause by artists and activists struggling against other kinds of prejudice and bigotry. Let us return the favor in kind. By this collaboration, we all become stronger.

Laetitia Kore is a young West African singer and poet and actress, member of The Theatre Offensive (Boston's GLBT theatre group) and artist in residence at Zeitgeist Gallery in Cambridge. Laetitia tells the story of how she found her voice shortly after coming to this country, when a falling out with her sister left her broke and homeless. We talked with her about her story, her music and her inspiration, and she performs one song for us (Wierd Child, 43:21-45:19) and we play a recent recording that she brought with her into the studio (49:43-54:41).

Fedelia Cross (fedelia_cross@hotmail.com) is a teacher and supporter of Leonard Peltier who has knowledge of what happened on the Pine Ridge Reservation that resulted in Leonard's imprisonment on false charges. Her grandparents' house was shot up by angry government agents following the murder of two agents. Fedelia tells us about the school she and Leonard are putting together to teach the Lakota language and culture to their young tribal members, and talks about Leonard's physical suffering due to his wrongful incarceration.
